Season One of iCarly on DVD
September 30th, 2008 by ElizabethOkay, I have a confession to make- I like watching shows on Nickelodeon, even when my kids aren’t home. There are two shows I especially like, “Drake and Josh”, and “iCarly”. And interestingly, both star Miranda Cosgrove (”School of Rock”) too.
iCarly stars Cosgrove as 14 year old Carly, who along with her best friends Sam and Freddie, creates a weekly Web show called, of course, iCarly. It all begins when Carly is put in charge of the school talent show, along with her best pal Sam (Jennette McCurdy, a frequent guest star on sitcoms). Their friend Freddie (Nathan Kress, also a frequent sitcom guest star and voice actor) videotapes the auditions, along with Carly and Sam’s funny banter and comments, and posts it online. The show is so popular that their online viewers ask for more, and it turns into a regular Webcast with comedy sketches, interviews, people showing off their talents, and more.
Carly lives with her twenty-something brother Spencer (Jerry Trainor, “Crossing Jordan” and Crazy Steve on “Drake and Josh”) who is also her guardian, we know her Dad is in the military but there isn’t a mention of a Mom. There is an episode where Carly and Spencer’s Grandpa stops by. Spencer is a Sculptor, which is supposedly how he is paying the rent and utilities on their third floor loft studio apartment. Spencer has his share of mishaps and goofy situations, but it’s obvious Spencer truly cares for Carly.
The show is rated Y7, so you can feel comfortable having this DVD on even with younger kids in the room (there is the very rare, mildly inappropriate word like “that sucks”). You get all 13 episodes from Season 1, plus a disc of bonus features:
• “Leave It All to Me†Music Video
• Extended & Exclusive Making of the Music Video “Leave It All to Meâ€
• Behind-the-Scenes Extras
• Special Bonus Ringtone Offer! *For a limited time only, while supplies last. Standard text messaging rates and data charges may apply. Ask your parents for permission.
If your kids are fans of iCarly or know Miranda Cosgrove from Drake and Josh, this would be a great DVD to get for them! It’s nice to have DVDs to put in that the whole family can watch and that are fun and entertaining.
