    Bud Grouse 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/mr_grouse_3.png
Voiced by: John DiMaggio (English)
Played by: Peter Breitmayer

The Louds' grumpy neighbor.


  • Ascended Extra: Going by the credits of his debut episode where he was referred as just "Neighbor", Grouse was apparently not meant to be anything more than just that. Completely different from his current status as one of the most prominent non-Loud characters, having multiple episodes dedicated to him (including the first 30-minute one of the whole series).
  • Cranky Neighbor: The Louds' antics, especially Lincoln's, tend to get on his nerves. But deep down, he considers them friends.
  • Early Installment Character-Design Difference: Has a different design in his the first two episodes he appears in "Chore and Peace" and "A Novel Idea" before gaining his permanent one in "A Tattler's Tale".
  • Freudian Excuse: The reason he's rude to the Louds (or possibly the reason he gets extra grumpy around Christmas) is because he himself comes from a big family but is unable to see them, so they remind him of his loved ones. Later episodes also indicate that his wife is deceased, so that's probably a factor as well.
  • Fun-Hating Confiscating Adult: "11 Louds A-Leaping" has a series of flashbacks in which the Loud kids' toys end up in his backyard. He keeps them, and tells the children, "My yard, my property!" By the end of the episode he relents and returns years of toys to the kids. Lincoln accidentally smashes his window shortly thereafter, so it remains to be seen if the cycle will begin anew.
  • Grumpy Old Man: He's grumpy and he's old.
  • Hidden Depths: He's pretty good with computers once he learns how to use them.
  • Hidden Heart of Gold:
    • In "11 Louds a Leapin'", after Lincoln organizes a surprise Christmas party for him and the Loud family offers him a ticket son he can go see his family, he gives to Lincoln his old sled as a Christmas gift.
    • Further shown in "Good Sports", when he ends up bonding with Lynn Jr. over a football game. Although initially annoyed that she invited herself over and with some of her actions, he warms up to her to the point of giving her a signed football he and his late wife received at the first game they attended. Even during the ensuing baseball season, where the two fall out due to supporting opposing teams, he's the first to suggest they can still watch the game despite this, as well as being the one to call Lynn back over when it becomes clear that they still enjoy each other's company.
  • Jerk with a Heart of Gold: In spite of his grumpiness, he is capable of cordial interactions with the Louds and even working together with them. (Although they often have to bribe him with free food to get him to do so.)
  • Ironic Name: His first name is "Bud", not what you'd expect from a not overly friendly guy like him.
  • Last-Name Basis: With the Louds, although he does occasionally refer to them by their given names.
  • Meaningful Name: He certainly does grouse a lot.
  • Technologically Blind Elders: He has no idea how to operate a computer and takes everything literally. The Loud kids help him with it, however.
  • Sour Outside, Sad Inside: See Freudian Excuse above. "11 Louds a Leapin'" shows that the main reason for his grouchiness is that he misses his family, and can't visit them.
  • Took a Level in Kindness: He seems to get along a bit better with the Louds after the Christmas special. Not by much, but it's noticeable.
  • Trademark Favorite Food: He has a fondness for Lynn-sagna, to the point that the Loud kids bribe him with it whenever they need him to do something for them. Mr. Loud even thinks he has a "lasagna addiction".

    Howard and Harold McBride 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/howard_and_harold_mcbride_from_the_loud_house_roughin_it.png
Howard voiced by: Michael McDonald (English), Miguel Ángel Ruiz (Latin America)
Harold voiced by: Wayne Brady (English, "Overnight Success"-"Cat-astrophe"), Khary Payton (English, "An Orchid Grief" onwards), Tommy Rojas (Latin America)
Howard played by: Justin Michael Stevenson (A Loud House Christmas), Stephen Guarino (The Really Loud House)
Harold played by: Marcus Folmar (A Loud House Christmas), Ray Ford (The Really Loud House)

Clyde's parents.


