The Loud House is a popular American animated TV show created by Chris Savino for Nickelodeon. The series is all about the busy and often funny daily life of a boy named Lincoln Loud. He is the middle child and the only boy in a very big family with 11 children!

The show takes place in a made-up town in Michigan called Royal Woods. This town is inspired by Chris Savino's own hometown. The idea for the show was first shown to Nickelodeon in 2013 as a short film. Production started the next year. The series is based on Savino's own childhood, growing up in a large family. The way it's animated is a lot like newspaper comic strips.

The Loud House first aired on May 2, 2016. So far, five seasons have been shown. The show quickly became very popular, getting high ratings right from the start. It became the top-rated children's animated series in the U.S. within its first month! The show has also been recognized for including diverse characters, like Howard and Harold McBride, who are a married couple. Their introduction was seen as an important moment in children's television. In May 2017, Lincoln Loud and Clyde McBride were even featured on the cover of Variety magazine.

On September 9, 2020, it was announced that The Loud House would get a sixth season with 26 new episodes. There's also a movie based on the series coming to Netflix in 2021. A spin-off show called The Casagrandes started on October 14, 2019.

The Story of The Loud House

The Loud family, with Lincoln (center) and his ten sisters.

Lincoln Loud is the only boy and the middle child in a family of eleven kids. They live in the fictional town of Royal Woods, Michigan. Lincoln has ten sisters, and each one has a very different personality!

Here are his sisters, from oldest to youngest:

  • Lori: The bossy oldest sister.
  • Leni: A kind but sometimes ditzy fashion lover.
  • Luna: A talented musician.
  • Luan: A funny comedian who loves pranks.
  • Lynn Jr.: A super athletic and competitive sister.
  • Lucy: A gloomy, poetic goth.
  • Lana and Lola: Twins who are total opposites! Lana loves dirt and animals, while Lola loves pageants and glitter.
  • Lisa: A child genius.
  • Lily: The baby of the family.

Lincoln often talks directly to the viewers to explain the crazy things happening in his house. He also comes up with many plans to make his life better in the busy Loud House. In the fifth season, all the Loud siblings got one year older. Lori went to Fairway University, Lincoln started middle school, and Lily began preschool.
