The Loud House is an American animated television series created by animator and comic illustrator Chris Savino for Nickelodeon.[1] The series revolves around the chaotic everyday life of a boy named Lincoln Loud, who is the middle child and only son in a large family of eleven children. It is set in a fictional town in Michigan called Royal Woods which is based on Chris Savino's hometown of Royal Oak.

The series was pitched to the network in 2013 as a two-minute short film entered in the annual Animated Shorts Program. It was greenlighted for production the following year. Episodes are produced at Nickelodeon Animation Studio in Burbank, California and animated by the Canadian studio Jam Filled Toronto. The series is based on Savino's own childhood growing up in a large family, and its animation is largely influenced by newspaper comic strips.

Nickelodeon first released two preview episodes of The Loud House to its website in April 2016. The show officially premiered on May 2, 2016. Two seasons have since been broadcast, and a third is currently in development. Paramount Pictures and Nickelodeon Movies announced in March 2017 that the program will be adapted into a theatrical feature film, with a planned release date of February 7, 2020.[2]

The Loud House has gained high ratings since its debut, becoming the number-one children's animated series on American television within its first month on the air.[3] The show received widespread attention and a nomination at the 28th GLAAD Media Awards for its introduction of Howard and Harold McBride, two supporting characters who are a same-sex couple.[4] In May 2017, the show's main characters were featured on the front cover of Variety as an example of cultural and ethnic diversity impacting television programs.[5]

Premise

In the fictional town of Royal Woods, Michigan, Lincoln Loud is the only boy and middle child in a family of eleven children. He has ten sisters with distinctive personalities: bossy eldest child Lori; ditzy fashionista Leni; musician Luna; comedian Luan; athletic Lynn; gloomy goth Lucy; polar-opposite twins Lola and Lana; child genius Lisa, and baby Lily. Lincoln often encounters problems as a result of his large amount of family members, which his best friend Clyde helps him solve. Clyde spends much of his time at the Loud House and communicates with Lincoln via a walkie-talkie when he is not around. Lincoln normally explains his issues to the audience by breaking the fourth wall and speaking to the viewers. While most of Lincoln's plans to make his life easier backfire, his predicaments tend to bring the family closer together.

  • Lori Loud (voiced by Catherine Taber)[7] — The 17-year-old eldest child of the Loud family and the only Loud child with a driver's license.

In the episode "For Bros About to Rock," it is revealed that Luna has ruined all of her siblings' first concerts. She also appears to hold the youngest child Lily the most out of her other siblings. It is revealed at the end of the episode "L" is for Love that she is bisexual (on the account that she did have an interest for Hugh in the episode and at the same time has a crush on Sam who was revealed to be a girl at the end of the episode).
  • Luan Loud (voiced by Cristina Pucelli)[6] — The 14-year-old fourth-oldest of the Loud family and the comedian of the bunch. Most of her dialogue consists of bad puns much to the disdain of her siblings. She has braces, wears squirt-flowers on her shirt and shoes, owns a wooden ventriloquist dummy named Mr. Coconuts, and at some times will be seen with a camera. Every April Fools Day, Luan becomes a prank-obsessed maniac, leaving her family and Clyde in complete fear of the holiday as they try to avoid her pranks.

  • Lana Loud (voiced by Grey Griffin)[6] — The 6-year-old fourth-youngest child of the Loud family[10] and the identical twin sister of Lola.

Production

The Loud House was created by Chris Savino for Nickelodeon. Savino based the series on his own experiences growing up in a large family.[14] Early in development, the Loud family was going to be composed of rabbits, but this was terminated when an employee asked Savino to make them human.[15][16] He pitched the idea to Nickelodeon in 2013 as a 2½-minute short for their annual Animated Shorts Program.[17] In June 2014, Nickelodeon announced that The Loud House had been picked up for a season of 13 episodes.[18] The episode order was later increased to 26.[19] On May 25, 2016, Nickelodeon announced that the series had been picked up for a second season of 14 episodes later increased to 26.[20] On October 19, 2016, the show had been picked up for a third season of 26 episodes.[21] Savino has cited Peanuts and Polly and Her Pals as influences on the show's characterizations and animation. Newspaper comic strips are also influences on the show's background art.

Reception

Ratings

The Loud House became the number-one children's animated series on television within its first month on the air.[3] Throughout May 2016, it received an average of 68% more viewers in its target audience of children aged 6–11 than broadcasts on Nickelodeon in May of the previous year.[29] It was Nickelodeon's second highest-rated program (as of June 2016) along with SpongeBob SquarePants, holding an average Nielsen rating of 4.9 among the 2–11 demographic at the time.[30]

The Los Angeles Times cited The Loud House as a major factor in maintaining Nickelodeon's position as the highest-rated children's network in summer 2016.[31] During the show's fourth week of premieres, Cyma Zarghami announced that it was continuing to draw more viewers than any other program on the channel.[32]

The show's highest-rated episode, with 2.28 million viewers upon its premiere, is "Two Boys and a Baby."[33] This was the first episode to air after it was announced that Howard and Harold McBride would be debuting on the program. The first episode of The Loud House shown at prime time, "11 Louds a Leapin'," was the seventh most-viewed telecast across all U.S. households on Friday, November 25, 2016.[34]

Critical reception

The Loud House has been critically acclaimed, specifically for its animation, voice acting, characterization, and the heartwarming themes of each episode. Emily Ashby of Common Sense Media praised the show's voice cast and thematic messages, writing that "kids will come to The Loud House for the laughs, but they'll return for the ensemble cast and the surprisingly heartwarming themes that dominate every story."[35] Kevin Johnson of The A.V. Club gave the show a B+, noting that "the female characters are defined by their traits, but never judged for them."[36]

The characters of Howard and Harold McBride have received praise for being a positive representation of a married same-sex couple.[37] They are the first married same-sex couple to be featured in a Nicktoon.[38][39] Laura Bradley of Vanity Fair stated that The Loud House "handles the topic [of same-sex marriage] in exactly the right way...this kind of casual representation in children's programming is a milestone."[40] De Elizabeth of Teen Vogue wrote, "The best part is that the show doesn’t treat these characters any differently, or even introduce them with a heavy asterisk about their marital status."[41] The Frisky's Tai Gooden mentioned that "kids who have two dads (or moms) will be more than thrilled to see a family they can identify with on TV."[42] Time reported that "people are thrilled about Nickelodeon's decision" to include a gay couple.[43] However, the characters have been met with criticism from conservative media groups. The American Family Association objected to scenes featuring the McBride parents and attempted to push for the episode to be edited to no avail, saying that "Nickelodeon should stick to entertaining instead of pushing an agenda."[44] The Kenya Film Classification Board also called for the suspension of the show on Pay TV service provider DStv, saying that the animated series "promotes the Lesbian, Gay and Transgender agenda."[45]
