Miranda Cosgrove is weighing in on fan reaction to Carly and Freddie making their relationship official on . In season 3 of Paramount+'s revival series, the two friends finally confessed their feelings for each other, putting years of longing and questions of «will they, won't they» behind them as they went public with their romance.«It felt really good to actually see Carly and Freddie be together,» Cosgrove told ET during a visit to the New York City office. «When I read the script, I was like, 'Sixteen years, finally it's happening,' So it was a little bit of pressure though because Nathan and I really wanted to make sure it delivered because people waited for so long.

But it was a big relief when the episode came out and it seems like people really enjoyed it, so that was awesome.»The actress and executive producer shared that Carly and Freddie's kiss wasn't originally in the script and that it was actually improvised, making the moment all the more memorable for fans. «When we're making the writers are always on set and they come over and they'll throw out ideas and we'll do different things almost every take,» she explained. «So it's not pure improvisation because the writers are coming up with different ideas and throwing them at us but it keeps us on our toes and it's really fun filming that way.

And we never know what's going to end up in the final cut, so the very last take of the scene with Carly and Freddie finally professing their love to each other.
