Main characters
Carly Shay
Carlotta "Carly" Shay[1] (Miranda Cosgrove) lives with her older brother, Spencer, in Seattle, Washington.
In "iPilot", Carly takes the heat for one of Sam's pranks and has to oversee people who want to be in the school's talent show. When Carly, Sam, and Freddie's suggestions are completely ignored, they decide to make a web show named "iCarly" upon Freddie's suggestion, with the 'i' standing for 'internet' and Carly's name since she will be the host of the show.
Carly is a smart, pretty girl who gets good grades, going for straight A's in one episode. She is kind and naive at times, wanting to believe in the best in people. She has her moments when she proves just how crazy she can be. Yet in many ways, she is more grown up than her adult brother.
She has, on occasion, wondered why she and Sam are friends, because Sam tends to get her into trouble. Freddie has a crush on Carly, which everyone is aware of. She, however, does not feel the same way (which she has told him many times). However, in "iSaved Your Life", Carly wanted Freddie to become more than friends because Freddie pushed her out of the way of a truck, getting hit himself instead, but Freddie declines, regretting it later. In "iSpace Out" and "iSam's Mom", it is seen that Carly is claustrophobic. She also plays the ukulele.
She is the younger sister of Spencer Shay and the daughter of Colonel Steven Shay and Mrs. Shay. She lives with her older brother, Spencer, in Apartment 8-C at Bushwell Plaza in Seattle while their father is stationed on a Navy submarine; their mother has never been seen or mentioned, probably deceased. She is the best friend of Sam Puckett and former best friend of Missy Robinson whom she hung out with during her childhood. She is also the best friend of Freddie Benson who lives across the hallway (Apt. 8-D) who has had a crush on her since the day they met. Carly is a kind, easygoing, and caring person who would do anything for her friends, although she can be spoiled at times when she doesn't get things the way she wants them, especially in iLook Alike, when Spencer would not approve her going to a Mixed Martial Arts fight, which causes her to go into a tantrum state. In iDate a Bad Boy, it is shown that she can be shallow, as she had a dislike of Griffin's hobby of collecting Pee Wee Babies.
Occasionally, she has to get between her best friends, Sam and Freddie, especially when they argue too much. She herself usually tries not to get in trouble, except for when she takes the blame for Sam's wrongdoing. However, when pushed too far, like in iHave My Principals, Carly has proven to be just as devious as Sam, which catches most people by surprise because of her generally nice demeanor and the little-known, but generally assumed, fact that she has never pulled a prank by herself until iGet Pranky (which she did with Spencer's help).
She is easily grossed out by vermin, the gross videos Sam likes (except in iStage an Intervention, when she wanted to see a guy who could pull his lip down over his chin), or even when Spencer says "bowels" (iTake on Dingo). In iMake Sam Girlier, Sam tells Carly that she is "soft and girlie and weak". It was shown in iSpace Out and confirmed in iSam's Mom that Carly suffered from claustrophobia and freaks out when she is locked in a small space for a long period of time; in iPsycho, she seems to be mildly distressed when Nora locks her, Sam, and Freddie in a recording booth in her basement.
She somehow takes really long showers when she is depressed or needs to think, as mentioned in iGive Away a Car. She sometimes takes chairs in with her.
According to Spencer, she takes vitamins every day and suffers from allergies and asthma. She had her last asthma attack when she was seven years old. Spencer gives her decaffeinated coffee even though she is unaware of this.
Possibly her most prominent trait, Carly, unlike Sam, is not tough, and even when furious, she has never physically attacked anyone on-screen (but tried to tackle Freddie in an angry manner in iThink They Kissed). However, on occasion, she will confront someone, even bullies and teachers, for her friends when it is needed, as shown in iHave a Lovesick Teacher and iMake Sam Girlier. She was also part of a girl mob (Sam and Shelby Marx) that beat up Nevel in iFight Shelby Marx although Nevel said he wasn't scared of her.
Carly shows singing ability in iDo, when she sings Shakespeare, and in iPie, when she tries to get people at a funeral to sing Amazing Grace.
In iParty With Victorious, Carly portrayed a character called The "Hideous" Patty Schwab, Carly disguised in this character to prevent her, Sam, and Freddie from being recognized by fans so they can focus on finding Steven (Carly and Tori's boyfriend). Patty had a (British) accent. She said she was "Hideous" because of her look, same as Sam and Freddie, who also wore disguises. It is shown that she wears a mask to keep her from snoring.
Sam Puckett
Samantha "Sam" Puckett[2] (Jennette McCurdy) is Carly Shay's best friend and in later episodes the girlfriend of Freddie Benson.She co-hosts the show with Carly and handles the sound effect remote control. Sam has an identical twin sister named Melanie. Their mother is Pam Puckett (Jane Lynch[3]). Sam also stated she (and her twin sister, Melanie) were born on a bus and her mother drove off from a gas station and left them.
