@@Addie-dh1qd because I can tell you for a fact that a majority of families have more than one parent in one way or another. It is completely unusual and unrealistic the amount of missing parents. Simple. Nothing wrong with having a missing parent. But it's not anywhere near "normal" the abundance of it in the show
I know what the goat did… So the writers have actually told viewers that there is no real thing the goat did the goat did nothing. It is told you have to use your imagination so in my imagination the goat vomited on Carly. It’s up to you what the goat actually did and there is no real thing the goat did
It wasn't Spencer (the character), it was Jerry Trainor (the actor). I think it was just his way of saying that he didn't know any more than the rest of us.
I still think it is the first theory that her mom is dead. As for why they don't mention her or have pictures - maybe her mom died during complications with labor. So rather than have memories of that all over the house & bringing her up - keeps from making Carly feel bad about it. That would be a horrible thing to associate with your birth. They may have not even told her what happened until she was older & gave some other explanation.
I love how the show tackled parental problems very subtly. No one on the show had both parents, wich is what is expected as the normal. It's relieving for kids watching in that condition as I did.

She probably ran out while Carly was still a toddler or realized she don't want to be a mother and then got her own family. Making Carly and Spencer really upset and angry to the point that they don't want any mention of her. Nor do they ever want to tell people about her. I'm betting Sam was the only person Carly had ever told It to.
Maybe Spencer and Carly were born out of wedlock and because they didn’t want to feel shamed by having children out of marriage, considering the fact that having children out marriage was considered sinful in 70’s and in Christianity, Carly’s mum and dad went their separate ways.
@@cici5283 The actor who played Carly and Spencer's father was born in 1971. Even if we assume his character is several years older, neither he nor his kids were born at a time when women were shamed and persecuted for having kids out of wedlock.
Yes I think Carly’s mom is still out there. What I think Carly should do is to ask Harper and Freddie and maleficent should do a skate out for 4 weeks to find her and meet her mom and to have Mother and daughter date. And talk things out about life and talk about her new roommates and her friendship with Sam and Freddie.
About the picture thing if you remember the episode of Carly's room burning down and there were valuables like pictures and jewlry so maybe there were some pictures of her mom
Carly’s mom died when she was a little girl, which is why she is too embarrassed to mention it. I mean 27 is still a very young age to lose a parent. I know people in their sixties that still have one parent alive.
There is nothing embarrassing about losing a parent, I lost my dad when I was a year ago at 24 and I was never embarrassed about it. It's why the theory of Carly's mom being dead doesn't make sense to me, if she was dead why would Carly try to avoid the subject instead of just saying she passed away? I would rather tell people that my father passed away then have them imagine other things
@@lilalizzard well, some people are not comfortable with others knowing that they do not have both parents alive at such a young age; when I went to school, my classmates would make fun of such people by saying “Haha, you dont have a mom and dad alive”. It is so messed up to joke like that, but unfortunately, some douchebags do that.