  • All Gays Love Theater: One of them (it's unclear which one since the Louds seem to be on a Last-Name Basis with them) put himself in theater school by working as a plumber.
    • They also have weekly theater nights in which Clyde is included.
  • Alliterative Name: Howard and Harold. Also Mr. and Mr. McBride, which they're often called by the Louds.
  • Breakout Character: They became more and more prominent as the series went on, no thanks to their positive reception as a married gay couple.
  • A Day in the Limelight: They have their first huge role in "Attention Deficit". They have another one in "Snow Way Down".
  • Depending on the Artist: Howard has buck teeth, but depending on the scene, they either stick out or are hidden when he closes his mouth. The former is the most common.
  • Exhausted Eye Bags: They both have these on the sides of their eyes, which makes sense because they spend so much time worrying about Clyde.
  • Fat and Skinny: Romantic example.
  • Foil: Unlike Lincoln's parents, they cannot handle babysitting all ten of Lincoln's sisters at once, though they can handle Clyde just fine. Conversely due to only having one kid, they dote on Clyde far more than Lincoln's parents do to the Loud Children.
  • Foreshadowing: Note that before they appeared on screen, Clyde always referred to them as "my parents" and never "my mom and dad".
  • Gag Nose: Subverted. Howard has the longest nose out of all the characters, but it hasn't (yet) been pointed out or used in a joke.
  • Good Parents: They do nothing but dote on their son, feed him organic well made meals, and generally don't leave him wanting.
  • Happily Married: They even have pet names for each other: "Howie" and "Hare-Bear".
  • Ink-Suit Actor: Harold does look a bit like his voice actor, albeit chubby.
  • Invisible Parents: Until their on-screen debut, they had only been mentioned by Clyde several times.
  • Ironic Name: They are two married men, but their surname is McBride (bride being the term used to describe a woman on her wedding day).
  • Kaleidoscope Hair: Howard's hair oddly changes from his normal fire-brick red shade to light brown in episodes set during the winter. It's unknown if this was a mistake or if Howard dyes his hair red and is a natural brunet.
  • Men Don't Cry: Subverted. Howard always gets overemotional while watching Clyde grow up and tends to cry tears of joy a lot.
  • Nice Guy: Both of them. They treat Lincoln like one of their own, extending the courtesy to the other Loud siblings even though it taxes them.
  • Opposites Attract: They're almost as different as can be, both appearance-wise and in terms of personality, but they love each other.
  • She's a Man in Japan: Since Arabic-speaking countries are notoriously conservative, Howard in the Arabic dub was made into woman and given a female voice actor to Hide Your Gays.
  • Straight Gay: For the most part, neither Howard nor Harold hold any Camp Gay stereotypes despite being a couple. And even then the Camp Gay stuff in "Attention Deficit" is mostly Played for Laughs.
  • Supreme Chef: At least compared to the food at the Loud House. Harold serves Lincoln with organic roasted chicken with a homemade marinade with vegetables from the McBrides' own garden. The McBrides cook a Christmas dinner in "11 Louds a Leapin'". Lynn even comments on their cooking when she visits them. Although at the end of "Attention Deficit", they're so overwhelmed from dealing with the Loud sisters they resort to eating frozen dinner... that they didn't even heat up.
  • Too Many Babies: While they can handle a few extra children, it's natural that two parents only experienced in raising one child at a time would crack under the pressure of dealing with all 11 Loud Siblings at once.
  • Trying Not to Cry: In "11 Louds a Leapin'", Howard cries tears of joy after watching Mr. Grouse befriend Lincoln. Harold, who is usually much calmer than Howard, tries not to cry... only to start bawling and admit that it's the most beautiful thing he has ever seen.
  • Twofer Token Minority: Harold is African-American and gay.
  • Uncle Pennybags: They are clearly better off than the Louds, due to having two incomes and only one child, but are nothing but nice.
  • Vague Age: They could be anywhere in their forties. It's also possible that Harold is at least slightly older than Howard, thanks to his lack of hair, wrinkles and calmer personality, but the only thing certain is that they have been married for twenty years.

    Bumper Sr. and Jancey Yates

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/yates.PNG
The Louds' new perfect neighbors.

    Dr. Simmons 
Played by: Brian George
A neighbor of the Louds' and their family doctor, exclusive to The Really Loud House.
  • The Bus Came Back: In Season 1, he first appeared in "The Blemish Dilemish" and never surfaced again for that season. He came back in the Season 2 premiere, "A Musical to Remember".
  • Canon Foreigner: So far only exists in The Really Loud House.
  • The Medic: Being a family doctor and all.
  • Trademark Favorite Food: He has a fondness for fried chicken, which Lynn Sr. exploits in "The Blemish Dilemish" to get him to be the Louds' family doctor.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/agnes_6.png
Voiced by: (English) Susanne Blakeslee
Voiced by: (Latin America) Rebeca Patiño
Voiced by: (Italian) Lucia Valenti

A fifth-grade teacher. She's taught Lincoln and his friends from Seasons 1 to 4.


  • Demoted to Extra: She loses prominence from Season 5 onward with Lincoln moving to middle school. So far, she's had a few cameo appearances since then.
  • Hartman Hips: Her butt is the largest section of her body.
  • Hidden Depths:
    • Or not so hidden. Mrs. Johnson likes mechanical bull riding.
    • She accidentally showed the class a picture of her doing so in "Shell Shocked".
    • It's the stated explanation for how she broke her leg in "Study Muffin".
  • Mrs. Robinson: She hints at this in "Along Came A Sister".
  • Prim and Proper Bun: Complete with a pencil in it.
  • Reasonable Authority Figure: She's usually understanding and fair toward her students.
  • Redhead In Green: She has red hair, and wears a green outfit.
  • Strong Family Resemblance: She greatly resembles her mother from "Stall Monitor".

    Principal Wilbur T. Huggins 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/principal_huggins_2.png
"I guess we can just let it slide... NOT!"

The principal of Royal Woods Elementary.


