Samantha "Sam" Puckett (b. April 7, 1994 is a fictional character from the popular children's show, iCarly. She is played by Jennette McCurdy. Sam's full name is Samantha.

Character History

Her full name is Samantha, but everyone calls her Sam and she is never addressed by her full name on the show. She is Carly's best friend but tolerates Freddie. She is rebellious and comedic, and doesn't really like to do homework (or work at all). She enjoys playing leap frog, big banners, baking cookies, and making goop in her spare time. She controls the sound effects on the iCarly webshow. She has actually confirmed that if she had to choose her mother or ham, she would choose ham. If she forgets to have breakfast at her house, she will eat in class (as seen in "iDream of Dance"). Sam is a tomboy with a punk-rock, skater taste in clothes. She often bickers with Carly's neighbor and schoolmate, Freddie. It is also revealed in iPromote Techfoots that she was born on a bus because her mother wasn't very good at planning things. It could also be considered that Sam's mother is somewhat neglectful, as Sam has stated that her mother doesn't feed her in iPromote Techfoots and that she likes dumping her with Carly and Spencer in iHeart Art(although she also said that reason her mother likes to do that is her mom thinks she'll stay out of jail).

Sam enjoys making fun of him, in iWill Date Freddie she lifts his shirt up and gives him a wedgie. As seen in iHeart Art she will literally be driven insane if she doesn't make fun of Freddie, and will also pay to insult him. She also tends to get herself in trouble and blames Freddie for it, though at times she makes Carly take the blame. She has done wrong so many times that if she did not blame it on someone, she would be expelled. She has also been shown to be very violent. It was also reveled in iWant a World Record, that she has an apparent fascination with "the World's Fattest Priest."[1]

On one occasion she intimidated a classmate into telling her she was not aggressive. Sam is usually shown to be lazy, and will often slack off work. She usually blames Carly, Gibby (a classmate) and Freddie for what she's done. As seen in "iWanna Stay With Spencer" she borrows money without repaying it. It was said that Sam was thinking of putting live lobsters in the trunk of her teacher's car, the same stunt pulled by Drake Parker from Drake & Josh.[2] It is seen in almost all the episodes that she loves to eat.

Sam once had a boyfriend named Jonah (Freddie's friend from French class), whom she broke up with because she found out he tried to kiss Carly after hearing Carly and Freddie talking. On iCarly, Sam, tricked Jonah into getting a "WEDGIE BOUNCE!".[3]
