This is a blog post series where I discuss my thoughts on the Loud House Siblings. Welcome to Episode 11: Thoughts on Lynn Loud. The final one of this series. This is going to be long and this is going to be a lot more serious than the others, this isn’t a joke at all. This one is the most different from the rest.

We all have that one character in a show as our Number 1 favorite and that character for me of this entire show is Lynn. This isn’t a lie, I’m not kidding either. I always wanted to do a blog on her, but I was always scared to because of how the reaction would be. But after a while, I’ve had it. So here are my thoughts on her. When the show first began, she interested me the most out of them along with Luan. I have no idea of why, so I didn’t question it. Out of all of the Loud kids, I had the most common with her as I’m also energetic and she also comes off as fun loving even though I also have a lot in common with Luan. I do see her as a person that does have a heart. I’m not that into sports as the only sport I heavily participate in is swimming, but I did play basketball, soccer and tennis for a few years.

Even though she never had any development in the episodes, she did have episodes having her in a main role so I’ve going over those episodes. First up is Space Invader and this episode was great. So Lynn and Lucy have a fight which causes Lynn to choose Lincoln as her new roommate. Linc agrees though not at first, but he gets annoyed due to Lynn’s antics. Linc tries to get Lynn to leave without hurting her feelings, but it doesn’t work not until he notices Lucy and Lynn are both missing each other. Lincoln comes up with a plan to make the roommates get along with each other again. His plan backfires until Linc steps in and gets Lucy and Lynn to make up, but because their room is messy they sleep with Linc and he’s fine with it. Despite many would find Lynn’s antics as “bullying” or “obnoxious” it shows more of her rough and fun part of her personality. In Loudest Yard, she saves Lincoln from getting beaten up by Lola and agrees to help Lincoln learn how to play football. Hank and Hawk (the two bullies from Tricked and before they got names) make fun of Linc and Lynn and she steps to them. Linc decides to have Lynn instead play as him and she agrees. So the two pull of a switch trope for the football season until the last game comes up. In the big game, Lynn gets injured and Lincoln decides to play and fails as he scores the winning goal on the wrong side and his team chases him. In Hand Me Downer, this is more of a smaller role, but it still counts. Linc takes Lynn’s bike to impress three stooges and loses it which causes Lynn to get mad at him for justified reasons as it is her bike. She takes Linc’s bike (the girly one) and wins the competition. Clyde finds Lynn’s bike, but Lynn lets Linc keep the bike. In Lynner Takes All, she is over competitive and it drives her siblings crazy so they beat her… by cheating. She loses it and becomes even more competitive and they try to make her win. They tell her, her gloating is annoying and she gives a heartfelt apology for it and she doesn’t gloat in front of them even though she gloats outside instead of to their faces. Also in one of the podcasts of the Loud House, in Lori’s its revealed that Lynn and Luan were spying on Bobby and Lori to see if Bobby was good enough for their big sister showing that both care for Lori. It’s also the sweetest podcast of them all.

Lynn is the most overhated character of the show and her hate is a lot worse than Clyde’s. Lynn was hated longer than Clyde and is more hated than Clyde. There aren’t that many Clyde haters, this coming from one of them. It’s just sad she gets labeled as a bully for things that really aren’t. She’s rough, but she isn’t a sadistic bully. Fanfics on other sites and most fanfic writers here write her as either a bad sister or a bully which she isn’t both of those things at all.

If she was a “bully” then why didn’t she beat up Linc for taking her bike in Hand Me Downer, she could have easily done it since she was mad and in many fanfics here she beats him up if she is mad. I kind of lost respect for many fanfic writers here for doing that since they did it on purpose. She’s rough as in Space Invader shows she isn’t trying to mess with him she just acting how she normally acts.

Where did ‘Lynn hurts her siblings for fun’ come up? For one, this is a kid’s show not a sadist or messed up soap opera. Two, there is nothing to back this up. In Heavy Meddle, despite she was showing him moves and could have done it in a different way she’s not a bully for that and she wasn’t laughing at hurting him and she was trying to help him like the other sisters.