I think in the iCarly reboot it would be a perfect time for us to learn what happened to Freddy's father and Carly's mom. Because they don't have to go into much detail of what happened to them. But they should reveal something about their parents just incase they decide to stop making episodes for the iCarly reboot. Because the mystery of what happened to Freddy's father and Carly's mom. Is probably the only thing that is left for us to learn. (🤓)
They won't say because they have nothing to say they didn't though about it they have said it themselves the producers didnt though this long the story was just carly leaving with her brother and having the webshow her going to school and having fun with her friends i mean what role would her mother play her parents being in the airforce was enough weird to hear let alone hear in 2000s how her mother tragically died
I’m sure we can all agree that things will get real emotional once the first episode of season 4 comes like Carly and Spencer’s mom have never once been mentioned from the original icarly (not counting when Spencer said to what’s her name “you’re not my mother”) and then in sam and cat nevel asked sam what happened to Carly’s mom and then in game shakers Freddie said idk what happened to Carly’s mom and then in that one episode Carly didn’t want to talk about her mom when someone mentioned her so when episode 10 of s3 came we got an idea of what happened to Carly and Spencer’s mom its not that she died nor had a job to where she couldn’t find the time to be with Carly and Spencer it’s just that she walked out on them when Carly and Spencer were very young now we can’t really get into the specifics just yet but we can come up with theories that’ll most likely come true now idk about y’all but I’m ready to see what Carly and Spencer’s mom look like after all these years just like when Colonel shay was revealed in the final episode from the og icarly
My icarly questions: 1. who is Carly and Spencers mum and where is she? 2. Who is Sam's dad and where is he? 3. Who is Freddie's dad and where is he? 4. WHAT DID THE GOAT DO? 5. What happend when carly came back from Italy? 6. How did Sam leave Cat when Carly came back? 7. What happend to Carly and Spencers dad in the newer icarly? 8. How did the Fencing Bensons start? 9. Where is sam in the new icarly? 10. Creddie or Seddie? 11. What was wrong with Lewbert? 12. How did Lewbert even get the job? 13. Why was Nora so sycotic?
I’m hoping this season they’ll finally give us some detail about her mom. We haven’t even heard her name or anything. Something really bad must’ve happened for that to be the case.
if the third season is the iCarly revival farewell period then it would be nice if in the last episode Carlyn and Spencer’s mom would come pick them up for a trip around the world.
I think that carly's mom and freddie's dad left both of their families and married each other and the reason why nobody talks about it is because no one knows about it! 🤷🏻♀️
Would make sense that Carly mom and Freddie’s dad ran away cause they fell in love cause for some reason mrs benson never really liked Carly at the beginning so this would make sense as to why
Mrs. Shay Throughout the series, nothing is ever mentioned of Carly and Spencer's mom--it's also never confirmed if Spencer and Carly have the same mother, as they could potentially be paternal half-siblings (meaning they have the same father but different mothers), as half-siblings in general tend to have to large age differences. During a RUclips video of Jerry Trainor, when he was asked where Carly and Spencer's mother was, and he responded, "I don't know, shopping I guess," while laughing. In the episode iStakeout, Mrs. Benson says to Spencer, "Spencer, you have a stain on your shirt, go put on a fresh one!". Spencer then replies, "But you're not my mother!" It's possible that she is deceased (which would make Colonel Shay a widower), but assuming that Mrs. Shay is still alive, it can assumed that she and Colonel Shay are divorced, separated or were possibly never married in the first place. Also, assuming that Mrs. Shay is in fact still alive, she's clearly not involved in Carly and Spencer's lives--for example, as shown in iWanna Stay with Spencer, if anything were to happen to Spencer where he couldn't act as legal guardian: Carly would have to go live with their paternal grandfather rather some other relative, such as her mother. Nevel questions the absence of Carly's mother in the Sam & Cat episode, #SuperPsycho, but Sam just walks away. Nathan Kress has stated that he didn't know what happened to Carly's mom. Her inexplicable absence is referenced in the 2021 revival, where Carly is asked about what her parents do. She offers an explanation about her dad, but when questioned about her mom she awkwardly changes the subject. However, on the nick.com page of iCarly, it says both of Carly's parents are out at sea.
Ok, we see her granddad, her dad and Mostly, her brother Spencer but what about her mom??? P.S. I laughed when you say "Move over, 007" "Here comes Double iCarly" 😂
Theory 4: Her mom and got divorced. Spencer and Carly must have had a bad relationship with her and that’s why the show or themselves barely mentions her. We never see Freddie’s, Gibby’s, or Sam’s Dads either. This is probably one of most likely theories. 5th theory she passed away after my 4th theory happened.
I think Carly's mom is dead because they hardly talk about her and if the cast wanted us to know that she was a secret agent but Carly couldn't talk about it to just anyone they could just make a scene of Carly and her brother talking about their mom being an agent in private.
