Spencer Shay

The Nickelodeon sitcom iCarly centers on Carly Shay, who creates her own web show with her best friends Sam and Freddie. The series stars Miranda Cosgrove as Carly, Jennette McCurdy as Sam, Nathan Kress as Freddie, Jerry Trainor as Spencer, and Noah Munck as Gibby. The series was created by Dan Schneider, who also serves as executive producer.

Carlotta "Carly" Shay (Miranda Cosgrove) starts as a 13-year-old girl who lives with her older brother, Spencer, in Seattle, Washington.

Carly's best friends are Sam Puckett, Freddie Benson, and Gibby Gibson. Carly lives in the "Bushwell Plaza" in apartment 8-C with her funny, often careless, artist brother Spencer Shay.

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 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 occasionally wondered why she and Sam are friends as Sam tends to get her into trouble. Freddie has a crush on Carly, which everyone is aware of. However, she does not feel the same way (which she has told him many times). Despite this, in "iSaved Your Life", Carly wants Freddie to become more than friends because Freddie pushed her out of the way of a truck, getting hit himself instead. Although he was originally eager about their new relationship, Sam later advises him to break up with her. Freddie does so but regrets it later. In "iSpace Out" and "iSam's Mom", it is seen that Carly is claustrophobic. Carly was a vegetarian at one point.