She is a tomboy, prone to aggression, loves pranks, but hates working. It is mentioned in the series that she has been arrested three times. In "iWon't Cancel the Show", Sam gets arrested a fourth time after a man cuts in front of her in a market and she shoved a hot chili dog down his pants, only to find out he was the Mexican ambassador and as a result, she is sentenced to juvie for seven days (this is the only episode where Sam does not appear at all). Sam is also portrayed as gluttonous, with a particular love for meat (i.e. fried chicken, ham, bacon, steak, ribs and pork). One time she went on a meat patch she had at least 7 of them on her arm but still she couldn't resist her meatball. There is a running gag in the show where Sam is prone to say bacon. It was revealed in IGot a Hot Room that Sam's speaks fluent Italian and she said she can play a trombone (or at least took 3 years of lessons). She's got many stars on her locker, as Drake Bell, Patrick Stump, Pete Wentz, Joe Trohman and Andy Hurley from Fall Out Boy. Sam loves to dance, as shown in iWas a Pageant Girl, when she did a dance with her former dance coach for the talent portion. Sam reveals that she has a small crush on Spencer and that was what was keeping her from beating him up after numerous pranks performed on her, Freddie, Carly, Gibby, T-Bo, and an old lady. She has a rabid three-legged cat named "Frothy". Sam has proven to have a musical background. In "iParty with Victorious" it's shown Sam is a skilled rapper.
She occasionally refers to herself as "Momma." In the episode "iWant to Date Freddie" it is stated by Carly that Sam never lies but in the same episode she promised not to tell on Valerie even though she does. Also in "iSaw Him First" the nurse states that she will turn her in and asks her for her name and Sam says Rebecca Berkowitz. Despite her laziness and unhealthy diet, Sam is physically fit and several episodes show her flipping over full grown men or carrying Freddie over her shoulder with ease. She still lives with her mom although she often stays with Carly, as she is dissatisfied with her home life. In the episode "iParty with Victorious" Sam reveals that her father promised his family he would return, but still has not come back since. He is never actually seen or heard.
Sam admits she used to compete in beauty pageants (and came in second in 19 of them) but got suspended for seven years due to her being suspected of "pushing" a candidate, Leann Carter, down a flight of stairs. Sam pushes Carly into doing the pageant when she finds out that Leann is going for her 100th straight win. At the pageant, Sam finds out she can compete because it has been seven and a half years since the ban. For the talent part Sam dances with her old coach and comes out with first place.
During the first two seasons, Sam has a colorful, boy-like style, often dressing in cargo-Capri pants and sweaters. As the series progressed, she begins to change her style. Most prominent in season 4, where on occasion she wears skinny legged jeans and heels. This shows she is aging and she is showing her girlier side. Sam tends to insult any other girl who has a crush on Freddie. Despite having dated boys before, she still shares her first kiss with Freddie. In "iSaved Your Life", she gets upset when she tells Spencer that Freddie got hit by a taco truck (even throwing down the pizza Spencer was holding when he thought she was tricking him so he would let his guard down and she could beat him in their game of "Assassin"), although she proceeds to help herself to a taco (bought from the same taco truck that hit Freddie) afterwards. In iOMG, it is revealed that she is in love with Freddie, as she kisses him with passion. "iLost My Mind" will feature them finally together continuing "iOMG" when Carly saw Freddie and Sam kissing. In "iLost My Mind" Sam checks herself into a mental hospital because she thinks she is insane for being in love with Freddie. When Carly, Sam, and Freddie had to tape a show of iCarly in the hospital, Carly wanted to get the iCarly fans to see if Sam and Freddie should go out. After the iCarly fans are saying that Sam and Freddie should go out, Freddie then records himself saying that no one has asked how he feels. Sam, of course, thinks this is his chance to get back at her and embarrass her. In the middle of yelling at him, Freddie walks over to her and kisses her. Then in " iDate Sam and Freddie", they kept arguing. Having Carly help them get along. They would make-up and kiss afterwards. When Sam and Freddie go on their date, they get in an argument again. Carly tries to settle it but she gets frustrated. And tells them maybe they aren't meant to be. Leaving the episode a cliff-hanger. In " iCan't Take it", Gibby and Freddie's mom try to break Sam and Freddie up. They didn't break up but they did get in an argument which caused Freddie to think that he should break up with her. But Carly convinces Freddie that Sam would never try to hurt him. Or ruin his chances of getting in NERD camp. Even though before Sam did sabotage his application to be in NERD camp. Freddie and Sam make-up and kiss. In "iLove You", Sam and Freddie try each others hobbies. Freddie invites Sam to hang out with him at his club "Training Bros". Sam makes Freddie get kicked out by accident. So Sam invites Freddie to see her Uncle Carmine and cousin Chaz in prison. Freddie gets caught with ham in his pants, which causes Carmine and Chaz to get sent away by the police. Sam warns Freddie that they might stab him later on. After that, Sam and Freddie overhear Carly talking to Spencer and Jenna about their relationship. Freddie and Sam feel as if Carly was talking about their relationship. So Sam and Freddie finally come to closure on the past episodes "iKiss, iOMG and iLost my Mind". And they decide that maybe later on if they ever become mature about a relationship, they'll get back together. So they decide to break-up. When Sam gets off the elevator, Freddie tells her that he loves her for the first time. And Sam tells him she loves him too, and they kiss. When Freddie sees what time it is , 10:30, and Sam suggests they break-up at midnight. Just to have an excuse to kiss more for the last time.
