Chandler McCann is a recurring character in The Loud House who made his first appearance in "The Waiting Game". Biography[]Background[]Chandler is the son of a sewage plant worker. He goes to the same school as Lincoln and Clyde, but doesn't seem to be in the same class as them (though he ends up becoming Lincoln's classmate following "Schooled!") despite Lincoln referring to him as their classmate in "The Waiting Game". He was one of the popular students in elementary school, but this no longer seems to be the case in middle school. Involvement[]He makes his first appearance in "The Waiting Game". His birthday party is coming soon, so he invites each kid in the school, except for Lincoln and Clyde, to the sewage plant where his father works. When he discovers that Lincoln receives free food and tokens in the pizza arcade thanks to Lori, he begins to benefit himself from Lincoln, asking him if he can give him free stuff. After Lincoln makes him a lot of favors, Chandler invites him and Clyde to his party, but also it forces Lori to do overtime because of all the free stuff Lincoln gave to him, and that she's going to miss the dance. At the end, Lincoln decides to cover Lori so she can assist to the dance after apologizing and telling her that Chandler is not his friend because he was using him. He makes a cameo in "Shell Shock", where Lincoln imagined Ronnie Anne pulling a prank on Chandler with their egg. A deleted scene from earlier in the episode also showed Ronnie Anne pranking Chandler by tying his shoelaces together. Chandler has another prominent role in "Jeers for Fears", in which he and his friends, Trent and Richie, plan on checking out the Royal Woods House of Terror. Chandler believes that Lincoln and Clyde are too chicken to visit the attraction themselves, but when Lincoln says that he and Clyde plan to go there themselves, Chandler opts to tag along. When they eventually do go to the House of Terrors, however, Chandler and his two companions ultimately are the ones who end up running out of the house in fear first, as it turned out that they were too scared by the House of Terrors. Chandler then sees that Lincoln and Clyde successfully made it all the way through the House of Terrors (unaware that the pair were actually just as frightened as he was), and worries that they might rub in his shame at school. But Lincoln and Clyde tell him that they won't do that to him, and as a result, he comes to respect them a lot more. In the book Campaign Chaos!, Chandler competes with Clyde in the election for school treasurer. Chandler shows up in "Lincoln & Clyde Review Gus' Games & Grub", in which Lincoln and Clyde are reviewing Gus' Games and Grub. He convinces the hostess, Janet, to give him a table that was actually meant for Lincoln and Clyde, and then wins a chance to spin the restaurant's Wheel of Pizza, much to Lincoln and Clyde's dismay. He ends up winning a big wad of cash from the wheel. Chandler appears again in "Wheel and Deal". In the episode, he appears as one of Lincoln and Lana's rivals in the race. He also reveals that he only cares about winning the race rather than meeting Bobbie Fletcher. Before the race starts, he taunts Lana for how poor her car looks, but shuts up after Lynn threatens him. During the race, he becomes victim to Lincoln and his friends cheating, as they cause him to drive his car into mud. He manages to escape and is last seen after Lana stops the car to scold Lincoln for cheating. It is unknown whether or not he won the race, but he was likely disqualified since he bought his vehicle instead of making his own. In "Schooled!", Chandler now attends Royal Woods Middle School and is a student of Mr. Bolhofner, making him one of Lincoln's classmates. He antagonizes Lincoln at every opportunity, slipping in pudding on his seat and later kicking it as well as sabotaging Lincoln's desk. When Lincoln returns from Canada and wins his classmates' respect by asking Mr. Bolhofner to turn down the heat on the thermostat, Chandler is still unfazed by the outcome and proceeds to kick Lincoln’s chair again, but he is quickly attacked and dragged out of Mr. Bolhofner's class trailer by Liam's new moose Ellie Mae. In "Season's Cheatings", Chandler eavesdrops on Lincoln at the Burpin' Burger and decides to help him with his plight of needing a gift for Lola. He reveals a briefcase full of diamond earrings retrieved from the sewage plant, which Lincoln knows Lola will love. However, Chandler demands payment and refuses to accept Lincoln's mere twenty dollars, forcing Lincoln to sacrifice his coveted Rip Hardcore backpack. Delighted