I'm going to be recording the first 10 pages of this or so today.
Added 2021-05-11 18:39:36 +0000 UTCI'd love some feedback, final notes, ETC on the whole thing. I've just learned that the iCarly revival is going to start coming out in June, so I'm kind of trying to get this boat moving.

2021-05-11 19:23:41 +0000 UTCI got it. It doesn't span the time of two generations, but rather appeals to the demographics of two generations. Its confusing because most of that section is discussing how long the show ran, then the word "span" can have a time connotation in addition to a space connotation.

2021-05-11 19:21:46 +0000 UTC"It’s important to point out here that iCarly existed to fill a quota, and her name was Miranda Cosgrowe." Hold up, is quota the right word to use? It makes me think of, like statutorily-enforced diversity quotas. I think you mean, like, Nickelodeon has decided to develop her as a star, with some assurance that she'd have a vehicle available to her in order to do that. Maybe "iCarly exists to satisfy a development contract" or something like that. Also, this sentence is a bit awkward; quotas aren't named individuals, they are quantity levels.

2021-05-11 19:15:10 +0000 UTC6 seasons can span the gap of two generations? I usually think of a minimum 20 years between generations. I'm not sure I follow the logic. Maybe, like, 6 years is enough to graduate a class of kids from grade school into middle school, or middle into high school? Is that the significance you want to convey? (Yes, technically there can be a mere moment between the last member of the previous generation and the first member of the next generation, but that's a special case and not usually relevant to whatever point is being made when talking about generations.)

2021-05-11 19:11:13 +0000 UTCI'm currently at my day job, so I can't offer a lot of input atm, but the only thing I've really noticed so far is that you should probably change "best web shows on the web" to "best web shows on the internet" in the second paragraph to avoid repeating the same word too quickly. Everything else seems great so far! I've read the whole intro and will probably read the rest when I get home tonight
2021-05-11 19:09:36 +0000 UTCCurrently reading. Might want to take out the 8-D joke for Freddy’s apartment. Just don’t particularly like it