Toilet humor is bad, but saying Lynn is just filled with this is stupid and unfair. Dutch ovens only appeared in Space Invader and Lincoln Loud: Girl Guru and this doesn’t feel a part of her character. Why? Cause gross humor is what Lana has and dutch ovens never appear again after those two episodes and I remind you those two were early Season 1 episodes. Now the rest of her “humor” is more superstitious like the ‘we can’t be number one if we go number two’ since that highlights her superstitious nature and I’m superstitious, but not that much. Also her superstitious humor doesn’t appear much and she doesn’t really have a big humor impact on the show. Then again none of them do as this show is more slice of life then funny.

NSL, I have to return to you. (Sigh) Yeah, I’m bringing it up to make a point, but in a different way than most have done. Ok, Lynn did start the bad luck nonsense by calling Lincoln bad luck. Then again, Linc himself shouldn’t have convinced others that he was bad luck. Despite Lynn was telling Leni Lincoln is bad luck, Linc himself backed this up making Leni believe and it spread like wildfire. Lori and Lisa didn’t believe this until Linc acted like a bumbling stooge and ruined Lori’s clubs which instantly changed Lori and Lisa to change sides. The parents for some reason also believe Linc is bad luck. The parents have no excuse as they should have known better. Also, Linc could have told Leni he isn’t bad luck and actually try to talk to Lynn. Look, it’s okay to want “you time”, but Linc was asking for what happened. Linc getting kicked out was wrong, but they didn’t flat out disown him. Lynn may have threatened Linc with a baseball bat, but she could have done this in other episodes. In Hand Me Downer or Lynner Takes All she could have threatened him, but she didn’t. In Cheater by Dozen, it wasn’t more of a threat more of “tell us now” glare. Also hating Lynn just for this episode is stupid and petty as she really didn’t play much of a role in this episode. I already made a blog post explaining of why I don’t consider Brawl or NSL canon, type up “My Thoughts on Brawl and NSL”.

Being a poor sport. This has happened in NSL and Lynner Takes All. Now in Lynner Takes All, her behavior was annoying and I didn’t like it. I even had doubts this was bad until the ending. Her apology was the most heartfelt and most sincere one I’ve ever heard and even though she did gloat at the end, don’t forget Lola also tattled to her stuffed animals at the end of “A Tattlers Tale”. Yes, Lynner Takes All could have been better, but this is at least baby steps and shows some development to her. To me, the writers are lazy. Also if she was a big poor sport, then why didn’t she blame Lincoln for her loss in Loudest Yard for her getting her ankle sprained or broken? She’s a poor sport, but she isn’t that big of a one.

Sometimes this wiki feels biased towards her. In One of the Boys, the Genderbent brother s called “the meaner and harsher versions of Lynn”, which is so false. This along with her being a “bully” is brought up a lot in her page and others. She may be rough, but she’s not mean or harsh. If she was so mean then why did she help her other sisters like in Cereal Offender, Room with a Feud, Yes Man to make him happy. If this does come off as a rant that’s because this is something I wanted to say for months so this is bottled up feelings for many months. I also find her better than Luna and I mean way better.

I’m not going to lie. I do want more episodes of her in Season 3 as in character development or an episode with her and Linc to show others she’s not as bad as people say she is. Look you don’t have to have her as your favorite, but give her chance. Instead of hating on her, try to understand her a bit more. Deep down is she that bad that others are making her out to be. Not really. I just hope Season 3 can make others at least like her again, that’s my hope. Even though this is an unpopular opinion, I’m not sad that she’s my favorite. In fact, I’m proud and confident to say she’s my favorite character. But there are more fans of her on this wiki other than me. If you read this entirely, thank you for your time. #StopTheLynnHate



Please don’t leave any bashing comments on her or NSL as it is heated enough and I just wanted this to be a non-heated blog and I don’t want any hate on this blog. Just please don’t. Failure to comply with this will have your comment deleted.
