The reason why Victorious was cancelled by Nickelodeon was simply this: its ratings weren’t “fantastic”. Victorious would normally average 3 million viewers or so on Saturdays which is good/great for Nickelodeon standards. However, iCarly back in its prime (2008-2010) would easily attract 4.5 to 5 million viewers on average and usually 7 to 8 million for a special or TV movie. Nickelodeon wants the viewers that iCarly had in its prime and Victorious simply didn’t. Nickelodeon depends on Dan Schneider too much for making HIT shows and probably wanted Dan Schneider to create a new show quickly for Nick to be the next”iCarly” in terms of ratings. If they renewed Victorious with a new season of 13 episodes or so Dan wouldn’t be able to create a new show until probably the end of 2013. Nickelodeon viewed it as this: keep Victorious for the rest of 2013 and get 3 million viewers or make Dan S to create a new show which “might” be the next big thing and attract 5 million viewers. Thats why I believe Victorious was not renewed a new season. REPLY
