iCarly premiered in September 2007 on Nickelodeon. The live-action sitcom ran for five seasons and 109 half-hour episodes.

The back-to-back series premiere on September 8, 2007 was simulcast on The N (the nighttime block on Noggin), except without the hosted TEENick segments that were shown on Nickelodeon. This means that The N technically premiered the series about one minute before Nickelodeon did. And the second episode started about eight minutes earlier on The N than when Nick started to air it.

In addition, the first airing of “iPilot” was an extended version from what was later broadcast (and what resides on digital platforms like iTunes and Amazon). It runs about four minutes longer, and is available on the show’s DVD release and was on Netflix when they originally had rights to stream it. There were also extended versions of other episodes, like “iCarly Saves TV” and “iSaw Him First”, which either aired during the original premiere or during “iCarly Webbiest Wednesday” blocks. Extended versions of “iSaved Your Life” and “iParty With VICTORiOUS” are noted in the episode list below.

iCarly also had an extensive amount of short-form web segments that were available on iCarly.com. At various points, Nick would air these segments between episodes in “Webbiest Wednesday” and “Webbiest Week” events.

The first season of the series was originally extended to a large 40-episode order; however, the 2007-08 Writers Guild of America strike caused production to cease after the 25th episode. The second production season was therefore extended to a whopping 45 episodes, a very uncommon order for a live-action sitcom.

A joint spin-off series, Sam & Cat, premiered in 2013. A second spin-off and continuation series, also titled iCarly, debuted in 2021 on Paramount+.
