User blog:Asylum117/The Loud House - My thoughts on the show

The Loud House is a very popular show on Nickelodeon and I do understand the praise the show gets. When people watch The Loud House, they see charaters with different personalities and have some things in common themselves from the charaters. Especially people can relate to the show in general, when it comes to families. Me personaly I always see my relationship with my older sisters similiar to Lori and Lincoln Loud bond towards each other. My sister acts like a know it all and she never admits that sometimes, she can be wrong in terms on conversation. And she completlly is obssest with her smart phone. Sound familiar?

The Loud House is like Courage The Cowardly Dog, Dexter's Laboratory, etc. in terms of plot. The entire series is more episodic, then plot driven. Every episode basicly starts with Lincoln talking to the audiance and ocasionaly braking the 4th wall. Lincoln Loud deals with basiclly every day stuff, except there is one catch, Lincoln lives with 10 sisters and each sister have their own personality and hobies. Lincoln always tries his best to keep order in the house, while also doing his best to get what he wants (even tho, in some cases it can backfire badlly). And in the end of the episode there is a moral from the curent episodes theme.

Loud House sounds like a great show with no flaws right? Well, to tell you the truth the show does have it's both good moments and bad moments. But no cartoon show can be perfect.

One thing I truly like about the show, is it's art style. Now, I do hate the fact that MANY todays cartoon shows are going with it's simpler art style, but Loud House does feel like it has effort put into it. The shows style highly resembles a comic book. It has been confirmed that the show was heavaly inspired by Charlie Brown comics and it can be noticed, considering how many Peanuts referances it has.

Some of the charaters are very relatable and very interesting. We as viewers can even see some small part of ourselves from the show, For example. me: I like playing video games, drawing, writing stories, listening to modern rock music and 80's music, I ain't perfect and also I have a good heart. Charater resemblences: Lincoln Loud, Leni Loud and Luna Loud.

Now I want to say that the show doesn't have a big plot and it's ok in my opinion. Not all shows need a big plot to be good, but the problem with that is that the show has episodes that sopose to teach both the charaters and the viewers of the show about making right choices and always being there to be there for your family. However, I do notice that the the show itself makes it's mistakes and some people see this as nitpicking, but I see it as the shows bigest flaw.

The show gives Luna a flashback episode as to why she loves fist concerts so much and why they are so important to her, but I felt like that people just forgot about that detail. Then we find out that in Picture Perfect Lincoln wanted to replace Lori with Carl Pingrey? Was that correct? Anyways, she shows up for one episode and just disapears. Who was she? Lincoln mention that she beat Lori in a chess tournament (can't imagine why). But she shows up in one episodes and that's it. We never see her again. There was even an episode that Lincoln had a crush on another girl, that wasnt Ronnie. Her name was Christina? If I remeber correcly, and she basicly changed schools, after    Making the Case episode. Who the heck is Christina? Why Lincoln liked her in the 1st place? What's her story? Does she even feel the same way about Lincoln? NEVER! EXPLAINED! She just basiclly becomes a one shot background charater that doesn't have any lines in the show. And she showed up in only 2 episodes. TWO! I mean what?

Not to mention that some episodes are made to give Lincoln the short end of the stick. If you watched the show, you notice that Lincoln works his butt off to help his sisters and try make balance in the house, so the family doesn't fall apart. But some episodes make me wonder tho. If Lincoln was never born? Would the Loud sisters just act the same and not one of them would feel like something is missing? Brawl in the Family is an episode that prety much shows, what if Lincoln was never in The Loud House? Basiclly in the episode the girls get into stupid fights and arguments, but after Lincoln leaves for the entire day and stays at Clydes house for the night, he comes back and the sisters say that when Lincoln left, they made up and thanks to their brother leaving the house, they are now best buddies again. WHAT? That's a pretty messed up messege there. But I do get that, if sibling arguments get too far, then it's better to leave you siblings alone for a while, so they can cool off.

So yeah, The Loud House is a good, but it has it's fair share of problems aswell. I still enjoy the show and I am excited to see Bobby's and Ronnie Anne's entire Santiago family tree. :)
