Uh oh…looks like there’s a bit of trouble happening on the Sam & Cat set, guys.
After the show’s big win on Saturday at the 2014 Kids’ Choice Awards for both Favorite TV Show and Favorite TV Actress for Ariana Grande, Deadline reports that everything might be up in the air on a future for the show.
“There has been talk about discord on the set, with emotions running high and Jennette McCurdy and Grande sometimes showing up late. The grueling, 40-episode shoot has been taxing on everyone. Additionally, McCurdy had been going through a difficult time in her personal life for the past six months and recently had to deal with the leak of racy photos, while Grande‘s music career has taken off a big time,” the site writes. Eek!
The rumors continued, “I hear things came to a head last week when the show came close to a shutdown. Then this past weekend, McCurdy publicly accused Nickelodeon of unfair treatment. She also fueled speculation about a rift with long-time best friend Grande by un-following Grande on social media and not joining her co-star at [the awards, where creator Dan] Schneider receiving a lifetime achievement award.”
WHAT DO YOU THINK is happening? Do you think the show will end?
Jennette McCurdy goes head to head with Danielle Morrow once again in this new still from Sam & Cat‘s upcoming episode.
In “#SuperPsycho,” Nora (Morrow) makes a return and targets Dice as a way to get revenge on Sam (McCurdy). With nowhere else to turn, Sam and Cat (Ariana Grande) are forced to ask for some unlikely help from Nevel (Reed Alexander).
