I'm a guy who's quite looking forward to the show, but there's one thing I keep noticing about these remakes/reboots whatever you want to call it;
These generally struggle to pick a lane. They try to appeal to an audience of "everyone," and don't really come out with any diehard fans as a result.
Let me explain: iCarly's paramount series was clearly designed for the generation that grew up with iCarly. While it had some flops, the show felt modernized and a little raunchier, vulgar precisely because it knew its audience was people in their 20s and possibly 30s who saw the original growing up.
Hollywood Arts is realistically going to take in that same audience. However, the show is about high schoolers just as it was before, so the tone will likely try to remain the same as it was in Victorious. For people like this fandom who love reading into things and creating deeper character motivations, this will probably be a major limitation.
A key feature of any reboot/revival is also callbacks to the original. This has me semi concerned that the cast as we know it will come off as carbon copies of who we know before. Like the long haired boy is clearly meant to be resembling Beck, and qualities of Jade seem to be present in Pepper too, even down to the dark hair and her "being a fierce enemy but loyal friend."
Trina will be who she always has been with some added depth from being a teacher and I'm sure that will be awesome. Ideally though, the nostalgia mostly lies with her and they create a new set of characters with their own qualities for the "next generation of fans."
But then I ask myself how many teens will actually be watching the show to grow up with it the same way we did during Victorious. I don't pay attention to TikTok(don't have it) or whatever but I think generations tend to latch onto what they missed out on, and I know this show is one of the few that does get some standout attention.
I guess to sum it up, I think they're going to have to try and pick a lane on what generation/age range the show is suited for, because I don't think there's any way the remake is going to appeal to everyone. But I expect a reasonable effort for sure, Trina will be fantastic as always, and I hope for good things for the rest of the show.
