I'm a dad with a kinder daughter. I bought her iCarly because it's one of the better tween type sit coms on tv these days.

Nikelodeon made a good choice by giving Miranda Cosgrove her own show. She comes across sweet in this new techy type series which casts her and her friend Sam as the dynamic duo of the iCarly web show. The balance between the girls and Freddie (tech producer of the show) is just right with Carly's older brother Spencer adding more humor to the mix.

This dvd includes 13 episodes of the first season and many of them are fun to watch. Some of the better episodes include iHatch Chicks which has baby chicks running around Carly's aparment. iWanna Stay with Spencer, when Carly is almost taken by her grandfather due to Spencer being irresponisble. iScream on Halloween is another favorite. Also the iwant a World Record was a good idea.

The show works well because it mixes regular sit com camera angels along with first person shots when the girls are doing the web show. It gives the viewer the feeling that they are actually watching a web show.

I have to say that I prefer the way Carly comes across more than the popular Hannah Montanna show. Hannah Montanna tends to be mean spirited in several of her episodes which bugs me sometimes. Miley Cirus has lots of episodes where she is getting revenge or is loosing her temper and blowing up. In iCarly Miranda Cosgrove is more reserved and less spiteful. That role is left to Sam as she picks on Freddie. I would say Carly is similar to how Lizzie Mcgurie was. A good kid who messes up sometimes. She learns from her mistakes or is playing peace keeper between Sam and Freddie.

iCarly is worth the price considering the fact that you are getting 13 episodes. Disney likes to give you 4 or 5 at a time for the same price. Nickelodeon seems to know what a good deal is. Hopefully they keep it that way.

All in all iCarly is a great tween show with a new techy twist. A good buy if you like the show already. A great choice if you want to try it out. My daughter likes it too. THUMBS UP!

I have to admit, I like this show. Which is very strange coming from a 30 year old guy. I used to work for a friend taking care of her kids. So I was stuck most of the time watching kid shows. I come around to really enjoying this show. Although the show is not realistic at all, it's still a fun show. Even though I have moved on to another line of work I still find myself watching this on occasions.

As one reviewer admitted his age, I'll do the same and say I am a 48 year-old father of two teenagers that genuinely believes this is some of the best entertainment on TV right now. Light-hearted and usually very funny humor, no nasty/vulgar language, no sexual innuendo, and disrespect for adults is generally limited to people that deserve it (Miss Briggs, Lewbert, Mr. Howard, etc.) as opposed to adults in general. There is usually a simple but valuable lesson involved and the interplay between the kids seems genuine and not forced in any way. The chemistry of the actors is a superb mix of personalities and each one brings a unique flavor to the show. The feisty interplay between Freddy and Sam with Carly attempting unsuccessfully to be arbitrator is a big part of the charm. Another positive factor is that no two episodes use the same rhetoric. Miranda Cosgrove is a very talented young lady and her future seems bright indeed. It will be interesting to see what season 2 brings. Hopefully they will be able to keep things fresh and moving forward. These episodes will provide a lifetime of valuable entertainment. Buy it!! You will not be disappointed.

I must admit that I am a little bit of a sitcom fan, but one of them I don't like is "Drake and Josh." "iCarly," on the other hand, is the most funniest, smart, interesting and fun show I've ever seen. When I watch this, I laugh at the jokes whenever there is something about to happen. Mostly, my favorite characters have to be Sam and Spencer. Every single episode in this show never gets old. The gags are a crack up, the writing is fantastic and nothing seems to get in the way of it. "iCarly," I give you five stars!

I'm a 20 year old guy and It prob. sounds strange for a guy that is 20 that likes to watch a show like this. I love this show I find it's so funny. I have never seen one bad episode before. As they keep writing I think the show gets better and batter.

The first iCarly was funny. They are all funny though, I just remember the talent show being funny. I will be 26 years old this month and I still like this show because of the screwball comedy. In the first episode you can see how young they were when it began. It's pretty amazing to see them in the first episode and then see them on the show now, they grew so fast. 5 stars for comedy.

iCarly is a good tv show. Both of my daughters enjoy watching the show together. This was a good purchase and I will be buying more to add to the collection soon. I think the show is clever and entertaining. iCarly is one program that I can sit and watch with my kids.

So many videos these days are sort of questionable for the tweens. This age group has outgrown Barbie like films (for the most part) and is still a bit young for the older teen stuff. This show is amazingly interesting even for teens but also very modest and appropriate for the younger kids.

Am ordering the other available DVD's of this series and hope more are forthcoming. It was a refreshing surprise when we viewed it.

i love iCarly. im 23 years old and i don't care. when i would watch this little girl she always watched it and for some reason it just stuck on me. i think the characters are funny and its a pretty good show
