In this video, when Jocelyn says "we got the whole iCarly gang," she doesn't mean it in the sense of possession. Jocelyn means to express that the people mentioned are present (in attendance). You can use "got" to express that someone or something is present. Ex: What a successful dinner we had! We got the whole family in attendance. Ex: Look here! They've got both red and green apples at this store.
