Alright! Just revamped my blog site and it looks GREAT! Anyway! On to the post!
This is the first time I'm writing a review here in my site. The blog title may seem "No Good" but that doesn't mean that I find this iCarly episode no good at all. On contrary, I find this one as one of the best episodes they've come up so far. It just so happens that I felt playing that song along while I was writing this (lol).
ANYWAY, The reason for this review is because a friend of mine kept on going and going about this iCarly premiere episode that made her lose her mind.
So many have watched the premiere of "iLost My Mind" of iCarly last August 13. Honestly? If I would rate it, it'd be 4.5 out of 5. It's a great episode to actually anticipate. The only thing that made me hold back from giving this a perfect 5 were:
- release date was too far from previous episode
- the unknown fact of how the fans of iCarly (inside the story) knew about the kiss between the two protagonists.
- why didn't they just let Spencer be a guy and sign Sam out (though this scene was fun lol)
- how they got the TV in the mental hospital work as if iCarly got control of it it (but I guess that's where fiction comes in lol)
- the first half of the episode felt like the characters were a bit off (though I think that's just me trying to observe things more lol)
But nevertheless, the situation was really unexpected (one of the things that makes me watch Dan's creations). My view now on this episode of iCarly is that they really got the essence of a mental institution (less the over security thing with automatic roll-up gates coming down lol).
Jim Parsons also played great in this episode, something I was really looking forward to. In my opinion, he should be a regular at iCarly.
Carly and the gang should bust him out of that mental institution and let him live at their apartment for the time being and see what kind of things he and Spencer could be doing along the succeeding episodes (hahaha). Even as a small role in the episode, he really made an impression of a mental patient.
Of course the very climax of this episode, was at the end where Freddie suddenly kisses Sam in an effort to let everyone know that his feelings should be considered as well. Something not everyone was expecting especially knowing what Freddie and Sam's relationship were in the whole series. This is actually where I could give a two thumbs-up scene that catches everyone off guard, and definitely made everyone get excited about the following episodes. I guess this really is a new chapter of their lives?
But some part of me made me ask myself, "Could this really happen between friends?" Sharing my point of view, I'm seeing this in an angle (and also basing on personal experience), where I think Freddie is just playing along the situation without knowing it himself yet. It's one of those "spur of the moment" things where you get all hyped up with everything and then in the end you'd end up saying "what the hell was I thinking?!". They're both still in a world revolving around a kiss that shocked them both and then just trying to get their opportunity out of it and trying to make it work especially since they are friends.
But if you'd make predictions out of the other three episodes that's coming out, it would seem (to me) that it's going to swing from a Seddie situation, to a Creddie situation. Here are my prediction sets:
SET A:
iLost My Mind - Freddie kisses back Sam
iDate Sam & Freddie - Freddie and Sam tries to make the most of it and actually enjoys their new relationship
iCan't Take It - Carly gets annoyed of the "new chapter" in their lives (as probably hinted at iLost My Mind) and actually realizes what she feels about Freddie
iLove You - Becomes an episode where Carly can't take it and confesses what she feels for Freddie.
SET B:
iDate Sam & Freddie - Freddie and Sam tries to make the most of what they have, but isn't really enjoying it.
iCan't Take It - Either one of them (Sam or Freddie) can't take each other's company and their relationship goes downhill
iLove You - Freddie realizes that he really loves Carly
SET C:
Same as Set B but on iLove You - Freddie realizes that he really loves Sam.
Which would you actually think that's going to happen? If you'd ask me I'm going with Set A. Let's see if these scenarios actually does come out. I may be wrong, but hey, it makes it more interesting if you think of it this way doesn't it?
Anyway, that's it for me reviewing this episode of iCarly. A very first review to iCarly I made, probably I can do more, but who knows. I have to continue and finish Battlestar Galactica. So if you guys want to know what happens next between the iCarly gang, wait for the following episode "iDate Sam & Freddie" on September 10, 2011 (Got the sked from wikipedia).
Now off to Netflix for me!! Ciao!
P.S. - Go +1 this post if you're done reading hahaha!
