This week’s iCarly was an improvement from last week, but I’m still kinda frustrated from the lack of Creddie happening. They tossed the crumbs in the earlier eps this season, so I felt like the blossoming feelings ought to have been spread out across the season better by now? I’m assuming something ship-worthy will happen in these last eps, but I like a more slowburn pace, personally. Slow as in…there are hints but it is happening!! More than just sitting on a couch together like BFFs. LOL. Anyway.
Once again, Harper’s plot was pretty useless. The guy she had interest in was a jerk and weirdo from the beginning. I keep thinking Dutch is gonna return at some point and redeem her character, but I’m not positive if the actress is busy or something.
I actually sort of liked Carly’s plot with the dolls though. It wouldn’t have been realistic for her to get around the company by coming up with the perfect doll when the others had already been manufactured in mass supply. And I thought the dolls showed two pretty typical stereotypes of women in a funny but important way. I also liked the innocent little moment with the kid where she’s like, “I like dolls because they’re pretty.” Sure, it’s surface level thinking but the girl is literally like 4 and it’s a nice reminder that there’s no malice in a kid liking a doll for being pretty. It’s adults who try to impose all the politics & philosophies on dolls.
(also I’m like certain this ep was targeting American Girl Dolls for some reason, and I thought it was kinda a cool shot at a notoriously expensive company. All kids should have access to nice dolls!)
Don’t know what the point of the Josh Peck character is. He’s undeveloped and feels useless. This is a recurring issue. Pearl is way too underdeveloped for me to root for her right now. But I’m worried Paul (is that his name?) will become some kind of romantic interest for Carly, and I REALLY don’t want to see Josh Peck kiss Miranda Cosgrove LOL. I hope not!
The monkey plotline was expectedly ridiculous but it gave me a few laughs and felt really old school iCarly. I didn’t mind it so much.
Mostly - where is the romance?? I’m so ready for it, ugh.