  • Animals Hate Him: "Sand Hassles" and "She's All Bat" have him get attacked by bats and crows, respectively.
  • Dean Bitterman: He can easily come across as this on the surface. Less so if you learn his Hidden Depths.
  • Demoted to Extra: Downplayed. With Lincoln and his friends graduating from Elementary School, Mr. Huggins is not around as much anymore, but he still occasionally appears in Lucy's episodes.
  • Dodgy Toupee: Sports one during the second half of Season 4. It inexplicably vanishes when the next season comes by.
  • Freudian Excuse: In "Pulp Friction", he reveals that he tried to prevent Lincoln and Clyde to submit their comicbook at the Ace Savvy contest because he wanted to win its prize, a meeting Ace Savvy's creator Bill Buck to thank him, as when he was a child he didn't have a lot of friends and reading Ace Savvy comics was his only solace during his lonely childhood.
  • Hidden Depths: He's a strict, no-nonsense principal. He also listens to "Ooh Girl" from "Boyz Will Be Boyz" and is a big fan of the Ace Savvy comic books since childhood.
  • Hypocrite: For all of his commitment to making sure the rules are followed, he doesn’t always practice what he preaches, as some episodes (e.g. “Frog Wild" and “Pulp Fiction”) have him do dishonest (confiscating Lincoln and Clyde's comic under the pretense of them breaking the rules) or flat-out illegal things (searching the fifth grade students' houses without a warrant) to further his goals.
  • Hypocritical Humor: In "The Write Stuff", he insists Rita to teach the writing club by reading from the rule book, but it's enough to even bore him to sleep after a while.
  • Jerk with a Heart of Gold: While he is the antagonist of several episodes, it's shown that he has a heart, and is reasonable enough to listen to Lincoln's arguments. At the end of "Frog Wild", he agrees to not dissect the frogs after listening to Lincoln and Lana.
  • Mysterious Middle Initial: We have yet to learn what the "T." in his name stands for.
  • Nice Mean And In Between: The strict and grouchy Mean to Ramirez’s In Between and Rivers’ Nice.
  • NOT!: He's very fond of this expression, saying it in almost every episode he appears in. For instance:
    In the classroom: "I guess we can just let it slide. NOT!"
    When inspecting the Loud house: "I don’t see any frogs here, I guess I’ll just be on my way. NOT!"
  • Not So Stoic: He was completely broken by Ricky the Rooster's death and openly wept at his funeral.
  • Reasonable Authority Figure: While he can easily come off as a Dean Bitterman on the surface, he usually is reasonable enough to listen to the kids' arguments and to agree with them if they are right.

    Coach Pacowski 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/coach_pacowski.png
Voiced by: Jeff Bennett

The gym teacher at Royal Woods Elementary.


  • Acrofatic: He is surprisingly agile for a man of his physique.
  • Basement-Dweller: He Lives with his mother in a houseboat.
  • Drill Sergeant Nasty: He typically acts this way toward his students.
  • Gym Class Hell: He once constructed an obstacle course with a fence made of barbed wire.
  • Freudian Excuse: It's revealed in "Out of the Picture" that he originally wanted to pursue a career in Irish step-dancing, but couldn't due to his fallen arches, of which leads to anger issues.
  • Official Couple: With Nurse Patti as of "Teachers' Union".
  • Sadist Teacher: As stated under Gym Class Hell above, he created an incredibly dangerous obstacle course and forced the kids to run it.
  • Would Hurt a Child: Whether it’s subjecting his students to torturous exercises or attempting to use physical violence on them, he doesn’t seem to have any problem with harming children.

    Nurse Patti 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/nurse_patty.png
Voiced by: Lara Jill Miller

The school nurse at Royal Woods Elementary.


    Ms. Shrinivas 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/ms_shrinivas.png
Voiced by: Angela Malhotra
A kindergarten teacher. She's Lisa's teacher from Seasons 1 to 4.
  • But Not Too Foreign: Her last name implies that she may be Indian.
  • Chuck Cunningham Syndrome: With Lisa aging up and graduating from kindergarten, she hasn't made an appearance since. Despite still working at the same school Lisa goes to.
  • Surrounded by Idiots: Inverted. Her students are of the average kindergartner intelligence, which she can handle; it's Lisa's heightened intelligence, unchildlike behavior, and overall antics that prove to be challenging.
  • Tuckerization: Named after former writer Sheela Shrinivas.

    Ms. Allegra 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/img_9498.png
Voiced by: Sabrina Fest ("Community Disservice"), Debi Derryberry ("Sister Act" onwards)
Played by: Kate Bergeron
A first-grade teacher. She's taught Lana and Lola from Seasons 1-4, and Lisa from Season 5 onwards.
  • Let's See YOU Do Better!: After being fed up with Lisa's “corrections”, she makes Lisa try to teach the class herself.
  • Noodle Incident: She claims that before Lisa, Lola was the worst Loud she's had to deal with in her career. Knowing Lola's Bratty Half-Pint nature, whatever Lola's done under Miss Allegra's tutelage definitely was not pretty, and it's implied the twins weren't the first Louds she's dealt with.