@@nathanvosburgh718 maybe the kidd don't know and that's y Mrs Benson freaks out in the episode where he saves her from being hit by the taco truck and she starts to pity date him. Bc she knows that's gross but they don't want to tell the children. But like I said it was just a thought I have no concrete evidence to support it just was fun to think about. 🤔
@@nillianlerriceramirez3105 my man is 17 years older than me. And my dad is 21 years older than my mom. The least she gap in my family is 6 years. So it's not uncommon.
My theory is that carly's dad adopted her and spancer so they don't have a Mother they can talk about ( also, if they adopted carly from drake and Josh that means we can connect drake and Josh to the nickelodeon live action multiverse [ but there might be another connection i am not aware of ] )
All I know is that Carly never mentions her mother for an indescribable reason, for instance, she could have been missing from when she just had Carly at birth or even been kidnapped by a criminal or something
I’m not 100% sure but all my years of watching the older version of iCarly and then starting to watch the new were version I would have to say maybe iCarly‘s moms out there somewhere
Carly and Spencer clearly have different mom's. Carly's dad lives with her in another country. He meet Carly's mother while on a mission and got her pregnant. He moved Carly to America to have a better life.
Carly’s mom and dad could have broken up but then there would have to be more like if then her mom had said something mean to her dad. That way, Carly would be supporting her dad and not mention her mom.
CRAZY THOUGHT, SPENCER IS CARLYS DAD HE HAD HER WHEN HE WAS A TEENAGER BUT HIS DAD TOOK OVER THE RESPONSIBILITY OF CARLY AND CARLYS MOM PROBABLY RAN AWAY AFTER BIRTH
I never understand why their mom wasn’t mention in the series at all, same for Sam, Freddie, and even Gibby’ dads has never been mention in the series as well and I think it still messed up that each main characters parents only shows single parents characters but mention others a lot in Icarly
I googled this to find more info on Carly's mom and there's an article online that says Dan Schnider says Carly's mom was never mentioned to be dead on the show. And nothing further about Carly's mom. For some reason I feel like she's an absentee parent like they said in the video. I feel like it would make sense, Sam's dad is absentee, Freddie's father is never mentioned
I thought Carly's mon ditched them one day and never came home. For a few days life was fairly normal as Spencer tried to take care of his little sister for the first time. A neighbor catches on can calls CPS ect
I felt like the first theory is probably untrue bc my mom has a picture of my father’s late mother who passed away when my father was a kid due to a failed birth
I figure between the age difference of Spencer and Carly that maybe Carly was a surprise pregnancy and maybe it was considered high-risk. And maybe her Mom past away during child-birth. Freddie's Dad, I honestly wouldn't have been surprised if Ms. Benson either unintentionally killed him due to over-medicating non-existent health conditions. Or if he just ran away for his own sense of personal safety due to her insanity. And maybe he died/left unknowingly while she was pregnant so to this day, he still doesn't even know that Freddie even exists. Sam's dad, I always assumed was still in prison. As that is probably where Sam's mom met him and most likely where Sam herself was conceived. She just managed to get out, when he didn't. I mean the butter sock must have been invented somewhere and simply passed down through the generations. Or Sam's Mom slept around a lot and probably doesn't even know herself who Sam's father is.
Another theory: Spencer is really Carly's dad. He got a girl pregnant. She didn't want to be a mom, so Spencer took her, but his parents decided to pass her off as Spencer's sister to keep up appearances.
How could Spencer be Carly's dad?? If Spencer was her dad he would have to be like 10 if he got her pregnant, and Colonel Steven Shay is Carly and Spencer's dad. They just don't know what happened to their mom because she never mentioned and she is unknown. Another theory: their mom probably died when Carly was like 1 or 2 and Carly and Spencer ended up living together on their own probably because their dad is in the air force and they aren't aware of what happened to their mom.
