iTwins Review

iTwins  #17 of Season 2 to air on YTV
Originally Aired:  July 11, 2009 (23rd), Filmed 24th (224)

Synopsis:  Sam's twin sister Melanie is in town, BUT since Carly and Sam have played so many tricks on Freddie he thinks Melanie is Sam dressed up.  He asks Melanie out to trick "Sam" but ends up being kissed by Melanie.  In the end the girls tell him he is right and Melanie doesn't exist.  However, she does and shows up to go out with Sam and Carly at the end.  Til this day Freddie doesn't know if Melanie is real.
Meanwhile Carly tutors Chuck in math and he tortures Spencer, until Carly finds out and then gets him back.

Fun Facts:  
Jennette McCurdy loved playing Melanie and when Dan asked which show people wanted to make a sequel to, iTwins was top on the list!
Chuck returns in all his evil glory.
The soap in the bathroom is constantly mentioned throughout the series.  Gibby has a special love for it.
This episode features the famous "a scissors" line.  Apparently someone on staff actually believed that "a scissors" is the proper way to talk about them, and so they put it in.
Jennette has said that her real voice is between Melanie and Sam.
Spencer pours himself a glass of juice and then leaves it on the counter.
What did Chuck spray on Spencer, it looked like chocolate but tastes horrid.
Sam refers to Freddie as "Fredicini" in this episode.  She constantly plays with his name.
Miss Briggs makes out with Mr. Howard in the teacher's lounge BUT we also know Mr. Howard is married when he talks about his wife in iHave My Principals - so he's cheating on his wife.
T-Bo puts pickles on a stick in this one.
Chuck is NOT dumb in math, if a kid can do operations quickly in base 11 (with derf) then he does NOT need to be tutored.  There is no way I could do that!
Apparently Freddie has loved Carly since 6th grade.
What Chuck does to Spencer:  takes the fridge door off, takes cabinet doors off, sprays him with brown stuff, puts goo in his helmet, beats him up.
The outfit that Carly is wearing in the Derf scene is the same one she wears in the poster that Freddie has of her in his closet shown in the extended version of iSaved Your Life.
Derf comes between 5 and 6.
If you take 12X81 and divide by 2, can you do that in your head fast with derf?
The dance club is called Quisp and is for kids under 21.
Alexandra Basso shows up in this episode.  She is one of the girls who slam dances Freddie.  She plays Freddie's new girl "friend" in iBeat the Heat and her brother is the Freddie look alike in iLook Alike.
Melanie kisses Freddie and then he says "you swore we'd never do that again", he is referring to his kiss with Sam in iKiss.
Sam hates Q because it's an O being fancy with a pointless tail.
Camp Add'em UP is mentioned again in iBeat the Heat when Chuck says he learned to make a special drink there.
I'm surprised Carly didn't ask Freddie more about his kiss with Melanie considering it would have been his "first kiss" because she doesn't know about Sam.

Spencer Side Count:  Once again has to battle Chuck!

Penny Tee Count:  Fries Matter - worn by Freddie

Review: The fact that Jennette McCurdy plays SUCH a different character should have earned her an EMMY!  This episode is fantastic.  It has Freddie being SO cute in the dance club, and I love Melanie and Sam!  And for Seddie fans it has another Seddie kiss!  Sort of.

Total Score: 5/5 for Jennette's amazing acting.
