00:17young actor who appeared in several early 2000s TV teen sitcoms, including iCarly.
00:22One of the first TV shows to really understand the coming impact of the Internet, iCarly
00:26was a Nickelodeon hit series that premiered in 2007, and a recent reboot iCarly series
00:32in 2021 has kept up the show's impressively sound legacy.
00:36The series featured many guest stars over its now nine seasons, including Daniel Bucco,
00:40who had a big role in one particular episode.
00:43Actor and model Daniel Bucco got his start in minor, but memorable, performances in popular
00:48TV shows and movies, including The Suite Life of Zack & Cody, Entourage, American Pie Presents,
00:54Band Camp, The O.C., and more.
00:56Many viewers who were young in the 1990s and 2000s will remember Daniel Bucco's appearance
01:01in Hannah Montana.
01:02He's become an increasingly recognizable face thanks to his starring role in the Vunderpump
01:07Rules spinoff, The Valley, where he and his wife, Nia Sanchez, co-star alongside a group
01:12of young adults trying to deal with the realities of adulting.
01:15Daniel Bucco played Courtley in turn in an iCarly episode.
01:19Bucco is hired for his looks rather than his talent.
01:21Court, Daniel Bucco, taking off his shirt for Carly, Miranda Cosgrove, and Sam, Jeanette
01:27McCurdy, in iCarly.
01:28Of his many one-episode appearances on classic TV shows, his performance as Court in iCarly
01:33may be his most memorable.
01:35Court appears in season 4, episode 8, I Hire an Idiot, where he has the ignominious role
01:40of playing the titular idiot.
01:42When Sam, Jeanette McCurdy, and Carly, Miranda Cosgrove, begin to struggle with the amount
01:47of work it takes to keep the show running, they decide to hire an intern.
01:51Despite the capable applicants, Sam and Carly go by looks and decide to hire the attractive
01:56Court, who knows nothing about hosting a web show.
01:59To get back at the girls, Freddy, Nathan Kress, hires an incompetent but conventionally attractive
02:03assistant of his own, Ashley, Teresa Castillo.
02:07After enough miscues, the trio accept that they should just run the show.
02:11Court is a very funny character whose indifference to how hard his making Freddy's job feels
02:15like something taken right from the set of the show.
02:18Unfortunately there were some unqualified people on the set of iCarly making life harder
02:21for the crew.
02:22Bucco is perfectly dopey, but with his winning smile, it's not hard to see why Sam and Carly
02:27kept him around.
02:28What's next for Daniel Bucco?
02:30Bucco will co-star in an upcoming comedy film.

03:00Michael Boss that's about a country bumpkin, Jeff, David Heckel, who travels from his farm
03:05to Hollywood to become an actor.
03:07He moves in with two aging actors, Logan, Bucco, and Steph, Eli C. Hale, and they all work
03:12together to find success.
03:14Daniel Bucco could very well have an exciting second half to his career, beginning with
03:18The Valley and Jeff, and it will be interesting to see where these roles end up leading.