Freddie Benson
Fredward "Freddie" Benson[4] (Nathan Kress) is the technical producer for the web-show iCarly, which stars his friends Carly Shay and Sam Puckett. He is often the scapegoat when it comes to Sam's bad ideas. However, in "iSaved Your Life", Carly falls for him after he saves her from getting run over by a taco truck. This does not last long, because she only loves him for his actions, not the real him, and Freddie himself (and, after a bit of advice from Sam about why Carly was "In Love" with him) decides that is was best that they stay friends after this point. In turn, many other girls have had a crush on him.
Like Carly, Freddie is shown to get high grades in school, although his talents are on a more technological basis; thus, he is somewhat of a nerd. When explaining a certain technology that Carly and Sam do not know about, he tends to speak in terms that neither Carly nor Sam can comprehend, and thus, this is one of the sources of Sam's constant ridicule of Freddie. He is shown as being a very effective producer, though he is given little credit for iCarly's popularity. Sam eventually somewhat realizes his vital role to the webcast when a girl named Valerie makes him her technical producer instead, and iCarly is greatly hindered as a result. It is also known that Freddie is interested in studying multiple foreign languages, including French, Spanish, and Portuguese. From the second season on, he is frequently heard exclaiming phrases in Spanish. In one episode, it is mentioned that Freddie has a living grandfather.
Freddie's relationship with his mom is a very strained one. She means well, but can be overprotective. At the end of the day, though, they love each other. In iGo to Japan, it is revealed that he has a GPS chip in his head she implanted him in Venezuela due to his mother being overprotective of him, which was used to find them after they were ditched by two Japanese people near Tokyo. Her constant overbearing eventually drove Freddie to temporarily move out of their apartment, and he remained there until his mother begged him to come back. Freddie agreed as long as she unblocked his favorite channels and left him alone in public. His father is not mentioned, much like Carly's mother.
Freddie's relationship with Sam in the first season shows a strong dislike for each other. They have become more civil to one another as the series progresses to the point of them only arguing when they are around other people. Freddie constantly finds himself on the wrong end of Sam's demeanor and his near-psychotic mother's over-protectiveness. Throughout the series, Sam insults him, causes physical harm to him, or pulls pranks on him without hesitation, and also insults any girl who is attracted to him. But they both care for each other. Freddie gradually gets used to this so much so that in "iKiss", he stated that "his life would feel too weird if she didn't make him miserable all the time" and kisses Sam after they mutually compromise to "get their first kiss over with". In "iReunite With Missy", Sam asks for Freddie's help and when Carly finds out she says to Freddie, "You care about Sam" which shows that despite her constant abuse, he sees her as a good friend. In iOMG, he tests out his new app that tells you your mood, on Sam, and it said in love. He assumes it is their new intern, Brad and tells Carly. But at the end of the episode Sam kisses Freddie, revealing she was in love with him. When the kiss is over Sam says "Sorry." Freddie then says, " It's Cool." With mixed emotions of confusion and gladness on his face. The episode ends there leaving Freddie unsure of his feelings for Sam. "iLost My Mind" features them finally together continuing "iOMG" when Carly sees Freddie & Sam kissing. Freddie kisses her live on iCarly at the end of the episode showing that he does, in fact, reciprocate Sam's feelings. Then in " iDate Sam and Freddie", they kept arguing. Having Carly help them get along. They would make-up and kiss afterwards. When Sam and Freddie go on their date, they get in an argument again. Carly tries to settle it but she gets frustrated. And tells them maybe they aren't meant to be. Leaving the episode a cliff-hanger. In " iCan't Take it", Gibby and Freddie's mom try to break Sam and Freddie up. They didn't break up but they did get in an argument which caused Freddie to think that he should break up with her. But Carly convinces Freddie that Sam would never try to hurt him. Or ruin his chances of getting in NERD camp. Even though before Sam did sabotage his application to be in NERD camp. Freddie and Sam make-up and kiss. In "iLove You", Sam and Freddie try each others hobbies. Freddie invites Sam to hang out with him at his club "Training Bros". Sam makes Freddie get kicked out by accident. So Sam invites Freddie to see her Uncle Carmine and cousin Chaz in prison. Freddie gets caught with ham in his pants, which causes Carmine and Chaz to get sent away by the police. Sam warns Freddie that they might stab him later on. After that, Sam and Freddie overhear Carly talking to Spencer and Jenna about their relationship. Freddie and Sam feel as if Carly was talking about their relationship. So Sam and Freddie finally come to closure on the past episodes "iKiss, iOMG and iLost my Mind". And they decide that maybe later on if they ever become mature about a relationship, they'll get back together. So they decide to break-up. When Sam gets off the elevator, Freddie tells her that he loves her for the first time. And Sam tells him she loves him too, and they kiss. When Freddie sees what time it is , 10:30, and Sam suggests they break-up at midnight. Just to have an excuse to kiss more for the last time.