What If Sams Dad Left To Be With Carly’s Mom , And That’s Why Nobody Talks About it ? That Was Just A Suggestion , Maybe Sam Doesn’t Know And Maybe Sams Mother Didn’t Tell Her Because She Didnt Want The Girls To Stop Being Bestfriends ,
Honestly, I don't think I ever fully registered that we never got any mention about Carly and Spencer's mom until Nevel asked about it when he appeared on Sam & Cat. And of course, Nathan Dress said when he appeared on Game Shakers "I don't know what happened to Carly's mom." But yeah, I always thought she passed away.
Maybe she an alien from another planet all this time and Carly, Spencer, and their dad didn't want to tell anyone about it and she left back home to another planet? Or is that goes way too far for a fan theory?
Is it weird that Colonel Steven Shay has the same name as the guy who cheated on Carly and Tori in iParty with Victorious? Or is that just a coincidence?
I can't believe it! Carly's mom and Freddie's dad were left them because they married together! Not quite really the chance! Not quite sure about this and that!
it could be, think about it carlys mom lonely raising 2 kids while husband is in a submarine the bensons being your neighbors Mr benson the only close man she has and boom it happens
Carly and spencer,would have needed a mother to give birth to them,so if carlys dad was in Yourope carlys mum is somewhere in Yourope,maybe?,anyway sam said in this episode where her dad is he is in Italy,but Freddie’s dad,and Carlys mum,are missing,but this could be a sad one for Carly and Spencer’s dad,carlys mother and Freddie’s Father could know each other,so carlys mum and Freddie’s mum could be a couple but also,why didn’t Carly ask her dad wher her mother is?but he might not know.
I always loved how each member of the trio is missing a parent, it really showed how that not all families are perfect
Not just the trio. Many others like Gibby, Emily, Mandy, Chuck, Nevel. Only character in that show that has both parents is Nora. Carly had a 13-year age gap with her older brother.

We just need to know when and why she did it
Carly’s mother could still be alive and gave Spencer custody of Carly
Yeah
Carlys mother could still be alive and gave Spencer custody of Carly
Spencer doesn't have custody of Carly the Father do. Spencer is her Guardian...
@@itakemytime1156 yea but carly’s father is overseas so Spencer has to have some custody things that they don’t want to bring up the mother
@@amiradjiar73 copied comment
I think Carly's mother abandoned her when she was little
You know what would be amazing? Carly’s mother being revealed in season 2 of the revival!
Maybe Spencer and Carly were born out of wedlock and because they didn’t want to feel shamed by having children out of marriage, considering the fact that having children out marriage was considered sinful in 70’s and in Christianity, Carly’s mum and dad went their separate ways.
Spencer really isn't that old though.
The 70's? Lol Spencer was born like 82.
@@cici5283 The actor who played Carly and Spencer's father was born in 1971. Even if we assume his character is several years older, neither he nor his kids were born at a time when women were shamed and persecuted for having kids out of wedlock.
@@DTD110865 Right lol I’m just saying that the 70’s shouldn’t even really be factor ha
Yes I think Carly’s mom is still out there. What I think Carly should do is to ask Harper and Freddie and maleficent should do a skate out for 4 weeks to find her and meet her mom and to have Mother and daughter date. And talk things out about life and talk about her new roommates and her friendship with Sam and Freddie.
About the picture thing if you remember the episode of Carly's room burning down and there were valuables like pictures and jewlry so maybe there were some pictures of her mom
I really just now realized that I never saw her mom on the show, I never really thought about it when I was younger
For some reason, I thought Carly and Spencer's dad would've been played by Jim Carrey and Freddie's dad would've been played by Ron Livingston.
Notice how every character is missing a parent
Spencer and Carly- their mother
Freddie-His Father
Sam-Her father
Gibby-His father
Nevel-his father
Etc
Carly’s mom died when she was a little girl, which is why she is too embarrassed to mention it. I mean 27 is still a very young age to lose a parent. I know people in their sixties that still have one parent alive.
