It was also nominated for the 2012 Emmy Awards. iCarly was a massive success. In 2012, however, Victorious- another of Schneider's creation- won the Kids Choice Awards for Favorite TV show, ending iCarly's dominance.
Other works of Schneider have also done well for themselves as well. Sam & Cat won Favorite TV Show at the Kids Choice Awards in 2014.
Basically, Dan Schneider has ruled Kids television and he is growing stronger, churning out great works like Game Shakers and Henry Danger.
Dan Schneider has also achieved some success in film. He scripted the movie, Good Burger which was a commercial success for Paramount Studio and has also enjoyed a "cult following". Another one of his film credit, Big Fat Liar made$52 million at the box office.