Spencer Shay
Spencer Shay (Jerry Trainor) is Carly's older brother. When Carly's dad was called overseas, she went to live with Spencer, who turned their loft into both a workspace and gallery for his wacky sculptures. Spencer is off-beat and rarely acts his age, but acts responsibly and seriously when it counts. Though often spontaneous and unreliable, Spencer has been shown as being extremely protective of Carly, especially in episodes such as "iQuit iCarly", when he sees Carly about to fall out of a window and sprints to her rescue, and "iLook Alike", when he would not approve her going to a Mixed Martial Arts fight. In "iWanna Stay with Spencer", when Carly was being sent to live with her grandfather against her and Spencer's wishes, Spencer gives their grandfather Carly's asthma inhaler, despite her not having an asthma attack since she was seven. He tells their grandfather that he had kept all these years in case she needed it and demands he takes it with them, but after seeing how much Spencer really cares about Carly by keeping the inhaler all this time, their grandfather allows her to stay with him. In the alternate reality shown in "iChristmas," it is revealed that if Spencer was born "normal," Carly would have never met Sam and Freddie, Sam would be stuck in a juvenile detention center, Spencer would be engaged to Marissa Benson, and iCarly would not exist.
In addition to making sculptures, he has been shown to be an incredibly talented artist; while trying to teach Carly to draw in "iMust Have Locker 239", he quickly draws a professional-looking rabbit without even looking at the pad, much to Carly's amazement. However, when Spencer tries to get involved in something besides sculpting, it tends to spontaneously set itself on fire, despite the object usually not being flammable (such as a cymbal). He is often the focus of the subplot for each episode, in which he usually finds himself in a strange situation. He also enjoys drinking milk in the shower, as stated in the episode "iGot A Hot Room".
In several episodes, it is stated that Spencer went to law school (because of his father's wishes) for three days before dropping out. Spencer did not tell his father that, claiming that he is busy.
Spencer is constantly being attacked and tortured by a trouble-making boy, who lives in the apartment building, named Chuck Chambers. The conflict started when he was covering for the doorman Lewbert in "iHurt Lewbert". Chuck has been seen in several episodes as a worthy enemy, because of his "sweet" personality, and martial arts skills.
He has also had numerous girlfriends throughout the series, including Veronica from a grocery store (whom he has had a crush on since he first saw her) in "iMake Sam Girlier" and a very high class woman in "iWon't Cancel The Show".
It is revealed that Spencer pulled numerous pranks during his youth in "iGet Pranky". After helping Carly pull a prank, his love for it was reignited, and he soon began to set up constant pranks at the expense of almost everyone, especially Carly. At her wit's end, Carly calls some of his old school friends (all of whom that came were victims from one of his pranks) to talk him out of his refueled habit. When she leaves, however, they resort to beating up Spencer since they still haven't forgiven him for it. Despite this, Spencer gets the message. In iParty with Victorious we discover that Spencer has a book club with ONLY ladies. To Carly, Sam, and Freddie's amazement they think that it is not the most manly thing in the world, Spencer also agrees. In iLost my Mind this book club reappears, exchanging fruit tart recipes.
Gibby
Gibby Cornelius Gibson[5][6] (Noah Munck) is a friend and classmate of Carly, Sam, and Freddie and the show's breakout character. Due to his odd personality and pudgy appearance, he is an outcast at school, although he does have a few friends. A running gag on the show is that Gibby often takes his shirt off in every episode in which he is featured. In Season four he has never taken his shirt off. He often appears on iCarly to assist Carly, Sam, and Freddie and becomes a main character in Season Four.[7] Gibby has a little brother named Guppy (played by Munck's younger brother), who is seen in the episodes "iPsycho", "iSell Penny Tees", "iDo", and "iStart a Fan War". In "iMove Out", he has a pet bulldog named Grubbles. A running gag in many episodes usually has many characters yelling "Gibby!" to him, either when they are aggravated or annoyed by him. In "iLost my Mind" he was the first that believed that Caleb is from future. In "iDate Sam & Freddie" he is annoyed with Sam & Freddie, so in "iCan't Take It" he decides to break them up.
Much like Freddie, he is often a victim of Sam's pranks, but she has shown to have more respect for him. In "iSpeed Date", his last name is finally revealed as Gibson at his house's postbox saying "The Gibsons" and reveals he has a girlfriend named Tasha. A very attractive girl, she only has small part in the episode. This surprised Carly, Sam, and Freddie, because they feel that Tasha is somewhat out of Gibby's league. In "iEnrage Gibby", Tasha returns and has a larger role, showing much affection towards Gibby, it also implies that she is at least 16 years old after Gibby said he would walk her to her car. In this episode, Gibby is shown to be ruthless and jealous, but in a comedic way. He is also shown to be a skilled kickboxer. Gibby is portrayed to be a very capable fighter, almost to the level of Sam, as shown in "iPsycho", where he succeeds in breaking into and smashing down a barricaded door.
His mom Charlotte went on a date with Spencer in "iFix a Pop Star", but they broke up because he looked too much like Carly to her and she looked too much like Gibby to him. His parents are divorced. He also has some emotional problems because he is the main target for most bullies (mostly Sam).
