The original iCarly series was created by Dan Schneider and ran for six seasons on Nickelodeon from 2007-2012. The show revolves around best friends dealing with everyday problems as they film everything to release on a web series.
Cosgrove previously mentioned that the revival will bring joy to audiences who have watched the show before, she also stated that the new version will follow their character's lives as they are now matured.
