Honestly, I'm still in love with iQuit iCarly. It was epic and awesome and shippy and even with all the Fleck and Dave being ARG GTFO I still LOOOOOOOVE THIS EPISODE SFM!!!!!!!

Cam is probably my biggest OTP of all time EVER.

I have thinky thoughts about this that I will elaborate on TOMORROW! However, I actually learned that iSYL was made BEFORE iQiC so that maybe explains why saving her life is a big deal despite Carly and Sam saving ONE ANOTHER in iQiC? IDK.

D: I hate it when production order isn't the same as airing order. I hope iSYL at least fits chronologically somewhat with iQiC. It was kind of weird enough when Freddie mentioned Lewbert NOT being in jail in iMove Out.

I await your thinky thoughts!

I didn't even really think of Dave's father as abusive, but you're right. Like, I didn't like Sam and Carly drawing comparisons from Fleck and Dave, because FLECK IS A CRAZY ASSHOLE WHO REALLY DOESN'T RESPECT/CARE ABOUT DAVE. Whereas, Sam LOVES Carly and would NEVER do anything that would really hurt her.

So yeah. The parallels were skewed. Sam's kind of dangerous and sometimes takes advantage of how thoughtful Carly is, but she also ADORES her and would die for her (almost did too!).

I love their crying jag at the end, because it really felt like the proper response to their horrible experience. And I love Spencer smooshing them together for a hug. <333333 ( ... )

In universe, I can see how they were probably projecting their own relationship onto Fleck and Dave's, even though it's very different. Like, Sam didn't see how horrible Fleck is to Dave, but just saw Fleck's side of the story, and Carly only saw Dave's frustration. That's the best explanation I can come up with ( ... )