He is very good friend with Spencer. In "iKiss", he beacame Carly's replacement in Spencer's football training. In "iCarly Awards", Spencer gave him the awards and he gave them to Carly and Sam. In "iQuit iCarly", he became Spencer's "boat boy" and he helped him defeat the Pirates. In "iPsycho", Spencer finds out that Gibby is not allowed to go to the camp anymore, so he cheers him up by inviting him to "Camp Spencer". In "iGot a Hot Room" his grandpa gives Spencer a haircut. In "iSell Penny-Tees", he introduces Spencer to Fugtor, his bus driver from Uzbekistan, for translate the phrases of Krustacia, Spencer's potential girlfriend from Uzbekistan, but the driver only spoke Uzbek and,ended up falling for Krustacia,much to Spencer's dismay. In "iOMG", Gibby fell bad about hurting Spencer in the experiment. In "iParty with Victorious", he revealed he is skilled in massage therapy,by aiding Spencer;so Spencer refused to drive the rest of the gang to L.A.,unless Gibby was allowed to accompany them.
Recurring characters
Marissa Benson
Marissa Benson (Mary Scheer) is Freddie's stereotypically overprotective, and sensitive safe-cautious mom, first appearing in "iWanna Stay with Spencer". She constantly treats her son like a child and is very worried about him getting hurt or having relationships with girls (especially Carly), but in "iWill Date Freddie", she wanted Carly to love him. Marissa constantly embarrasses Freddie in public, often by making him follow all of her strange rules that she has. In the episode "iMove Out", it is revealed that her pregnancy with Freddie lasted eleven months. She does not seem to care about other people's apologies as seen in the special "iSaved Your Life". She has a somewhat negative relationship with Carly and Spencer, except for iParty with Victorious, when she and Carly actually have a nice conversation. She doesn't really have a negative relationship with Sam however. In addition to the episodes named above, she has appeared in "iNevel", "iStakeout", "iCarly Saves TV", "iFence "iHurt Lewbert", "iGo to Japan", "iPie", "iChristmas", "iLook Alike", "iFind Lewbert's Lost Love", "iMove Out", "iBloop", "iBeat The Heat", "iSam's Mom," "iWill Date Freddie", "iParty with Victorious" , iCan't Take It , and iQ.
Lewbert
Lewbert Sline[8] (Jeremy Rowley) is the mean, vain doorman of Carly's apartment. He has a large, noticeable wart on his left cheek. In "iFind Lewbert's Lost Love", he reveals that the wart developed because of his abusive ex-fiancee, Marta. Her over-obsessiveness caused Lewbert to change his middle and last name, lose his good looks, his job as a supermodel, move to Seattle, and go crazy. He is later sent to jail (by smacking a police officer on the face and "admitting" that he was the one who was stealing the T.V. remotes) so he can escape Marta.
He is featured on the bit "Messin' with Lewbert" on iCarly, in which Carly, Sam and Freddie pull pranks on him, once going so far that they accidentally blew his wart off his face with an "exploding muffin basket", made to shoot confetti, but blew up as an explosive. Afterwards, he had a short-lived romance with Freddie's mother. However, this did not last because of his attitude after Freddie fell down the stairs while wearing "open-toed shoes", which was actually a ruse by Carly and Sam to end the relationship. Lewbert is loosely based on an enraged customer Rowley played in a "Blockblister" segment on The Amanda Show. Lewbert appears in: "iWant more Viewers", "iWanna Stay with Spencer", "iScream on Halloween", "iHeart Art", "iHurt Lewbert", "iGo to Japan", "iTake On Dingo", "iFind Lewbert's Lost Love", "iEnrage Gibby" and "iBeat the Heat". He is not seen after Season 3.
T-Bo
Terrence "T-Bo" Bo[9] (BooG!e) is the manager at the Groovy Smoothie (a parody of Jamba Juice). He often annoyingly talks customers into buying random food (some sold on sticks and put on the improperly), like bagels, bell peppers, pickles, doughnuts, muffins, turkey breasts, tacos, chicken pot pies and of course, smoothies. T-Bo says he has a degree in "Smoothology". He is a close friend of Carly, Spencer, and the rest of the gang. After "iQ", he rents a room at Bensons'. T-Bo appears in : "iWant my Website Back", "iDate a Bad Boy", "iTwins", "iCook", "iSpeed Date", "iHate my Principals", "iQuit iCarly", "iGot a Hot Room", "iSam's Mom", "iGet Pranky", "iDate Sam & Freddie","iQ", "iStill Psycho" and in the Extended Version of iParty with Victorious as the panda.
Socko
Socko is a friend of Spencer who is only mentioned in several episodes because he and Spencer were friends in high school. He shares Spencer's love of unusual socks, and makes them, as stated in "IGo to Japan". Several members of Socko's family have names that match their jobs or personalities and are also off-screen characters; examples include Tyler, who makes ties; Otto, a used car salesman; Rob, a professional thief; Penny, who actually created Penny-Tees ( you can read this from an iCarly blog); and Taylor, who makes tuxedos. Like Carly and Spencer's parents and most of Freddie and Sam's family members, Socko and most of his family members have never been seen in the show in person except for Rob who stole back Carly and Spencer's couch. However, Socko's right arm was seen for a moment in iParty With Victorious. So far, that is the closest that the viewers have seen him.
