Plot
''Welcome to the Loud House! Home to Lori, Leni, Luna, Luan, Lynn, Lucy, Lana, Lola, Lisa, Lily and… Lincoln Loud!''

''As the only brother in the house with five older sisters, five younger sisters and one bathroom, life in the Loud house can get pretty crazy. From unwanted makeovers to exploding science experiments to getting the perfect seat for the family road trip, there's no problem too large--or bedroom too small-- for Lincoln! And despite all of the headaches, he wouldn't have it any other way.''

''Lincoln's secret to surviving in the Loud House? Always have a plan. And with a little help from his best friend Clyde, Lincoln can handle anything his sisters throw at him.''

Production
Chris Savino based The Loud House on his own experiences growing up in a large family. He pitched the idea to Nickelodeon in 2013 as a 2½-minute short for their annual Animated Shorts Program. In June 2014, Nickelodeon announced that The Loud House had been picked up for a season of 13 episodes. The episode order was later increased to 26.

Early in development, the Loud family was originally going to be a family of rabbits, and instead of 11 children, there were going to be 26, a reference to the fact that rabbits can reproduce so quickly. Clyde was a beaver at this point. An employee at Nickelodeon suggested to Savino that it would be best if the characters were humans. At first, Savino disliked the idea. However, the more Savino thought about it, the more he realized that the characters being human was a more striking choice, so he changed the characters from rabbits to humans, and also lowered the number of children from 26 to 11 in order to make things less complicated.

Jam Filled Entertainment, a Canadian-based animation studio located at Ottawa (now owned by Boat Rocker Media), animates the whole series digitally with Toon Boom Harmony software.

Animation notes

 * The show's animation style has been inspired by various newspaper comics:
 * The backgrounds are more crudely styled than those of the characters, and the detailing of paper can be seen. The episode title cards are also in the style of such.
 * Certain things don't move, such as the flag at Lincoln's school.
 * Occasionally, some characters are drawn with their eyebrows floating above their eyes, or partially detached from their head.
 * All characters have black eyes instead of colored eyes. In addition, when a character's eyes are closed, the lids are usually shadowed in a darker color than their skin.
 * Characters only have four fingers.
 * To add the feel of 90's shows, Mom and Dad's faces are blocked and usually seen from chin down. Other adults avert this.

Trivia

 * The name of the series is a pun on the phrase "loud house", which means a very noisy house. This is also a reference to the Loud family's constant mess.
 * The title design of the series remembers The Mickey Mouse Show title.
 * For the creation of the show, Savino took some art concepts from different comic strips like Peanuts and Dennis the Menance. He also based on some of his first works like Rocko's Modern Life, Hey Arnold! and Kick Buttowski: Suburban Daredevil.
 * This is the first cartoon created and directed by Savino himself, as in the other cartoons where he has worked he only was the producer or storyboard artist.
 * This is also the first Nickelodeon animated series that shows a homosexual couple, becoming a more popular and controversial series.
 * The way that the Loud parents' faces are never seen remembers earlier cartoons, like the parents from Cow and Chicken, the humans from Tom & Jerry (whom faces are never seen) and Ms. Bellum from The Powerpuff Girls.