    Cheryl Farrell 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/cheryl_7.png
Voiced by: Grey Delisle
Principal Huggins' secretary.
  • Beehive Hairdo: Lampshaded in "Double Trouble", where she claims a horde of bees chasing her are mistaking her beehive for theirs.
  • Big Eater: In "Brave the Last Dance", Clyde presents free sample desserts. Cheryl takes three of them.
  • Dreadful Musician: "Listen Out Loud" reveals she's a terrible singer. When put on the spot to sing by Lana, Cheryl lets loose with a terrible rendition of "Hush Little Baby".
  • Hidden Depths: Turns out she's just as experienced in the field of beauty pageants and is also a practiced stage actress.
  • Southern Belle: Has a very heavy southern drawl, and is incredibly well-mannered.
  • Verbal Tic: She has a tendency to start every single sentence of hers with "sugar".

Royal Woods Middle School Staff

    Mr. Bolhofner 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/mr_bolhofner.png
Voiced by: James Arnold Taylor
Played by: Brian Thomas Smith

A math teacher at Royal Woods Middle School, and Lincoln's homeroom teacher from Season 5 onwards.


  • Ambiguously Brown: Mr. Bolhofner has very dark skin, but nothing else to suggest a specific ethnicity.
  • Cool Teacher: Despite his Sadist Teacher tendencies, he's called "Mr. Coolhofner" for a reason. Some of his cool moments include supplying costumes for the school performance in "Flying Solo" and saving Lincoln and his friends from a bear in "Rumor Has It".
  • Hair-Trigger Temper: Just about anything sets him off: students not being in their seats or running late, getting cut off, being mistaken as older...
  • Hidden Depths: "Flying Solo" shows that, despite his hardass attitude, he is willing to work with Zach in designing survivalist costumes for the glee club. And "Rumor Has It" shows that he's a surprisingly good dancer, and is actually hurt by the rumors kids have about him.
  • In-Series Nickname: He's usually called "Mr. B" or "the Hof". "Rumor Has It" also reveals that some kids call him "Skullhofner," and Lincoln eventually calls him "Mr. Coolhofner" after the main events of the episode, a nickname Mr. Bolhofner himself embraces. In "Musical Chairs", the Doo Dads call him "B-Hof".
  • Jerk with a Heart of Gold: At the end of "Schooled!", when Lincoln asks if Mr. Bolhofner can turn down the thermostat, he politely obliges and turns the thermostat down, mentioning that nobody ever asked him to before. It's more prominent in the episode "Rumor Has It".
  • New Job as the Plot Demands: Mr. Bolhofner is Lincoln's homeroom teacher a vast majority of the time, but you can occasionally find him working a different job, such as a driving instructor in "Driver's Dread" or a senior citizen tour driver in "The Orchid Grief".
  • The Pig-Pen: By Season 5, he looks considerably dirtier, having stubble and stained clothes.
  • Sadist Teacher: By Season 5, he began picking up negative traits, acting more like a Drill Sergeant Nasty type. That didn't stop him from showing the occasional softer side, though.
  • Semper Fi: He spent 15 years in the military, and certainly shows it in his attitude.
  • Suspiciously Similar Substitute: When Lincoln goes to middle school, Mr. Bolhofner essentially takes Coach Pacowski’s role as the Sadist Teacher the white-haired kid has to endure.
  • Took a Level in Jerkass: After spending Season 3 as a strict but fair teacher, he's gotten rather worse in Season 5, as seen in Sadist Teacher above.
  • You Need a Breath Mint: According to Lynn, his breath reeks of sardines with a hint of red onions and farts. He gets this from constantly eating tuna casserole, and he enjoys forcing his breath on Lincoln just to torment him.
  • Younger Than They Look: He's apparently 34 according to "Kernel of Truth". Stella thought he was 62, which actually offends him enough to sue the school.

    Meryl Farrell 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/meryl_farrell.png
Voiced by: Grey Delisle
Principal Ramirez's secretary, and Cheryl's younger sister.
  • Beehive Hairdo: Just like Cheryl.
  • Foil: Cheryl and Meryl look pretty much identical to each other, but they differ greatly in personality:
    • Cheryl seems like the more intelligent one and is generally more mature and responsible.
    • Meryl, while not stupid, is a bit more feeble-minded than her sister and is also generally a bit more reckless.
  • Hypno Fool: Gets hypnotized by Zach in "Saved by the Spell" to dance.
  • Uncanny Family Resemblance: Well, she and Cheryl are sisters, so they're bound to be similar—Meryl looks so much like Cheryl that Lincoln initially mistook her for Cheryl before Meryl corrected him. The only real physical differences between Meryl and Cheryl are the fact that Meryl has a mole on her cheek and her hair is a lighter shade of brown compared to Cheryl's. In addition, she wears a pink blouse and purple skirt.
  • Southern Belle: Like her sister, Meryl speaks with a noticeable southern accent.
  • Verbal Tic: Is just as prone to starting sentences with "sugar" like her sister.

