tbh so weird to me that shows like iCarly and Jessie have like younger kids (the two i’m thinking of are both boys which might be relevant) who are so interested in relationships and will like. attempt to flirt with older characters. like it’s just really weird to me bc when i was the age they were that was honestly the last thing on my mind. also Freddie is like. 5. (not literally but he is YOUNG. i’m bad with ages but i’m guessing they’re supposed to be in 4th/5th grade maybe?) and he’s like…flirting with Carly from the very beginning of the show. i think luke’s a bit older but still. it’s also even more weird i think, since jessie is a full adult. idk idk it’s just weird. like, even when i was in middle school in my entire grade of like 150 people there were like. 5 “relationships” total. and all they really did was slow dance at the dances and hold hands maybe.

(although. maybe i’m just aro/arospec?)

#saf speaks #watching icarly now and in retrospect a lot of those shows had some problematic stuff #like they constantly make fun of anything that’s like. too weird to them. and also people from other countries which is :/#although icarly i think has this sort of difference where a lot of the characters themselves *are* really weird (specifically Spencer and #Gibby) so like. there’s some acceptance of that bc they’re also lovable and funny just like the rest of the characters. but like the show is #also judgemental towards other characters who are ‘weird’ which is interesting #icarly #jessie #**icarly
