iCarly

TV show · 2021

This Paramount+ revival follows a now-twentysomething Carly and her friends navigating adult life, careers, and dating — a deliberate step up in maturity from the beloved Nickelodeon original. The series covers three seasons (2021–2023) and consistently carries more grown-up humor, language, and romance content than the show young fans of the original will remember.

Best suited for tweens 12 and up who are already familiar with the original; the original Nickelodeon iCarly (2007) is the better pick for younger kids.