    Chef Patricia 
Voiced by: James Arnold Taylor ("Kernel of Truth"), Alex Cazares ("Diss the Cook")
The lunch lady at Royal Woods Middle School.
  • Berserk Button: Flip trying to steal her food or drinks, which usually warrants her chasing him away with a shrill shout of "PHILLIPINI!!!!"
  • Gonk: Her appearance can best be described as "trollish".
  • Jerk with a Heart of Gold: "Diss the Cook" shows that she's been subjecting the Loud kids to terrible lunches because Rita supposedly didn't invite her to the high school graduation party. However, when she learns that it was a misunderstanding, she expresses genuine remorse and tries to make amends for it.
  • Lethal Chef: "Kernel of Truth" shows that one of the ingredients in her one-bean chili is a boot. However, "Diss the Cook" shows that she's capable of being a Supreme Chef, though she would often invoke this trope on the Louds out of spite.
  • Progressively Prettier: Not to a significant degree, but her design becomes overall less monstrous halfway through Season 5.
  • We Used to Be Friends: She was friends with Rita in high school, but after she was seemingly snubbed an invite for the graduation party, she developed a grudge toward Rita, and took her vengeance on her through the Loud kids.

    Principal Ramirez 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/principal_ramirez.png
Voiced by: Marisol Nichols
Played by: Susie Castillo
The principal of Royal Woods Middle School.
  • Adults Are Useless: She is completely and utterly useless in solving Lincoln's middle school issues, even contributing to them by transferring him to a Canadian school.
  • Nice Mean And In Between: The stern but forgiving In Between to Huggins’ Mean and Rivers’ Nice.

Royal Woods High School Staff

    Principal Rivers 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/principal_rivers.png
Voiced by: Mela Lee
The principal of Royal Woods High School.
  • The Ditherer: Of "The Wishy-Washy" type with shades of "The Insecure/Submissive". She's too spineless to actually assert her authority and just can't seem to make up her mind about anything. The pressure of trying to decide which school club to cut drives her to lie on the floor in the Troubled Fetal Position.
  • Nice Mean And In Between: The timid but calm Nice to Huggins’ Mean and Ramirez’s In Between.

    Kate Bernardo 
Voiced by: Grey DeLisle
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/mrs_bernardo_redesign.png

The drama teacher at Royal Woods High School.


  • Ascended Extra: She was originally just Bobby's drama teacher that was called up for a prank in "Jeers for Fears", but from "Stage Plight" onwards, she more or less becomes Luan's mentor and a recurring figure in several episodes.
  • Attention Whore:
    • She loves announcing herself before arriving at class.
    • In "Director's Rut", she arrives at the school theater being carried by cheerleaders and using a radio to play crowd cheering noises. Benny implies those stunts from her are normal.
  • A Day in the Limelight: One of the two major characters in "Stressed for the Part", alongside Luan herself.
  • Drama Queen: As befitting of her profession.
    Ms. Bernardo: And the agony lives on. Luan, would you lead acting warmups? I'll be brooding tragically in the wings.
  • Early Installment Character-Design Difference: Her original design in "Jeers for Fears" looks completely different to her redesign from "Stage Plight" onwards.
  • Ink-Suit Actor: She looks like an animated caricature of Grey DeLisle.
  • Eccentric Mentor: For Luan. Big, big emphasis on "Eccentric".
  • Large Ham: As is befitting of a stage actress-cum-drama teacher.
  • Small Name, Big Ego: She is very proud of any roles she manages to land, bragging about them as if they were notable achievements regardless of their actual importance, like playing an unassuming confused customer in a fast food commercial for example.
  • Playing a Tree: She's seen doing this in her resume photo.

Recurring Adults

    Phillip "Flip" Phillipini 
Voiced by: (English) John DiMaggio
Voiced by: (Latin America) José Antonio Macías
Voiced by: (Italian) Walter Rivetti
Played by: Kevin Chamberlin

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/flip.png
"Flip has a policy of never showin'up empty handed...I also have a policy of never leavin' empty handed!"

The owner of Flip's Food & Fuel, a gas station and convenience store.


