The Loud House

The Loud House is a American adult animated sitcom created by animator and comic illustrator Chris Savino for Comedy Central. The series revolves around the chaotic everyday life of the 11 Loud siblings, led by teenage older brothers bossy Loki and idiotic Lenny. It is set in a fictional town in Michigan called Royal Woods which is based on Chris Savino's hometown of Royal Oak.

The series was originally pitched to Nickelodeon in 2013 as a two-minute short film entered in Nickelodeon Animated Shorts Program, but it was rejected because of its off-color humor, sexual innuendo, dark humor, adult jokes and violence, which it was pitched by Comedy Central instead. It was greenlighted for production the following year. Episodes are produced at Nickelodeon Animation Studio in Burbank, California and animated by the Canadian studio Jam Filled Entertainment. The series is based on Savino's own childhood growing up in a large family, and its animation is largely influenced by newspaper comic strips.

Comedy Central first released two preview episodes of The Loud House to its website in April 2016. The show officially premiered on May 2, 2016. Two seasons have since been broadcast, and a third is currently in development. Paramount Pictures announced in March 2017 that the program will be adapted into a theatrical feature film, with a planned release date of February 7, 2020.

The Loud House has gained high ratings since its debut, becoming one of the most popular adult animated series on American television within its first month on the air. The show received widespread attention and a nomination at the 28th GLAAD Media Awards for its introduction of Howard and Harold McBride, two supporting characters who are a same-sex couple. In May 2017, the show's main characters were featured on the front cover of Variety as an example of cultural and ethnic diversity impacting television programs.

Critical reception
The Loud House has received positive reviews, specifically for its animation, voice acting, characterization, and its off-color humor. Emily Ashby of Common Sense Media praised the show's voice cast and thematic messages, writing that "Comedy Central fans will come to The Loud House for the laughs, but they'll return for the ensemble cast and the surprisingly heartwarming themes that dominate every story." Kevin Johnson of The A.V. Club gave the show a B+, noting that "the characters are defined by their traits, but never judged for them."

The characters of Howard and Harold McBride have received praise for being a positive representation of a married same-sex couple. Laura Bradley of Vanity Fair stated that The Loud House "handles the topic [of same-sex marriage] in exactly the right way...this kind of casual representation in children's programming is a milestone." De Elizabeth of Teen Vogue wrote, "The best part is that the show doesn’t treat these characters any differently, or even introduce them with a heavy asterisk about their marital status." Time reported that "people are thrilled about Viacom's decision" to include a gay couple.