Nevel Papperman
Nevel Amadeus Papperman[10] (Reed Alexander) is the former nemesis of the iCarly team and the primary antagonist of the show, making 7 appearances.Nevel hacks computers frequently and he is evil but quite sophisticated. Nevel appears in "iNevel," "iRue The Day," "iChristmas," "iGive Away a Car," "iWant my Website Back," "iFight Shelby Marx," and "iPity the Nevel." Nevel runs a popular website, Nevelocity.com, on which he reviews other websites. He tends to have a "posh" personality which includes dressing formally all the time. At first, he had a crush on Carly and initially offered to interview her in order to get close to her, but she refused his romantic advances and rubbed his face with a special dip his mother made called "tapenade". Nevel tries to take revenge by writing a scathing review of iCarly.com on Nevelocity.com. He is extremely intelligent, often using complex plans that hide his involvement at first. Despite his intelligence, he often underestimates the iCarly gang, leading to his defeat. Most of his plans backfire, resulting in him suffering in some way and presumably causing his website to increasingly run out of business due to his corrupt, vindictive nature. It is revealed in the episode "iGive Away a Car" that his dream is to open his own haberdashery. He is not seen or mentioned at all in season 3 except for archived footage from "iBloop", but returns in the season 4 episode "iPity The Nevel". He was never seen after this. He also appears in the self-titled video game as the antagonist. His middle name was revealed to be Amadeus in "iPity the Nevel".
Chuck
Chuck Chambers[11] (Ryan Ochoa) is the secondary antagonist of the show but mostly towards Spencer. He first made an appearance in "iHurt Lewbert", when playing racquetball in the lobby, which Spencer got him grounded for by his father for two days. Since then, Chuck and Spencer became rivals and have clashed on several more occasions each time ending with Spencer winning and Chuck getting in trouble with his father except in "iFind Lewbert's Lost Love". He reappears in "iBeat the Heat", where he comes to the Shays' apartment with his dad and sister, Gia, who Spencer finds attractive. Chuck also appears in "iReunite with Missy", and "iTwins"
Guppy
Guppy Gibson[6] (Ethan Munck) is Gibby's younger brother. He appears in "iPsycho," coming over to Carly's house to stay with his brother, who is staying at "Camp Spencer." Guppy later frees the iCarly gang from a recording booth while Gibby distracts Nora (the girl who trapped the iCarly gang.) Guppy is played by Noah Munck's real-life brother, Ethan. Like Gibby, Guppy likes taking his shirt off, but unlike Gibby, he rarely talks and is mostly shown speaking into Gibby's ears. In addition to iPsycho, Guppy also appears in "iSell Penny Tees" when he was on the iCarly webcast, "iDo" when he was riding in his flame little car that is attached to Gibby's bike, in "iStart A Fan War" in which he, Gibby, and their grandfather are driving to Webicon. His signature phrase (towards Gibby) is, "Happy birthday!"; when Carly, Sam, and Freddie are trapped in Nora's basement in "iPsycho", they make a code and send it to Gibby, in which "every fourth word" is a code phrase. He also appears to have psychological problems because in "iStart A Fan War" he says he "hears the voices in his head".
Charlotte
Charlotte Gibson[6] (Lauren Benz Philips in "iGo Nuclear", Deena Dill in later episodes) is Gibby's attractive mother. She was dating Spencer in "iFix a Pop Star", but he broke up with her because he thinks she looks too much like her son Gibby. She appears also in "iGo Nuclear" when Sam gives Gibby a wedgie and she needed to give him his new underwear, "iPsycho" when Gibby went to Camp Spencer in Spencer and Carly's Loft, and in "iEnrage Gibby" offering Gibby a snack while he was punching a punching bag.
Granddad Shay
Granddad Shay (Greg Mullavy) is Carly and Spencer's paternal grandfather who lives in Yakima, Washington.

Ms. Francine Briggs (Mindy Sterling) is a mean English teacher that Carly and her friends like to tease, and one of Spencer's former teachers when he attended Ridgeway Middle School. It is revealed in the episode "iSpy A Mean Teacher" that she likes to exercise in her swimsuit and she is obsessed with Randy Jackson. She returned in Season 3's episode "iHave My Principals" and makes a brief appearance in "iBelieve in Bigfoot". She plays the bagpipes, much to the hatred of the students, and feels that iCarly is bad for the young society. She has a bullhorn, and commonly uses it in the school hallways. She also appears in "iPilot".
Mr. Howard (David St. James) is a math and geometry teacher and detention moderator with an extremely unpleasant personality. A vindictive, hateful, perpetually-angry person that hates practically everything – laughter, children, and even his wife (although it is mentioned in iTwins that he 'makes out' with Miss Briggs in the teacher's lounge, thus meaning he cheats on his wife). Everyone at Ridgeway, including Carly and her friends as well as Principal Franklin, dislike him in return. In recent episodes however, he has shown some respect towards Carly, Freddie, and Gibby (not to Sam, though). He appears in iParty With Victorious when he seems very fond of Stephen (Carly's boyfriend). Later he catches Carly and Sam texting in class and force them to say their texting conversation to the class. Sam later states she texted "colon P" (:P) to Carly, Mr. Howard says he knows all about "colon P", which makes the class laugh and Mr. Howard confused on the joke.
