Top 10 Adult Jokes on iCarly You Definitely Missed

Carly develops an arch-nemesis after the wormy Nevel gives her an unwelcome kiss and she fires back with a fistful of tapenade. In internet troll fashion, Nevel gets vengeance by giving “iCarly” a scathing review on his site. So, how does the gang thwart this diabolical villain? They tattle on him to his mommy. His mom is shocked that Nevel gave Carly a negative review out of spite and is even more appalled to learn that he “stole a kiss” from her. Nevel’s mom is especially surprised since she thought he didn’t like girls. As Nevel points out, he’s going through “changes.” The kids at home might not know what those changes are, but they’ll likely piece it together once their voices start dropping.

Discussing what they did over the weekend, Sam slyly says that she went “shopping” with her mom, which we’re pretty sure means “shoplifting” based on Carly’s disapproving reaction. This is followed by another joke that requires some reading into, at least if you’re under the age of thirteen. Freddie notes that he needs to accompany his mom to her “lady doctor.” Most kids assumed at the time that Freddie was merely talking about a doctor who happens to be a woman. Now that we’re older, however, it’s clear that “lady doctor” is code for “gynecologist.” It’s also possible that Freddie was talking about an obstetrician, although we doubt Mrs. Benson was pregnant. Let’s just be grateful that Freddie doesn’t go into detail regarding the appointment.

To say that Mrs. Benson is a neat freak would be an understatement. Seriously, how many people do you know have pictures of vacuum cleaners hanging in their home? Another decoration you’ll find in the Benson apartment is a framed quote reading, “Wet and sticky, is very icky.” This isn’t the full quote, though, as Mrs. Benson adds in an earlier episode that “Sticky and wet makes Mommy upset.” The line itself already sounds rather dirty and the way Mrs. Benson says it only adds to the innuendo, whether intentional or not. Spencer isn’t sure how to respond and neither are we. Maybe this is the real reason why Mrs. Benson and Lewbert broke up... if you catch our drift.

In this episode, Spencer lands a girlfriend named Connie who does tricks… no, not like that! Well, actually, maybe kind of like that… ugg, let us explain. The trick in question that she performs for Spencer is juggling balls. For the record, we’re talking about actual balls. You know, like the kind that a clown would juggle at a birthday party. Spencer gets just a little too excited whenever she breaks out the balls, however. The joke is only made more suggestive when it’s revealed that Spencer dumped her because she was juggling balls for a few other guys on the side. It’s later clarified that Connie was once again juggling literal balls, but we’re not convinced that’s all she was juggling. Oh, fudge balls!

In Season 2, a conceited British singer named Wade Collins repeatedly calls people “hobknockers,” which is implied to be gross and illegal. Doing some digging into British slang, a “hob” can refer to a “stovetop” or a “machine tool.” “Knockers” is obviously an informal term for “breasts” and, on a side note, “knocking shop” is another way of saying “brothel.” It’s also been debated that “hobknocker” means somebody who does… things with animals. While there are other possible definitions, Wade clearly uses “hobknocker” as a degrading insult. Maybe the “iCarly” writers just thought “hobknocker” was a funny word or maybe they intended to get away with something inappropriate. Either way, the American censors didn’t take action, but the British censors did supposedly edit the episode.

On a trip to find Bigfoot, the gang instead stumbles upon a far more jaw-dropping sight in mother nature’s backyard. Surveilling the woods, Carly spots two squirrels wrestling. At least she thinks that they’re just wrestling. Freddie points out, though, that these nutty animals are up to something raunchier. Upon further inspection, Carly realizes what Freddie is getting at, lowering her binoculars in disgust. And that’s how a generation of young viewers learned where babies come from. We really didn’t need Spencer to elaborate on how “beavecoons” are made, however.

Finding that Carly is the glue who holds their relationship together, Sam and Freddie ask her to accompany them on a date to an Italian restaurant, Pini’s. No, we didn’t mispronounce that. The restaurant is called Pini’s and Gibby is quite ecstatic about it. Sam is an even bigger fan of the restaurant, noting that she wants her naked body to be buried in Pini’s lasagna when she dies. Taken out of context, older viewers are naturally inclined to misinterpret Pini’s for the male member and we’re pretty confident the writers knew exactly what they were doing here. We must admit, though, that Pini’s lasagna does look quite bountiful and we’re sure it melts right in your mouth. Insert “that’s what she said” joke here.

In order to get his hands on a pie recipe, Spencer reluctantly winds up on a date with the increasingly weird Trudy. He invites her over to his apartment for a spaghetti taco dinner, but she’s ready to skip right to dessert. Where Spencer just wants to eat some pie, Trudy wants to eat him up, suggesting that they take the party to the couch. Spencer tries dodging her come-ons by saying that the couch is broken, but Trudy is eager to break it some more. What is this, a Nickelodeon sitcom or “American Pie?” It’s a good thing that Carly, Sam, and Freddie pop in because we’d hate to think how far Spencer would’ve been forced to go for a slice of pie.

Sometimes the most off-color jokes are hiding in plain sight. Throughout the first three seasons, you might’ve noticed that Freddie lives in Apartment 8-D. To the untrained eye, this might seem like a random number and letter jammed together. If you’ve traded your fair share of naughty texts with a significant other, though, you’ll notice a resemblance between the apartment number and… well, let’s just say “pini’s.” Early in Season 4, Spencer changes the Benson’s apartment number to 8-H to throw the Shadow Hammer off track. We can’t help but wonder if the censors also had something to do with this number swap. In any case, this was among the show’s edgiest running gags, not to mention one of the hardest to catch. Before we unveil our top pick, here are a few honorable mentions that aren’t quite as subtle, but nevertheless “shocked America.” Gibby’s Pants Drop “iShock America” Pointy Boobs “iPilot” Long Staff & Large Wrist Balls “iStart a Fanwar”

“Fifty Shades of Grey” has provided an endless source of satire to comedians everywhere. It may’ve been targeted at kids, but “iCarly” was one of the earlier shows to poke fun at E. L. James’ adult novel. In the penultimate episode, Spencer drags Guppy to Funk E. Fester’s to win a prize. The bored Guppy passes the time by reading a book entitled “Nifty Shades of Beige.” One passage is apparently so outrageous that it leaves little Guppy with a stunned expression on his face. We’re not sure what exactly Guppy read, but we think it’s safe to say that the characters in the book were doing something much wetter and stickier than wrestling.