  • Alliterative Name: Phillip "Flip" Phillipini.
  • Ambiguously Human: "Blinded By Science" reveals that while he looks human on the outside, he's not exactly human on the inside. He's got organs in the wrong spots and can't feel pain at times, not to mention he's able to withstand subzero temperatures. In "Any Given Sundae", he's established to have already grown a second set of wisdom teeth, and as a teenager, he was able to spontaneously grow his mustache in anger. Also, according to "Flip This Flip", he sweats nacho cheese.
  • Ascended Extra: Flip's way more prominent in later seasons, enough to be considered a Spotlight-Stealing Squad for some.
  • Buy or Get Lost: In the short "Muscle Fish", he's stated to have once kicked out a kid for loitering while his mom was checking out.
  • A Day in the Limelight: He's the main antagonist of "Intern For The Worse", plays a big antagonistic role in "Snow Way Out", is the protagonist of "A Flipmas Carol", and a major character in "Flip This Flip". In The Really Loud House, he's also a central character in "The Princess and the Everlasting Emerald".
  • Early Installment Character-Design Difference: His iconic red shirt was not a thing in Season 1, being plain white instead. He also used to have fairer skin.
  • Foil: To Ronnie Anne's grandfather Hector. While they both are motivated by money, Flip is a greedy flim-flammer who cuts corners, uses his equipment in ways that the department of health would find alarming, falsifies lottery tickets, and takes every chance he can to make a dishonest buck off anyone, even if they're a child.
  • Fat Bastard: He's overweight and quite the swindler to boot.
  • Formerly Fit: "Recipe for Disaster" and "A Flipmas Carol" reveal that Flip was skinnier in his middle school years.
  • Freudian Excuse: According to "A Flipmas Carol", he became a swindler after getting swindled by Scoots during his Christmas dance.
  • Greed: Flip is both a cheapskate who tries to get the most for the least money, and a dishonest crook of a business owner who does all he can to make a buck off his customers, or even perfect strangers.
    • In "Net Gains" Lynn manipulates Flip by describing customers flocking to him when the basketball team he sponsors wins.
    • In the same episode, when his basketball team wins the championship, he offers them congratulations by giving "one free Flippee for all of you." True to his Exact Words, he hands them one drink with five straws.
  • Handwriting as Characterization: Flip tends to misspell words, which fits with his Book Dumbness.
  • Hidden Depths:
    • Despite his reputation of being a gross old guy with poor hygiene, Flip enjoys long hot baths and fancy lotions.
    • In The Really Loud House, he's decent with a banjo and capable of making a delicious scramble. The Louds, despite being used to Lynn Sr.'s "professional, high-end cuisine", are absolutely wowed by it.note 
  • Honest John's Dealership: This guy is a swindler, no question about it. Among other things, he sells expired milk and falsifies lottery tickets.
  • I Was Quite a Looker: He used to be quite handsome as a middle school student, as seen in "Recipe for Disaster" and "A Flipmas Carol", but was still just as much of a trouble maker as he is in the present day.
  • Jerkass: A Con Man who takes advantage of Lincoln and Clyde when they become his interns. In "Snow Way Out", he refuses to help the kids if Lana doesn't give him her winning wrapper, abandoning them when they're snowed in the Burpin Burger.
  • Jerk with a Heart of Gold: That being said, he does have moments where he proves he's got a heart.
  • The Nicknamer: Except for Lincoln, he refers to the Loud kids by their defining feature rather than their name.
    • Lola is "Fancy Loud"
    • Lucy is "Spooky Loud"
    • Lana is "Muddy Loud"
  • Not My Lucky Day: Flip seems to believe in psychic phenomena. He gets a reading or prediction from Lucy every time she offers them, and every time she has turned out to be right in an unexpected way where Flip is concerned. Usually it's a form of comeuppance for his greed and cheapness.
  • Only Known by Their Nickname: He mostly just goes by "Flip," though he does occasionally go by his real name.
  • Pet the Dog: He does this in "The Loudest Thanksgiving" where, despite still being rather greedy, he actually does try to help the two families realize that they should be able to see eye to eye, and show support. He even sheds a tear when they sing at the end.
  • Running Gag: Every time Lucy gives Flip a psychic reading, it comes true in a way that gives him his comeuppance for being a big jerk.
  • Spotlight-Stealing Squad: Despite his status as a divisive character, he has been featured in more episodes than any other supporting character in the series, except in The Loud House Movie, where he is Demoted to Extra, and A Loud House Christmas, where he doesn't appear at all.
  • Third-Person Person: Tends to refer to himself as "Ol' Flip."
  • Would Hurt a Child: "Snow Way Out" shows that Flip isn't above putting young people in harm's way if it gets him what he wants, in which he left all of the Loud kids to freeze in a snowed-in Burpin' Burger without a single doubt.
  • Younger Than They Look: His appearance would suggest that he's at the very least in his late 50s, but he's been shown in flashbacks to have been classmates with Lynn Sr. and Rita, putting him at around his mid-40s.

  • Badasses Wear Bandanas: In his first appearance, he wears one.
  • Bouncer: Served as one at one of Luna's sleepovers.
  • A Day in the Limelight: Along with Luna, he's the main focus of "Roadie To Nowhere".
  • Eccentric Mentor: Chunk seems to fancy himself one. He has a touched look of pride when Luna performs at the Royal Rumble which he himself performed at when he was a kid.
  • Face of a Thug: Do NOT let the image fool you; he may look like a thug, but he's most definitely got a heart of gold.
  • Hidden Depths: The season 3 premiere reveals that he's in his own band.
  • Intergenerational Friendship: Chunk is as old as many of the parents on the show, but is clearly friendly with 15 year old Luna. All the adults seem to have signed off on this adult hanging out with that kid.
  • Huge Guy, Tiny Girl: Non-romantic example with Luna.
  • Nice Guy: For a guy of his stature, he's remarkably friendly and well-mannered.
  • Noodle Incident: It's currently unknown how Luna can afford a roadie or why a 30/40-something muscular man is working for a teenager.
  • Older Sidekick: He's probably somewhere in his 30s or 40s, but yet he's working for a 15-year-old girl.
  • Put on a Bus: Luna gives up a spot in a professional rock band and recommends Chunk for it.

