Carly Shay’s adventures, portrayed by the iconic Miranda Cosgrove, have reached yet another conclusion. For those who have journeyed with Carly since her youthful days on iCarly, the news comes as a bittersweet finale. The revamped series, which made its home on Paramount+, will not be returning after its third season, as confirmed by Variety. Before the announcement took official form, Laci Mosley, recognized for her role as Harper, shared hints of the show’s fate via her social platforms, hinting at the show’s cessation.
In this updated spin of the classic, we see Carly transitioning into adulthood, a stark contrast to her younger self who grappled with youthful dilemmas. The very essence of restarting her famed web show is rooted in the success her ex-beau enjoyed online. Yet, as Carly re-immerses herself in content creation, she discovers her underlying passion, reminding her of why she embarked on this journey initially. This revival, undoubtedly, wouldn’t see the light of day without some pivotal characters from its original lineup.
Jerry Trainor and Nathan Kress, two indomitable figures, reprised their roles in the revival, ensuring fans got a dose of nostalgia. Reuniting with her on-screen brother and longtime best friend was a heartwarming affair for Carly, even as she navigated the new dynamics with her latest roommate, Harper. With a canvas prepped for a concoction of comedy and eccentric videos, the series offered a matured Carly for three remarkable seasons, until it was decided that her narrative had met its destination.