Mr. Devlin (Adrian Neil) is a history teacher at Ridgeway Middle School. He is known for being snotty and very strict to his students, even in his former position as lunchroom monitor. He also despises 3-hole punched paper, as revealed to Carly in the episode "iPromise Not to Tell", when he keeps Carly from getting straight "A"s by giving her a "B" on a history paper making Carly get a "B+" for the semester. He teaches very fast, and if ever asked to slow down, he says no and keeps talking. He also made an appearance in the episode "iKiss", when he tried to help Freddie stand up for himself and shouts "I am Freddie Benson and I have never kissed a girl!", causing everyone to laugh. Embarrassed and running away to avoid being responsible for the outburst, he tells everyone to stop laughing, and calls Freddie an "unfortunate misfit" while he runs off. He is from England, which explains his accent.
Miss Lauren Ackerman (Jessica Makinson) is a mentally unstable, verbally abusive, and possibly bipolar history teacher at Ridgeway. She only appeared in the episode "iHave A Lovesick Teacher", where she temporarily dated Spencer after her former boyfriend dumped her. Anytime she is dumped, she is extremely mean, abusive and unforgiving to her students, in ways such as giving them large homework assignments on chapters they have not read, and giving people F's on quizzes without letting them be taken. While dating Spencer, however, she is kind and giddy, even suggesting that her class go ice skating. She is often possessive, needing to know where Spencer is at all times during the day. When Spencer breaks up with her, she goes back to being crazy and this time making the primary characters do ridiculous punishments, such as making Carly and Freddie do jumping jacks during class and making Sam wash her car. She is arrested for admitting on iCarly that she illegally downloaded 500 songs on her PearPod (parody of the iPod) for Spencer as a present. It was actually a set-up by Carly and her friends to put an end to everybody's misery. She is never seen or mentioned again after that.

Mr. Henning (Andrew Hill Newman) is a hippie science teacher at Ridgeway Middle School. Spencer once had him as a science teacher, but complained that Mr. Henning smelled like rotting wood. He stresses the importance of being environmentally friendly, but does so in the wrong ways, and as a result, he tends to give the majority of his students poor grades because they were doing what is supposed to be correct, but not correct by his standards (e.x. In "iGo Nuclear", Freddie created a high-tech and expensive composting machine, but was marked down for polluting the air by importing worms from Portugal). He is later mentioned in "iBeat the Heat".
Superintendent Harold Gorman[14] (Weston Blakesley) is a Superintendent at Ridgeway Middle School and Principal Franklin's boss, and appeared in "iHave My Principals." He has an abnormally low voice, which at first, stunned Sam. He also appears to have a strong hatred of fun, and fires Franklin simply for appearing on iCarly and playing one of their games, something he feels is below a principal, but proves he has a big heart when he rehires Franklin later in the episode.
Mr. Wimbley (William Cowart) appears in "iPromise Not to Tell" as the computer teacher, where Carly distracted him so Freddie could hack the school's network firewall.

When Carly asks Wimbley about exercise 8, Wimbley exclaims in a whiny voice "I'm in charge!".

Jocelyn (Cynthia Dallas) is a rude senior who appears in "iMake Sam Girlier". She is seen bullying the students in Ridgeway and torturing them (e.g. holding a younger student by his legs for not saying "bless you" after she sneezed).

It is also revealed that she has a love interest for Italian men, as mentioned by Sam in "iGot a Hot Room" so this means Sam and Melanie could be half Italian. At the end of "iSam's Mom", they make up and reconcile their differences.
Krustacia (Irina Voronina) is Spencer's date in the episode "iSell Penny Tees". She is a foreign woman from Uzbekistan.

Spencer was heartbroken and considered giving up art. Carly went to Joyner and demanded he apologize to her brother. At first, he declined, remarking that he has no time for this, but when Carly points out how Spencer became depressed with Harry's vision over his art, Harry feels guilty and decided to go tell Spencer the real reason that he made the remarks (that he was "jealous" of Spencer's sculptures because they were "better than anything that he has done in a real long time").

She only did all this because her family abandoned her and she had no friends except for her chicken. Because of this, despite the fact that she kidnapped them, Carly still felt sorry for her.

At the middle of the episode, Carly and Griffin fight, but it is revealed that it was just a trick to get Spencer to think she is over him. They officially break up at the end of the episode after Carly and Sam make fun of his obsession with Pee-Wee Babies and he overhears them. He returns in "iBeat the Heat", where he is more eccentric then ever as he tries to kiss Carly and comes to the Shays' air conditioned loft because his Pee-Wee Babies cannot be in extreme hot or cold air or they will become misshapen. This makes Sam upset and tells him he "needs to stop obsessing over his dumb little Play Pretties" and she throws one of them out of anger.
Sasha Striker (Lorena York) was the world's best Pak-Rat (parody of Pac-Man) player who appeared in "iStage an Intervention". When Spencer becomes obsessed with Pak-Rat (not wanting to stop playing until he defeats her record), the iCarly gang track her down via their web-show. She is quite beautiful, compelling the reporters covering Spencer's attempt to beat her score to try and ask her to be their girlfriend (she ignores all of the requests). After Spencer defeats her, they flirt and kiss for a few seconds, and she is never seen again.