at having two Rip Hardcore backpacks, Chandler celebrates Christmas by playing with Lincoln's backpack only to crash into the Loud House's front yard tree the next morning. In "Zach Attack", Chandler, knowing that aliens aren't real, decides to go to Zach's "alien sighting" party only to tell him he was right. However, when Rusty puts on a convincing show, using one of Zach's flashlights to imitate an alien landing, the others, including Chandler, buy it, and Zach tells him he was right. By the end of the episode, Chandler sees the "alien landing" (actually a ruse made by Rusty, Liam and Stella), and later, when he sees an actual UFO, he is shocked, and Zach offers him one last rebuttal (though neither Zach nor Chandler know that the UFO was actually a drone that was being operated by Flip). In "Rumor Has It", Chandler and his mom were mentioned to have spread a negative rumor about Mr. Bolhofner being a cannibal who uses the alias of "Skull-hofner". In "Grub Snub", Chandler was present at Gus' Games and Grub during a competition between Lincoln's group and Leni's group until it gets out of hand. "Broadcast Blues" marks his third major role, and his most prominent one to date. Initially jealous and mocking of the Action News Team during homeroom (which gets him pelted with food and drinks by his classmates), Chandler nonetheless decides to join them, only to be rejected as Lincoln informs him that the team is full. Chandler is soon able to force their hand by purchasing new equipment that they can have if they let him join. However, Lincoln and his friends come to regret it when his obnoxious behavior begins affecting everyone, including them, with Chandler buying more equipment to get them to grant him more requests. When he finally goes too far on his "Bro in the Know" segment by bullying others, the crew angrily fire him, but he refuses to leave as he is technically the one who bought them new stuff. Luckily, the Action News Team, upon inadvertently learning that Chandler has been selling some things from his dad's sewage plant, trick him into falling for a sting operation and threaten to expose him to his father. Chandler is forced to quit, but he takes his equipment with him since he bought it with his own money. Unfortunately for him, the Action News Team get the last laugh by using their phones as substitute equipment, much to Chandler's dismay. He then gets sprayed by a skunk placed in his locker and is promptly laughed at by fellow student Dirk, whom Chandler earlier made fun of on his segment for walking like a penguin. In "How the Best Was Won", Principal Ramirez mentioned that Chandler had won the award for Best Detention Getter. Unfortunately, he is currently in detention, so Principal Ramirez has to accept the award on his behalf. in "Frame on You", he was seen running away from dance after the stink bomb. Chandler got interviewed with Lincoln and Clyde about the stink bomb. He silently shows them the footage of the incident. In "Present Danger", Lincoln as David Steele plays cards with Chandler, Flip, and Scoots to find out who stole his birthday presents. Lincoln beat them in a card game and neither one had his presents. In "The Taunting Hour", Chandler kept blocking Lincoln's view of Lynn's game at the time when Scoots was heckling her. When the Loud family members who have their own hecklers blame Lincoln for ruining their lives, Lincoln shows them footage of every time Chandler heckled him. While Lincoln states that he has ignored Chandler's taunts, Lynn considers him a jerk while also inspiring the family members to ignore the taunts of their respectful hecklers. In "Musical Chairs", Chandler keeps giving Lincoln problems in Mr. Bolhofner's class and getting him in trouble with Mr. Bolhofner. When Mr. Bolhofner joins The Doo Dads, he has Lincoln reassigned away from Chandler. After Mr. Bolhofner was fired from the band for the many changes to it and Chandler states that he has his steel-toed boots on to kick him, Mr. Bolhofner tells Lincoln not to go back to his original seat after doing some thinking at a jiu-jitsu class and allows Lincoln to keep his current seat. When Chandler gets into it, Lincoln hits the ejector seat button which sends Chandler into Hank's tank as Hank bites Chandler in the butt. In "The Hurt Lockers", Chandler is shown to give his locker partners atomic wedgies, one's having lasted three days. Later in the episode, he sets up a purple gunk prank inside the locker. In "Out of Step", he and Trent (under the guise of his grandmother) face off against Clyde and Nana Gayle in the Royal Woods grandmother/grandson