\\\"\\\'\\\'{{iCarly}}\\\'\\\': Freddie and Carly\\\'s follow the \\\'overtly paired off\\\' rule. The relationship has been the major non-comedic core of the show. Some would say the only such element, considering how much of the show is outright comedy. The only other viable pairings are the Sam/Freddie Love/Hate pairing which seems to have forgot the \\\'love\\\' part, [[LesYay Carly/Sam]] and [[MayDecemberRomance Spencer/Sam]] ships, which are both for all intents never going to happen. There is no guarentee that Carly/Freddie will happen either, not since the episode \\\'\\\'iStart A Fan War\\\'\\\' revolved around an AuthorTract about how DanSchneider disliked the way the fandom had focused on the {{Shipping}}, and not the \\\'stupid pointless comedy\\\'. No overt romantic development has occoured between any pairing in Season 4 bar a throw-away line about teenaged Sam(antha) having a crush on Carly\\\'s 29 year old older brother Spencer.\\\"

copying and pasting my topic from the FanPreferredCouple discussion, as it\\\'s the same issue:

...can freddie/carly be counted as an OfficialCouple if they were officially together for one episode and they broke up by the end of it, with them having no inclination whatsoever to get back together even one season later?

should be noted that the [[ICarly iCarly]] main page is also currently under scrutiny for bias and ship warring.

and i add: i guess this really doesn\\\'t apply after \\\'\\\'iOMG\\\'\\\'. at least not until we are shown the outcome of that cliffhanger. (talk about counting your chickens before they hatch...)
