And then we also wanted a big, crazy setting for it.
So I’m excited, because I think we hit all of that.
There’s heart, there’s hopefully plenty of humor, as usual.

But Carly’s love life is amping up.
I think we’re going to get a lot of feedback on this upcoming episode.
And I’m sure some people are going to love it, hate it, all of the above.

Victoria Justice and Michelle Obama appeared in the original ‘iCarly’ series.Nickelodeon (2)
She goes back to doingiCarlybut has to do it on her own.
And season 2, we want to explore more what that means.
That’s what we’re thinking right now.

We’ll see what people think when they watch.
This season the show has tackled pretty current issues, like predatory MLMs and toxic girlboss culture.
And that goes for famous and non-famous women alike.

This is just an existence people have, and the life that they live.
I love having characters from the original back.
It’s so fun.
We definitely wantMary Scheerback to play Mrs. Benson.
That sleepover episode was just a blast to shoot.
I know a ton of fans were really gung-ho on having Gibby [Noah Munck] and Sam back.
So I think it’s an either-or.
You’ve had really fun guest stars this season, from Christine Taylor to Josie Totah.
I would love to have Victoria Justice back on in any incarnation that she wants to be in.
That’d be really cool.
It’s just very complicated.
Jerry and Lacey are just kind of magic.
But for the most part, nothing’s really been that off-limits.
But they always work with us; standards is pretty good with us.
I loved Mirandarevisiting her “interesting…” memein “iFauxpologize.”
Whose idea was it to reference that?Oh gosh, it definitely came from the writers' room.
But she came in and said, “I want to do something with memes.”
We knew it would be fun for people, we had no idea.
I’m waiting to see people use the Millicent meme.
