Back when I was growing up, Icarly was one of my favorite shows to watch with my family. Whenever a new episode was airing we would all gather in the living room, turn on Nickelodeon, and watch it while eating our own Spaghetti Tacos (which of course is a staple to the show and the Fandom)! We did this until the show eventually came to an end, watching Icarly each and every week were some of the most fondest memories spent with my family so to say that I was looking forward to this revival of the series would be a huge understatement! I couldn't help but think about how amazing this could be. Icarly (2021) would've been introducing a whole younger generation to an incredible series from our childhoods while also reintroducing us to Carly, Freddy, Spencer, and all of our favorite and loveable Icarly characters. I thought that my family might even get back to watching a new episode every week together for old times sake! With that being said, I could not have been more let down by this series.. the heart and fun of the original series is pretty much entirely absent for this revival. The characters (including the ones that we grew up loving) are dull and hardly entertaining to watch, the social commentary is way overbearing, and Harper is simply no substitute for Sam! Sadly, the Revival is nowhere near the original in terms of heart, fun and overall entertainment.
