Trainor was brought in for a “rush audition,” which meant the “Drake and Josh” casting directors needed to fill the role ASAP. He also played the eccentric brother of internet superstar Carly Shay in another Nickelodeon staple, “iCarly.” That show ran for 93 episodes across six seasons from 2007-2012.