There is nothing embarrassing about losing a parent, I lost my dad when I was a year ago at 24 and I was never embarrassed about it. It's why the theory of Carly's mom being dead doesn't make sense to me, if she was dead why would Carly try to avoid the subject instead of just saying she passed away? I would rather tell people that my father passed away then have them imagine other things
"Too embarrassed" that's such a rude word describing your late parent!! That's not true at all, why would she feel shame about her late mother?
@@lilalizzard well, some people are not comfortable with others knowing that they do not have both parents alive at such a young age; when I went to school, my classmates would make fun of such people by saying “Haha, you dont have a mom and dad alive”. It is so messed up to joke like that, but unfortunately, some douchebags do that.
@@SYDAirlineEnthusiast Oh I totally see your point!!! I wasn't thinking of that when I wrote my comment, my bad
maybe not embarrassed. let’s say her mom really is dead. carly might not feel comfortable taking about it as it seems like a very touchy subject
Well, let’s just this has aged perfectly 😢
I think in the iCarly reboot it would be a perfect time for us to learn what happened to Freddy's father and Carly's mom. Because they don't have to go into much detail of what happened to them. But they should reveal something about their parents just incase they decide to stop making episodes for the iCarly reboot. Because the mystery of what happened to Freddy's father and Carly's mom. Is probably the only thing that is left for us to learn.
(🤓)
Why'd u use🤓
They won't say because they have nothing to say they didn't though about it they have said it themselves the producers didnt though this long the story was just carly leaving with her brother and having the webshow her going to school and having fun with her friends i mean what role would her mother play her parents being in the airforce was enough weird to hear let alone hear in 2000s how her mother tragically died
I’m sure we can all agree that things will get real emotional once the first episode of season 4 comes like Carly and Spencer’s mom have never once been mentioned from the original icarly (not counting when Spencer said to what’s her name “you’re not my mother”) and then in sam and cat nevel asked sam what happened to Carly’s mom and then in game shakers Freddie said idk what happened to Carly’s mom and then in that one episode Carly didn’t want to talk about her mom when someone mentioned her so when episode 10 of s3 came we got an idea of what happened to Carly and Spencer’s mom its not that she died nor had a job to where she couldn’t find the time to be with Carly and Spencer it’s just that she walked out on them when Carly and Spencer were very young now we can’t really get into the specifics just yet but we can come up with theories that’ll most likely come true now idk about y’all but I’m ready to see what Carly and Spencer’s mom look like after all these years just like when Colonel shay was revealed in the final episode from the og icarly
When I first started watching the show I didn't realize Spencer and Carly were siblings
At first I thought the were father and daughter stupidly
It litterally reveals her brother as spencer in like the first 5 minutes of the show b4 spencer is even shown lol
Hate that the reboot was finally going to answer the question in the season 4 premiere, and then the show got cancelled before it even happened
My icarly questions:
1. who is Carly and Spencers mum and where is she?
2. Who is Sam's dad and where is he?
3. Who is Freddie's dad and where is he?
4. WHAT DID THE GOAT DO?
5. What happend when carly came back from Italy?
6. How did Sam leave Cat when Carly came back?
7. What happend to Carly and Spencers dad in the newer icarly?
8. How did the Fencing Bensons start?
9. Where is sam in the new icarly?
10. Creddie or Seddie?
11. What was wrong with Lewbert?
12. How did Lewbert even get the job?
13. Why was Nora so sycotic?
9) Sam was said to be with a biker gang in s1 of the reboot by both Carly and Freddie when Carly said she missed her
@@ishashifar okay thanks
I always thought she was dead... And I'm convinced Freddie was artificially conceived.
I’m hoping this season they’ll finally give us some detail about her mom. We haven’t even heard her name or anything. Something really bad must’ve happened for that to be the case.
It’s looking like she’s just a bad parent
if the third season is the iCarly revival farewell period then it would be nice if in the last episode Carlyn and Spencer’s mom would come pick them up for a trip around the world.
Wait is the 3rd season of the revival going to be the last one?
@@LordBackuro maybe
What if Ms.Shay hurts her kids and ran off? Maybe that's why they never talk about her.