dance competition and intentionally sabotage the latter team's act. However, they are found out and subsequently disqualified from all future dance competitions in Royal Woods. In "One in a Million", Chandler ends up becoming Flip's one millionth customer by beating Lincoln and Clyde after eavesdropping on them. However, the three find out that Flip's supposed reward for it was just a scam. In "Steeling Thunder", Chandler plays another prominent role. He becomes jealous of Lincoln's popularity when he wins the school film festival and everyone treats him like a celebrity. He then sets out to prove that Lincoln didn’t do the stunts in the movie by trying to find evidence. When he finds proof that Lynn actually pulled the stunts and not Lincoln, he tries to show the video to everyone in the cafeteria, but Lincoln and Clyde switch the video to one of Chandler freaking out on a very slow pony ride. Chandler then opts to have Lincoln reenact the stunts from the movie. Unfortunately for him, Lincoln actually manages to perform the same stunts in real life and it causes Chandler to give up, making him even more mad and jealous. In "Close Encounters of the Nerd Kind", Chandler mockingly uses Zach's communicator, causing the aliens to invade the earth. In A Loud House Christmas Movie: Naughty or Nice, Chandler is first seen with his friends, Trent and Richie throwing snowballs at the school sign at Royal Woods Middle School. On Christmas morning, Chandler is made mayor of Royal Woods after Lincoln hacks into the North Pole computers and accidentally switches the naughty and nice lists. He is later seen with Trent and Richie vandalizing the Loud house, much to Rita and Lynn Sr.’s horror. When Lincoln's sacrifice for Duncan generates Christmas magic from his heart and reverts the changes, Chandler loses his mayorship and gets buried under a pile of snow while Trent and Richie walk out on him. In the comic Loud Party, Chandler wrecks Lincoln and Lily’s snowman and begins to destroy the other snowmen the little kids built. He eventually gets the tables turned on him when Lincoln, Lily and her friends attack him with snowballs and make Chandler into a snowman. Personality[]Chandler is a freeloading, conceited and abrasive boy who takes great pleasure in antagonizing other people. He only invited Lincoln and Clyde to his birthday party because they gave him free stuff at the pizza arcade, and not because he likes them as friends. He also frequently calls Lincoln "Larry" and later "Lincoln Lame". He seemed to be very popular in elementary school, as seen in "The Waiting Game" when all the kids were excited to know who was going to be invited to his party. In "Jeers for Fears", he briefly acts respecting towards Lincoln and Clyde, but he reverts back to his old ways as of "Wheel and Deal". By Season 5, he seems to have become even more of a bully towards Lincoln and his friends in middle school, actively bullying Lincoln and getting him in trouble for his antics, and also mocking Zach for believing in aliens. Perhaps for this reason, he no longer seems to be popular with his fellow students like he was in elementary school. He seems to be somewhat spoiled as seen in "The Waiting Game" when he reminds Lincoln and Clyde to bring presents to his birthday party. Chandler is also shown to be rather shady as shown when he finds lost items from his dad’s sewage plant and sells them to make a profit out of it. He is also willing to lie to and cheat others to get what he wants, showing that he has no regard for anyone’s well-being other than his own selfish wants and benefits. Appearance[]Chandler has fair skin and auburn hair in a hairstyle similar to Luna's. Like Lincoln, he has freckles on his cheeks. He wears a long sleeve shirt with white sleeves, which has a print of a gear, gray jeans with a black belt, and white sneakers with green stripes. His shirt color has been known to change throughout his various appearances. In his debut appearance, his shirt is light green with a darker green gear. In "Shell Shock", "Jeers for Fears", all of his Season 5 appearances, "Present Danger", "Out of Step", and "Steeling Thunder", his shirt is yellow instead. In "Wheel and Deal", some scenes in "Schooled!", and all of his Season 6 appearances since "The Taunting Hour", his shirt is dark green with a white gear. Alternate versions[]World without the Loud Kids[] In an alternate reality where Lynn Loud Sr. and Rita Loud never had kids as seen in "Time Trap!", Chandler took Lincoln's spot as the leader of his friend group and all of them share the same brash, bullying attitude.