    Scoots 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/scoots_new.png
Voiced by: Grey Delisle
Played by: Jill Jane Clements
A young-at-heart old woman who shares the same retirement community as the Loud kids' grandfather, is always shown riding a red scooter.
  • Age-Gap Romance: In "The Boss Maybe", she has one with a younger, buff man.
  • Ascended Extra: Given that she only appeared in one episode in Season One, she more than likely was intended to be nothing more than a one-shot gag character.
  • Cool Car: well, cool scooter. It's capable of freeway speeds and apparently has a Hammerspace seat and helmet compartment.
  • Cool Old Lady: She is mostly a grumpy old woman, but she has her moments, like in "Mall of Duty", where she helps Lincoln rescue Lily from a runaway train. She is also a fan of survivalist Rip Hunter and calls him her Bae.
    • In "Pulp Friction", Lincoln apparently thinks of her as both cool enough and mean enough to be a super villain in his own comic book.
  • Cool People Rebel Against Authority:
    • "For Bros About To Rock" Scoots gets in trouble with Mall security enough that she is a regular in their mini jail cell.
    • "The Old and the Restless" Scoots goes out of her way to do whatever Battleaxe Nurse Sue forbids her from doing at the retirement home where she lives with the Loud kids' grandfather Albert.
  • Cool Shades: Scoots is (almost) never seen without her wraparound blackout sunglasses. This is also an example of dark humor, because blackout sunglasses usually signify blindness, and Scoots is seen driving everywhere in Royal Woods, including the freeway. Her eyes are finally revealed in "The Boss Maybe" when her shades break.
  • Depending on the Writer: In some episodes, she’s willing to assist the Louds and their friends. Other episodes, she’ll act like a total bully towards them. In other words, how she behaves towards them really depends on the episode plot.
  • Grumpy Old Man: She is often shown to be a female version.
  • Intergenerational Friendship: Has one with Lynn Jr. in disguise in "Racing Hearts."
  • Jerkass: Scoots comes across as unpleasant and grumpy.
    • She insults Clyde's dancing by saying "My hip can pop and lock better than you."
    • When one of the kids yells at her to cross the street faster, Scoots' smiles sweetly and puts the scooter in reverse to spite them.
    • Her first reaction when Lincoln asks her to help him save his baby sister stuck in an out-of-control toy train is to retort: "That sounds like a YOU problem."
  • Jerk with a Heart of Gold: Although a jerk, she can be helpful towards Lincoln.
  • Karma Houdini: She quite often gets away with her rude and unpleasant antics.
  • Karma Houdini Warranty: In later seasons, she does suffer some misfortunes.
    • In "Resident Upheaval". It is revealed that she's been keeping a room big enough for two people in the retirement home for herself, and is ultimately forced to give it up so Lincoln and Clyde's grandmas can use it.
    • In "Cat-astrophe", she repeatedly has tuna-flavored cake stuffed into her mouth.
  • Only Known by Their Nickname: The nickname "Scoots" refers to her scooter, but her real name is never revealed.
  • Screw Politeness, I'm a Senior!: Scoots lives and breathes this trope.
  • Third-Person Person: She sometimes speaks like this.
  • Unsatisfiable Customer: Scoots enjoys being contrary for contrariness' sake, but sometimes she just acts like the cranky old lady she is. In "Roadie To Nowhere" she drives Luna up a wall by repeatedly complaining and making changes to her Cobb salad order, until Lynn Sr. has to step in when Luna loses her temper.
  • What Does She See in Him?: Inverted; How the rude, unpleasant Scoots managed to net herself an attractive young boyfriend is anybody's guess.

    Kotaro 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/kotaro_2.png
Voiced by: Phil Lamarr

Lynn Sr.'s best friend.


  • Nice Guy: He seems to be a pretty decent fellow.
  • Recurring Extra: Usually shows up with a minor role whenever the story needs showing one of Lynn Sr.'s friends.
  • Satellite Character: Generally, not much is known of him other than the fact that he's a close friend of Lynn Sr.'s, and that both share a lot of the same interests (i.e. vans, music, cow bells, etc).

    Grant 
Voiced by: Grant Palmer
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/grant_full_body.png
Burpin' Burger's cashier, at least until the end of Season 3. He currently works at Lynn's Table.
  • Ascended Extra: He was a nameless fast food employee, but now works directly under the Louds.
  • Burger Fool: He certainly thinks of his job at the Burpin' Burger as this.
    "I can't take another second in this greasy dungeon!"
  • Casting Gag: He's voiced by Grant Palmer, who voiced Lincoln from "Left in the Dark" to "A Fair to Remember" before hitting puberty.