She would never do that to them!
I think that carly's mom and freddie's dad left both of their families and married each other and the reason why nobody talks about it is because no one knows about it! 🤷🏻♀️
2:56 correct answer 😥
Would make sense that Carly mom and Freddie’s dad ran away cause they fell in love cause for some reason mrs benson never really liked Carly at the beginning so this would make sense as to why
Mrs. Shay
Throughout the series, nothing is ever mentioned of Carly and Spencer's mom--it's also never confirmed if Spencer and Carly have the same mother, as they could potentially be paternal half-siblings (meaning they have the same father but different mothers), as half-siblings in general tend to have to large age differences. During a RUclips video of Jerry Trainor, when he was asked where Carly and Spencer's mother was, and he responded, "I don't know, shopping I guess," while laughing.
In the episode iStakeout, Mrs. Benson says to Spencer, "Spencer, you have a stain on your shirt, go put on a fresh one!". Spencer then replies, "But you're not my mother!"
It's possible that she is deceased (which would make Colonel Shay a widower), but assuming that Mrs. Shay is still alive, it can assumed that she and Colonel Shay are divorced, separated or were possibly never married in the first place. Also, assuming that Mrs. Shay is in fact still alive, she's clearly not involved in Carly and Spencer's lives--for example, as shown in iWanna Stay with Spencer, if anything were to happen to Spencer where he couldn't act as legal guardian: Carly would have to go live with their paternal grandfather rather some other relative, such as her mother.
Nevel questions the absence of Carly's mother in the Sam & Cat episode, #SuperPsycho, but Sam just walks away. Nathan Kress has stated that he didn't know what happened to Carly's mom.
Her inexplicable absence is referenced in the 2021 revival, where Carly is asked about what her parents do. She offers an explanation about her dad, but when questioned about her mom she awkwardly changes the subject.
However, on the nick.com page of iCarly, it says both of Carly's parents are out at sea.
The reason why we don't know Carly's mom: Ultimately, they didn't put her in the script.
Ok, we see her granddad, her dad and Mostly, her brother Spencer but what about her mom???
P.S. I laughed when you say "Move over, 007" "Here comes Double iCarly" 😂
What about Freddie's father?
I am guessing he left Mrs. Benson because of how crazy she is.
Theory 4: Her mom and got divorced. Spencer and Carly must have had a bad relationship with her and that’s why the show or themselves barely mentions her. We never see Freddie’s, Gibby’s, or Sam’s Dads either. This is probably one of most likely theories. 5th theory she passed away after my 4th theory happened.
My guess is that she is an absentee but I'm not sure. Maybe she didn't want to take care of Spencer and Carly because it was too much responsibility
I think Carly's mom is dead because they hardly talk about her and if the cast wanted us to know that she was a secret agent but Carly couldn't talk about it to just anyone they could just make a scene of Carly and her brother talking about their mom being an agent in private.
i feel that mother past away, when carly is still very young.
Amazing. Do more of this please
If you really think about it, literally every character on iCarly has only had one present parent!
We need icarly s4 so we can see!! Cuz the last episode of s3 it almost showed her mom
MAYBE and hear me out...... long possibility but what IF her mom is Mrs benson.... and it's a parent trap kinda situation..
True I mean that would make Freddie and Carly siblings though also if thats the truth why would Mrs. Benson marry a man thats older than her?
@@nillianlerriceramirez3105
My mom did.
My mom is 9 years younger than my dad.
They met when she was 18.
if that's true then the whole dream part for Christmas would be disturbing and disturbing in general as Freddie has the hots for Carly
@@nathanvosburgh718 maybe the kidd don't know and that's y Mrs Benson freaks out in the episode where he saves her from being hit by the taco truck and she starts to pity date him. Bc she knows that's gross but they don't want to tell the children. But like I said it was just a thought I have no concrete evidence to support it just was fun to think about. 🤔
@@nillianlerriceramirez3105 my man is 17 years older than me. And my dad is 21 years older than my mom. The least she gap in my family is 6 years. So it's not uncommon.
