ICarly (season 2)

Carly and Sam both develop a crush on Freddie's "nerd" pal, Shane (James Maslow). When they cannot decide who should date him they decide to go by the first one to kiss him, but he has to be the one to initiate it. They constantly try to get into situations where he is close to kissing them, but are always unsuccessful. Meanwhile, Spencer hires a repairman to fix the elevator, but the repairman proves to be no help at all. Because of the broken elevator, Shane accidentally falls down the elevator shaft from the iCarly studio to the basement, when he finds out that Sam and Carly are competing for him and angrily walks away from both. When they visit him at the hospital Carly kisses him while he is unconscious, but by then it is too late.

Special guest: James Maslow as Shane

In the first iCarly movie, the team, along with Spencer and Mrs. Benson, go to Japan when iCarly is nominated for the iWeb Awards. After an intensely dangerous ride, they are all sabotaged by two competing web show nominees: Kyoko (Ally Maki) and Yuki (Harry Shum Jr.). Their cousins wrap Spencer and Mrs. Benson in seaweed inside a massage room and lock the door. Spencer manages to get out of the seaweed, accidentally exposing his nudity to Mrs. Benson by showing he is special, and has to cover himself up with a towel telling her not to look and she does the same. Meanwhile Kyoko and Yuki ditch the trio in the middle of nowhere and flee. Carly, Sam and Freddie must return to Spencer and Mrs. Benson in time for the iWeb Awards.

When iCarly convince their viewers to vote for David Archuleta on America Sings, they cause him to win. They feel sorry for his opponent, Wade Collins (Alex Schemmer), who claims he wanted to win to help his sick mom. They try to help him out by creating a music video, but soon find out that he's a jerk. Meanwhile, Sam teaches Spencer to lie when he has a rented movie that is 10 years overdue. The team decides to get Wade back when they find that his mother was not sick. They give him the video and have David on the show, during which they show Wade's selfish behavior. Meanwhile Spencer fails to lie at the rental store, but the store owner reveals that it was a prank.

When Freddie offends international internet sensation Fred (Lucas Cruikshank), Fred tells all of his fans that he will not make any more videos. Carly, Sam, and Freddie soon start losing friends and acquaintances that are fans of Fred, and everybody at Ridgeway Junior High hates the iCarly group. They meet Lucas, Fred's creator and portrayer, in his home in Shelby, Idaho for Freddie to apologize to him about the Fred videos comment. Lucas later apologizes because he wasn't really mad; it was a publicity stunt meant to increase Fred and iCarly's ratings. At the end they apologize live during the iCarly webshow and present a new Fred video with Carly, Sam, Freddie, and Spencer guest starring as themselves with high-pitched voices like Fred (except for Carly who has her normal voice). Meanwhile, Spencer puts a Magic Eight Ball-like toy in control of his life, with disastrous results.

After an iCarly webcast, everyone celebrates Sam's birthday. During the party, everyone has to give a speech about how they feel about Sam. When Sam's crush, Pete (Graham Patrick Martin), makes his speech, he calls Sam a "dude." Depressed by this, she goes to Carly for help on how to be more girlier. It works until a senior bully at school, Jocelyn (Cynthia Dallas), arrives to harass the iCarly team. Sam tries to maintain her "girliness" until Jocelyn hits Carly, at which point she fights the bullies. Unbeknownst to her, Pete is watching. At first Sam becomes upset, but then her spirits lighten up when Pete tells her that he likes the way she is. In the end, Sam and Pete happily go on another date. Meanwhile, Spencer meets a girl at the grocery store and becomes convinced that she only likes him when he is wearing his tuxedo. Eventually she convinces him that she likes him for who he is.

Carly's old friend, Missy Robinson (Haley Ramm), returns to Seattle and tries to become Carly's only best friend and replace Sam. After inviting Sam and Carly to a ride on helicopter, she texts Sam the wrong address, sending her to a piñata shell factory instead. Missy then "accidentally" destroys Sam's cell phone, and gets Sam sick by giving her expired fudge. Sam realizes Missy is up to something, but no one believes her since they think that Sam is being "her usual paranoid self." When Carly is not around, Missy confesses to Sam, believing that Carly will not believe anything bad about Missy. Sam is forced to ask Freddie for help; when he wins a six month cruise, he gives it to Missy so she will go away. Shortly after Missy is awarded with the cruise, Carly discovers Missy's plans to destroy her and Sam's friendship. Meanwhile, while packing for a camping trip, Spencer is locked in the basement by Chuck, who is seeking revenge on Spencer for telling on him and getting him grounded. Chuck is eventually caught and is grounded by his father once again.

After an episode of iCarly, a girl at school tells Sam and Freddie that a show on the Dingo Channel (parody of disney channel) called "Totally Teri" used Random Dancing in an episode, calling it "Random Jumping". Carly and Sam immediately realize that there is more than that–they even spoofed "Messing with Lewbert", which they called "Messing with Rupert". Spencer and the iCarly team go to Hollywood to settle the issue, staying in a very low-quality hotel. Visiting Dingo Studios, Carly and Sam confront the "Totally Teri" writers, who confess that they are plagiarizing iCarly skits to use for their show; they claim they have rights to do so since they have money and power. Meanwhile, Spencer and Freddie find Charles Dingo's head and come up with a plan. The next day, the iCarly group threatens to release depictions of Dingo's head on iCarly.com unless the writers swear not to steal the show's ideas again. The writers swear they will never do it again and two of the writers have to fight with dog food on the show.

Sam reveals she has a twin sister named Melanie. Freddie is not convinced, and to try to prove it, he invites Melanie to a dance with him as his date. The plan to prove Melanie is really Sam takes an unexpected turn when Melanie kisses Freddie, who then becomes extremely paranoid. Since Freddie refuses to believe it, Sam admits to Freddie that there is no Melanie. Satisfied, Freddie departs right before Melanie arrives to go to the mall with Sam and Carly. Meanwhile, Carly tries to tutor Chuck in math, and Spencer shows Carly how evil Chuck really is. Carly gets revenge on Chuck by telling him there's a new number called "derf" between 5 and 6, and because of this, Chuck fails his math test. Spencer gives Chuck's dad a brochure about a summer math camp he attended as a kid, called Camp Add-m-Up, sending Chuck to math camp for the whole summer.

Part 1 Carly and martial-arts champ Shelby Marx (Victoria Justice) agree to have an exhibition fight for charity after Carly jokingly challenges her to a match. Unfortunately, Carly accidentally falls on Shelby's grandmother during a press conference. Part 2 Thinking Shelby wants revenge, Carly backs out of the fight only to be ridiculed as a coward. Carly visits Shelby and apologizes, and the fight is back on. Nevel Papperman alters a clip of the press conference to make it look like Carly intentionally tackled Shelby's grandma to dupe Shelby into fighting Carly. Shelby, furious, legitimately attacks Carly during the match. Carly clings onto Shelby's leg for the rest of the fight to avoid being hit. Nevel's plot is revealed and as punishment, he is trapped in a cage with an angry Shelby, Carly, Sam, and Gibby. Shelby later appears on iCarly. Meanwhile, Spencer suffers from ridiculous side effects while taking an experimental allergy medication given by a doctor.
