If you’re a Nickelodeon kid, you may want to know how to watch the iCarly reboot online for free to see what your favorite characters are up to a decade later.

iCarly premiered in 2007 and followed Carly Shay (Miranda Cosgrove), a teenager in Seattle, Washington, who created her own web show named iCarly with her best friends, Sam Puckett (Jennette McCurdy) and Freddie Benson (Nathan Kress), in the apartment loft that she and her older brother, Spencer Shay (Jerry Trainor), live in. It didn’t take long for iCarly to become an internet phenomenon, and with their viral fame, Carly, Sam and Freddie found themselves in increasingly wacky situations. The show was created by Dan Schneider, who also created The Amanda Show, Drake & Josh, Zoey 101, Victorious and other Nickelodeon shows. iCarly ran for six seasons until its finale in 2012.

In December 2020, news broke that an iCarly reboot was in the works with Cosgrove, Kress and Trainor reprising their original roles. In March 2021, McCurdy confirmed in the episode of the podcast, “Empty Inside, that she would not be starring and had quit acting. “My mom put me in it when I was 6, and by sort of age, I guess, 10 or 11 I was the main financial support for my family,” she said. “It was very much the pressure of my family didn’t have a lot of money, and this was the way out,” she said, “which I actually think was helpful in driving me to some degree of success.”

She continued, “I ultimately quit after my mom passed away, because with her death kind of died a lot of her ideas for my life, and that was its own journey and a difficult one for sure.” She went on to reveal that her acting career left her “so unfulfilled by the roles that I played and felt like it was the most just cheesy, embarrassing” thing. She continued, “I resent my career in a lot of ways.” In the iCarly reboot, Laci Mosley was cast Harper, a new roommate of Carly’s.

Who is in the iCarly cast?

sThe iCarly cast includes Miranda Cosgrove, Nathan Kress and Jerry Trainor, who played Carly Shay, Freddie Benson and Spencer Shay in the original iCarly. Jennette McCurdy, who played Sam Puckett in the original iCarly, confirmed in an interview on the “Empty Inside” in March 2021 that she would not be in the revival because she had quit acting. “My mom put me in it when I was 6, and by sort of age, I guess, 10 or 11 I was the main financial support for my family,” McCurdy explained. “It was very much the pressure of my family didn’t have a lot of money, and this was the way out. Which I actually think was helpful in driving me to some degree of success.”

McCurdy’s mom, Debbie, died in September 2013 after a 17-year-long battle with breast cancer. On the podcast, McCurdy revealed that her mom’s death led her to reevaluate her acting career and roles she’s played in the past, including Sam. “I ultimately quit after my mom passed away, because with her death kind of died a lot of her ideas for my life, and that was its own journey and a difficult one for sure,” she said. She went on to reveal that her acting career left her “so unfulfilled by the roles that I played and felt like it was the most just cheesy, embarrassing” thing. She continued, “I resent my career in a lot of ways.”

In the iCarly reboot, Laci Mosley will play Harper, Carly’s roommate and one of her best friends. After the announcement of Harper, Mosley was the target of racist attacks from who saw the character as a replacement for Sam. iCarly writer Franchesca Ramsey responded in a tweet at the time, defending Mosley and denying that the character was meant to replace Sam. “Hey #iCarly tweeps! I’m seeing a looooot of racist abuse being hurled at one of our stars & I’d love if you’d join me in calling it out it when/if you see it,” she tweeted in May 2021. “I’m sad this has to be said but if I’m being honest…I kinda expected it. And I hate that. It’s heart breaking that Black women just EXISTING results in an onslaught of racist abuse. It’s not ok. And being a bystander isn’t ok either.”

She continued, “Laci’s character Harper isn’t replacing Sam. No one could replace Jeanette McCurdy or her incredible talent! But it’s both racist as hell & completely unfair to decide that Laci hasn’t earned her role especially since the show isn’t even out yet!!”