Jackson Colt (Terrell Lee) is a top 10 MMA fighter and appears only in iLook Alike. He has a son named Kevin Colt and is very sensitive when he does not get what he wants. He is a fan of Carly's comedy on the show, especially Random Dancing.
Hazel (Sherry Weston) is an elderly woman that Gibby met while riding down the street on his bike in "iDo". Once he sees her, he asks her if she can help him retrieve a five-dollar bill that he spotted in a tree. She accepts the offer, but only after Gibby promises her they will go get coffee afterwords. She helps him get the bill by letting him get on her shoulders. After retrieving the bill, she falls down and Gibby drives off and forgets about her. She is last seen on the ground mumbling "Are we still going to get coffee?".
Cal (Jake Siegel) was Carly's assistant in "iGo Nuclear". He was helping her with a school science project during Green Week in Mr. Henning's class, so she would not have to serve the "Root & Berry" retreat. He was actually a criminal because he built illegal nuclear projects using black market uranium. His true self is not revealed until the end of the episode, when three police officers found out who he was after asking where he got his haircut in the Groovy Smoothie. He then bolts out of the shop and the officers reveal his criminal acts, forcing Carly to attend the "Root & Berry" retreat.
Mitch (Danny Woodburn) appears in "iChristmas." He is the guardian angel who granted Carly's wish for Spencer to become normal. When this affects her entire life, however, she soon regrets it and wants everything changed back. Having learned her lesson, Mitch returns Carly's life to normal. In the end, Carly sees a vision of Mitch earning his "wings" (in this case, a bucket of chicken wings).
Melanie Puckett (Jennette McCurdy) is Sam's identical twin sister and appears in "iTwins". According to Sam, she is a straight "A" student, follows all the rules, and goes to a fancy boarding school. She is the total opposite of Sam and even has a crush on Freddie, much to Sam's dismay. Freddie, however, does not believe Melanie is real and thinks that Sam is just pretending to be her, so he asks Melanie out on a date. Due to his beliefs no matter what anybody says, Sam and Carly eventually agree with Freddie, but Sam and Melanie are then seen in the loft elevator together. She is mentioned again in "iThink They Kissed", when Freddie is talking about if he might have kissed someone before. In "iSam's Mom", while Sam is fighting with her mother, Pam asks why she can't be more like Melanie.
Fleck and Dave (Daven Wilson and Joey Luthman) are two teenage boys who cohost a web show, and appear in "iQuit iCarly." The two are good friends, but have very differing opinions, such as the personalities of Carly and Sam. This comes to a head when Fleck paints Dave's dad's car purple for a bit in one of their shows featuring the iCarly gang. An argument breaks out which results in Fleck and Dave separating. Carly and Sam try to patch the problem, but Fleck and Dave both make Sam and Carly think about how the two treat one another. This results in the separation of Carly and Sam. When Spencer helps Sam save Carly's life, they all become friends again. In the end, the four webshowees, along with Freddie, make a fake movie trailer called "The Blowing."
David Archuleta (David Archuleta) made his first appearance is "iRocked the Vote" competing with Wade Collins. David won the vote on "America Sings" (A parody of American Idol) thanks to Sam and Carly.
Cort and Ashley (Daniel Booko and Teresa Castillo) are two teenagers hired as interns in the episode "iHire An Idiot". Cort was hired unrespectively by Carly and Sam without Freddie's approval. Ashley was another intern hired by Freddie without Carly or Sam's permission, and this leads to Carly and Sam trying to get him to fire Ashley. Freddie proclaims that Carly and Sam have to fire Cort first and then he will fire Ashley, but this does not happen until the end of the episode. At the end of the episode, it is revealed that Cort was kicked out of college because he was claimed to be dangerously stupid. Also, it is revealed that, unlike Cort, Ashley works at the Brilliance Bar at the local Pear Computers store (Freddie makes her act stupid to trick Carly and Sam into firing Cort). Cort is later mentioned in "iOMG". It is hinted that Cort and Ashley later dated after the end of "iHire an Idiot".
Steven Carson (Cameron Deane Stewart) is Carly and Tori's ex-boyfriend on "iParty with Victorious". Carly searches Steven's name, and after she sees a picture of him with his arm around another girl (Tori Vega), Carly, Sam, Freddie, Gibby, and Spencer go to Kenan Thompson's party to find out if Steven is cheating. In disguise, Carly sees Steven give Tori a charm bracelet and says "It's one of a kind, just like you." then kisses her which is exactly what he did with Carly. After the iCarly gang take off their disguises, Tori walks in searching for Steven, and upon seeing iCarly exclaims "Oh my gosh iCarly! Do you know how inlove I am with your show?" the Carly replies "No, but I do know how inlove you are with my boyfriend." Carly explains everything to Tori and they agree they need to get revenge on Steven. When Steven walks into the closet where he and Tori are supposed to have there 100-day kiss, he in surprised to find Kenan Thompson who blows a loud horn in his ear, Carly, and Tori who are doing a live iCarly webcast and announce that Steven is both of their ex's an tell everyone that he is a no-good cheater.