My theory is that carly's dad adopted her and spancer so they don't have a Mother they can talk about
( also, if they adopted carly from drake and Josh that means we can connect drake and Josh to the nickelodeon live action multiverse [ but there might be another connection i am not aware of ] )
It's most likely that unfortunately that Carly's mom passed away and the subject is too painful to talk about :(
Carly and Spencer’s mom is possibly still alive. She could be a CIA agent doing missions to save the world
All I know is that Carly never mentions her mother for an indescribable reason, for instance, she could have been missing from when she just had Carly at birth or even been kidnapped by a criminal or something
I’m not 100% sure but all my years of watching the older version of iCarly and then starting to watch the new were version I would have to say maybe iCarly‘s moms out there somewhere
Carly and Spencer clearly have different mom's. Carly's dad lives with her in another country. He meet Carly's mother while on a mission and got her pregnant. He moved Carly to America to have a better life.
I always just assumed that Carly's mom was dead
She is
@@allison3852 We don’t know that for sure
@@allison3852 we don’t know that
@@ivywt So Carly Shay and Chuckie Finster are not different at all
The fact that gibby and Norah have both of their parents honestly surprises me.
I really don't know where Carly's mother is. That's a secret there. I got a no clue.
Carly’s mom and dad could have broken up but then there would have to be more like if then her mom had said something mean to her dad. That way, Carly would be supporting her dad and not mention her mom.
CRAZY THOUGHT, SPENCER IS CARLYS DAD HE HAD HER WHEN HE WAS A TEENAGER BUT HIS DAD TOOK OVER THE RESPONSIBILITY OF CARLY AND CARLYS MOM PROBABLY RAN AWAY AFTER BIRTH
That would have been great. Like Spencer got a girl pregnant as a teen. She had the baby but didn't want her, so Spencer took her.
I never understand why their mom wasn’t mention in the series at all, same for Sam, Freddie, and even Gibby’ dads has never been mention in the series as well and I think it still messed up that each main characters parents only shows single parents characters but mention others a lot in Icarly
Sam and Gibby’s dads were mentioned
@@davidwalker2805 I know, it just the appearance I’m talking about
To me it does not matter because Spencer has always been a mother/father figure to all 3 of the children anyway. More than Freddie's mom ever will be.
I googled this to find more info on Carly's mom and there's an article online that says Dan Schnider says Carly's mom was never mentioned to be dead on the show. And nothing further about Carly's mom. For some reason I feel like she's an absentee parent like they said in the video. I feel like it would make sense, Sam's dad is absentee, Freddie's father is never mentioned
In the knew iCarly we find out she left them but then randomly returned at carly's wedding.
I thought she died!! But she might’ve been a secret agent who knows
Many questions are left without an explanation. Where's Freddie's dad and where's Carly's mom.
And sam’s dad too
@@mixerfan9879 We can assume he left when he realized her mother is a insane. Same with Freddie's dad
Carly's mom doesn't exist because the writers never thought to much about it
I thought Carly's mon ditched them one day and never came home. For a few days life was fairly normal as Spencer tried to take care of his little sister for the first time. A neighbor catches on can calls CPS ect
maybe carly and freddy are half siblings but they dont know it, and maybe that is why freddy's mom doesnt want freddy and carly being together
Lots of actresses to play as carly mom
Peri gilpin
Julie bowen
Jenna fisher
Maya Rudolph
Bebe neuwirth
Julia Louis Dreyfus
Wendie Mclendon convey
I've even tried to search youtube What happen to Carly's Mom..hahaha. I got nothing. 😂
It will be so sweet if carlys mom loves freddie and freddies dad loves carly
I felt like the first theory is probably untrue bc my mom has a picture of my father’s late mother who passed away when my father was a kid due to a failed birth
I figure between the age difference of Spencer and Carly that maybe Carly was a surprise pregnancy and maybe it was considered high-risk. And maybe her Mom past away during child-birth.
