The iCarly reboot is officially here! As fans tuned into the new batch of episodes on Paramount+, plenty of reactions were sparked, but it was not only the absence of Jenette McCurdy's Sam Puckett that generated plenty of chatter online. Warning: This post contains spoilers for the first three episodes of the iCarly reboot, which are now available for streaming on Paramount+.
Premiering the first three episodes of the highly-anticipated reboot, which came a decade after the show ended its original Nickelodeon run, on Thursday (June 17), one moment in particular left viewers buzzing on social media: Miranda Cosgrove's Carly swearing. The moment came as Carly Shay and Jerry Trainor's character Spencer Shay were in the middle of a conversation. At one point, Carly tells him, "it's like Harper always says, 'you gotta switch it up on a b–.'"
Although it had been revealed by the iCarly cast ahead of this week's premiere that the reboot would be more adult-based, with star Nathan Kress saying that the new show is an "adult show" that is "not specifically for kids," the swearing caught some fans by delightful surprise. The moment immediately spurned plenty of buzz on social media, where many fans flocked to react, even poking a little fun at the Disney+ Lizzie McGuire reboot, which was ultimately dropped because of the more adult themes. Keep scrolling to see some of the hilarious reactions.
I was not expecting Carly to say "b*itch" or swear for that matter, but I'm here for it??

"Take Notice: This is how you do a Reboot/Continuation of a Kids Show years later, you don't aim it at the kids of this new generation now, you aim it at the people who were kids when it aired and are now adults," wrote another person. "oh and CARLY SHAY SAID B– THIS ISN'T A DRILL!!!!!"

Carly saying "Bitch" follows Spencer saying "damn it" in a trailer for the new series. One episode also talks about kink-shaming.
