The show garnered good feedback from the viewers, but the critics had mixed feelings about it.
Last year in June, Paramount+ released the show’s revival series that starred Miranda Cosgrove, Jerry Trainor, and Nathan Kress. If you wonder what the show was all about and are planning to give it a watch, this article will help you with it.
What Critic has to Say About iCarly?
According to our critic, iCarly is a show that had characters way ahead of the time it premiered. The show carries a unique storyline and is pretty likable in the first go itself. Although there isn’t any shortage of teen drama nowadays, but this one feels refreshing and distinctive.
But here’s the catch- the show will have to be watched from the beginning, from 2007 all the way upto 2012, to get thorough entertainment as it would not be that interesting if started midway. The show, with its relatable theme, houses many glitches, but its overall impact outweighs them.
The show carries its characters from their early teens to young adulthood, making the story highly relatable with the their problems and situations being close to the young generation. Even if the show were released now, it would outstand in so many ways.
Should You Stream or Skip iCarly?
Definitely, the show is high on our recommendation list. Starting from season 1, which shows the characters to be kids with cringey moments, the seasons 2 to 4 were commendable as the characters grew up and became mature enough. The subsequent seasons made the show appear to be a real teen show and thoroughly gripping. We would recommend you to stream it!