Freddie's Dad, I honestly wouldn't have been surprised if Ms. Benson either unintentionally killed him due to over-medicating non-existent health conditions. Or if he just ran away for his own sense of personal safety due to her insanity. And maybe he died/left unknowingly while she was pregnant so to this day, he still doesn't even know that Freddie even exists.
Sam's dad, I always assumed was still in prison. As that is probably where Sam's mom met him and most likely where Sam herself was conceived. She just managed to get out, when he didn't. I mean the butter sock must have been invented somewhere and simply passed down through the generations. Or Sam's Mom slept around a lot and probably doesn't even know herself who Sam's father is.
All we know about Sam's dad is that he's probably Italian and left.
My word! Here comes double iCarly lol 😂😂😂😂!
you know how they never talk about Freddie's dad and I never talk about Carly's mom what if they are half-siblings
Another theory: Spencer is really Carly's dad. He got a girl pregnant. She didn't want to be a mom, so Spencer took her, but his parents decided to pass her off as Spencer's sister to keep up appearances.
How could Spencer be Carly's dad?? If Spencer was her dad he would have to be like 10 if he got her pregnant, and Colonel Steven Shay is Carly and Spencer's dad. They just don't know what happened to their mom because she never mentioned and she is unknown. Another theory: their mom probably died when Carly was like 1 or 2 and Carly and Spencer ended up living together on their own probably because their dad is in the air force and they aren't aware of what happened to their mom.
Isn't that just the plot of Andi Mack then?
@@sita9071 Yes, but I am sure there's more.
We never did find out about that
What If Sams Dad Left To Be With Carly’s Mom , And That’s Why Nobody Talks About it ? That Was Just A Suggestion , Maybe Sam Doesn’t Know And Maybe Sams Mother Didn’t Tell Her Because She Didnt Want The Girls To Stop Being Bestfriends ,
What if Spencer and Carly are adopted (I’m sorry, the only episode I’ve watched is “IParty With Victorious” and a small amount of others)
Maybe carlys mom divorced her dad before she was born.
Honestly, I don't think I ever fully registered that we never got any mention about Carly and Spencer's mom until Nevel asked about it when he appeared on Sam & Cat. And of course, Nathan Dress said when he appeared on Game Shakers "I don't know what happened to Carly's mom." But yeah, I always thought she passed away.
sams dad is the most mysterious, her mom has different boyfriends each week so it could be anyone
She even said that she doesn’t know where he is
So seemingly he either ran off or hes one of the many many guys sams mom had a relationship with.
Theory: Carly Shay and Megan Parker are actually twins and their parents and her mom was Audrey Parker before their parents got divorced
Maybe she an alien from another planet all this time and Carly, Spencer, and their dad didn't want to tell anyone about it and she left back home to another planet? Or is that goes way too far for a fan theory?
That's kind of already been done before. You should look up the old 80s sitcom Out of This World.
The 2 most unanswered nickelodeon questions what happend to Carly's mother and what happend to Zuko's mother
The comics answered what happened to zuko's mom though.
Is it weird that Colonel Steven Shay has the same name as the guy who cheated on Carly and Tori in iParty with Victorious? Or is that just a coincidence?
I can't believe it! Carly's mom and Freddie's dad were left them because they married together! Not quite really the chance! Not quite sure about this and that!
it could be, think about it carlys mom lonely raising 2 kids while husband is in a submarine the bensons being your neighbors Mr benson the only close man she has and boom it happens
Carly and spencer,would have needed a mother to give birth to them,so if carlys dad was in Yourope carlys mum is somewhere in Yourope,maybe?,anyway sam said in this episode where her dad is he is in Italy,but Freddie’s dad,and
Carlys mum,are missing,but this could be a sad one for Carly and Spencer’s dad,carlys mother and Freddie’s Father could know each other,so carlys mum and Freddie’s mum could be a couple but also,why didn’t Carly ask her dad wher her mother is?but he might not know.
