Jerry Trainor from the TV series iCarly said in an interview that the upcoming reboot of the series will be more ‘grown up’ than the original series. In an interview with Page Six, the iCarly star revealed that there will be some ‘sexual situations’ in the reboot series.

During the interview, Jerry Trainor who played the role of Spencer Shay said that they will ‘toe the line’. It's not going to be super raw, but there are going to be sexual situations. He also added that people are quite excited after hearing him say ‘damn it’ in the trailer, but he said they are grown-ups, so it is fine. Jerry also joked about the sexual scenes and said that it is basically like an Andrew Dice Clay concert.

In the same interview, Nathan Kress, who essayed the role of Freddie Benson said that the show has evolved. He said that the reboot series is an adult show and is not made specifically for kids. He added that it has been fun for the cast as they got to see where the characters from iCarly are after 10 years in their life. He also said that the show shows the transition in a very realistic and non-glossy way. During the interview, Nathan also said that when he walked into the sets of Spencer’s apartment, he was astonished by the changes that were made for the reboot.
