User blog comment:Mobo85/The Ships Hit The Fan/@comment-1153194-20101126194629

Nice thread, and it's true of many shows and cartoons (Total Drama Island seems to be one of the most severe for 'shipping' that I've seen). People enjoy imagining who would be good for each other and who they would think would be good for the show, and as that episode of iCarly brought out, the show isn't about that (though you mentioned that Sam claimed to love Freddie, but she said that Carly and Freddie were dating to start the fan war). Phineas and Ferb is about kids, not dating (except with Candace and Jeremy, but I bet if Candace had any other option, their would be more shippers with her and some random guy [I haven't seen any Canbert shippers XD]). I personally think that people date too young, as is, but whatever. I try to focus on enjoying the show for what it is, not for reading into nuances.

The only issue I had with that episode of iCarly was the lingo. They had it down pat, but it was overly used, like fanboys and fangirls only use abbreviations and slang.

Also, I thought during the episode that Ducky Momo should make a cameo. XD
