User blog:AustinDR/Reasons to HATE the Loud House


 * 1) The mean-spirited tone: Of course, I completely understand if anyone despises the show for this reason. At times, the characters are unlikable, and there is a sense of a hateful tone in some of the episodes. For instance, Lincoln often tends to be on the receiving end of harsh jokes, and is often the one to get hurt the most. Besides that, the Loud kids fight each other often, they sometimes lack redeeming traits, etc. It doesn't go as far as say Family Guy in its cruelty, but I can understand if the mean-spirited tone is off putting to some.
 * 2) The fandom: With every fandom, there are good fans, and then there's the bad fans. These fans often get up in arms whenever Lincoln faces the slightest disadvantage, they demonize his sisters to make them seem to be evil personified. Alternatively, the sisters are divided into two groups: the mean sisters and the good sisters. Or there are also times when some of the fans target other cartoons that they despise; for instance, when SpongeBob won the 2017 Kids Choice Awards (again), many fans of the Loud House expressed unfiltered anger for the outcome of the voting. Keep in mind that while the LH is a great show, there was really no way that it could've won, because SpongeBob is an established show that had been on the air for years. While I no longer care for SpongeBob, I wasn't surprised that it won again. Or there's also the fact that many fans of the Loud House take some episodes too seriously. I personally hate a few particular episodes, but at most, I'll state my reasons for why I hated the episode, and that's it. Some fans take their hatred for an episode too far to the point that they express desires of having the writers get fired or never writing again, just because they made one bad episode. That's not even getting into the shipping for the show. While I think Loudcest is wrong, I don't try to make the person who ships Lincoln with any of his sisters and vice versa as an abomination....well, except for that one time that the sisters got pregnant....yes all of them, even Lucy, Lola, and Lana who are eight and six respectively. I'm going to save you the details into how they got pregnant, but all I'll have to say on this matter was that I had to take a massive drink of brain bleach to get that image out of my head. At the very least, I don't think the Loud House fandom is as bad as the Steven Universe fandom. While I love that show, I hate it because of how obvious it leans towards the left wing, and the fact that some "SJWs" attacked an artist just because she drew a picture of Rose Quartz as a skinny woman. She almost committed suicide because of all of the accusations being tossed her way.
 * 3) Predictability: The episodes are predictable. I honestly could guess how the outcome of a certain episode will be. They often play it for "Oh no, how will Lincoln and the girls get out of this one?" I often roll my eyes at this because of course they would figure out a way to solve this or whatever. The episodes come off as cliched as they play on several different tropes that other cartoons have already done. For instance, all the kids make a bet to wane off their habits; oh, how original! It's not like Ed, Edd n Eddy did an episode with that exact premise. What's this? Lily says a bad word? Oh, it's not like SpongeBob SquarePants and the Powerpuff Girls did this plot already. Besides that, the show also rehashes episodes, albeit they change them up a bit so they could slightly come off as original. One instance is "Toad and Tiaras." While my favorite episode, there are other episodes that seemingly recycled that plot; "The Loudest Yard" does this with Lincoln and Lynn, "Making the Grade" has something similar to this with Lisa trying to act like an average kid. There are times when I was genuinely surprised that my predictions didn't happen as I initially thought; for instance, with "Relative Chaos" I was genuinely surprised by the ending, because the show leans itself so much to status quo is god that while I did predict that the Santiago family would move, I made the theory as a laugh instead of it being a possible outcome.