    Ms. Carmichael 
Voiced by: Kari Wahlgren
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/ms_carmichael.png
The manager of Reininger's and Leni's workplace boss.
  • Mean Boss: Downplayed. Ms. Carmichael can be a reasonable manager, but she's shown to be very demanding, and enforces certain questionable policies like prohibiting Reininger's workers from shopping for clothes at rival stores. She also fires Leni over circumstantial evidence instead of any sort of concrete proof in "Crimes of Fashion".
  • Not So Above It All: The only reason she doesn't fire Fiona from violating the aforementioned store policy is because the deal for the dress Fiona bought was that good.

    Dana Dufresne 
Voiced by: Maddie Taylor
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/dana_dufresne.png
Click here to see her early design

A male-to-female transgender beauty pageant host and judge.


  • Alliterative Name: Dana Dufresne.
  • Effeminate Voice: Even before transitioning, Dana had quite a feminine and flamboyant voice.
  • Gag Nose: Her nose, pre-transition, was quite long. It shortened a bit after she transitioned, though it's still larger than most characters.
  • Large Ham: Being a pageant host, she's quite the flamboyant type.
  • Old Friend, New Gender: She first appeared pre-transition in "Toads and Tiaras". From "Gown and Out" onwards, she's transitioned.
  • One-Steve Limit: Shares her first name with a recurring minor friend of Lori and Bobby.
  • Progressively Prettier: She started out with a rather oddly shaped head and a very long nose. After transitioning, her design changed to give her a shorter nose and a more normal shaped head.

    Dr. Shuttleworth 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/dr_shuttleworth.png
Voiced by: Mindy Sterling, Alex Cazares ("Appetite for Destruction")
The owner of a fancy daycare that Lily attends as of "Schooled!"
  • Ditzy Genius: Despite being a child expert, she is easily fooled by Lisa's Paper-Thin Disguise, and thinks Leni is a volunteer when in fact she'd stumbled into preschool by complete accident.
  • Friend to All Children: She's experienced with children and seems fond of them.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/7080fa3f47a07c8af6f5f716b0b68828326a5219_00.jpg
A racer who Lana idolizes.
  • One-Steve Limit: Not to be confused with Lori's beloved Boo-Boo Bear, although it's downplayed since her first name is spelled differently.
  • Nice Girl: She's shown to be very nice to her fans.
  • Pet the Dog: Even though Lana had to give up her winning wrapper to Flip, after seeing how quickly the girl fixed her car (claiming that she was faster than her entire pit crew), Bobbie offers her the chance to join her pit crew once she turns 18.

    Hunter Spector 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/hunter_spector.jpg
Voiced by: Brian Stepanek

Host of the TV show Academy of Really Good Ghost Hunters (ARGGH!)


  • Nice Character, Mean Actor: Subverted. While his ghost hunting is staged, he truly has a desire to capture real, live ghosts. However, making a TV show means you are restricted in what you can do in terms of time and budget, forcing him to stage his ghost encounters. He also cares for his fans and seems rather polite with his staff (except when they pester him about pay day).
  • Nice Guy: He truly cares for his fans and his crew.
  • Pet the Dog: Stages a ghost hunt with Lincoln to restore Clyde's belief in ghosts.

    Katherine Mulligan 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/katherine_mulligan.png
Voiced and played by: Catherine Taber

An anchorwoman for Royal Woods News.


  • Ambiguously Brown: Her skin is darker than most Caucasian characters, making her appear mixed-race, possibly half-Latina or half-Afro. However, A Loud House Christmas implies she's white and just has a tan.
  • Ascended Extra: Has a larger role in A Loud House Christmas, and Clyde even has her contact.
  • Given Name Reveal: Her name was revealed in "Scales of Justice".
  • Ink-Suit Actor: She bears a strong resemblance to Catherine Taber, made more obvious when Taber got to physically play her in A Loud House Christmas.
  • Jerkass: In "Out on a Limo", when she arrives to report on Lincoln's downfall, she cracks an insensitive joke and refuses to give him a ride in the news van on the grounds that "it isn't done."
  • Official Couple: Has this with Rodney Spokes (Rusty's dad) of all people.
  • Took a Level in Kindness: She becomes much kinder in A Loud House Christmas and the episode "Scoop Snoop"'.
  • Verbal Tic: She talks as if she's giving a report even when she isn't, much to the annoyance of her camera crew.

    Rip Hardcore 
Voiced by: Bert Kriescher
Played by: Brian Patrick Wade (A Loud House Christmas), Miles Burris (The Really Loud House)
A survivalist Lincoln is a fan of.
  • Ascended Extra: A minor character in the animated series, he's gone on to be an antagonist in the franchise's first live-action outing, and gets a focus episode in The Really Loud House.
  • Bald Head of Toughness: In the animated series, at least. Not so much in live-action, where he's shown to have a full head of hair.
  • Hero Antagonist: In A Loud House Christmas, he's merely trying to stop the Sharkodile and save Royal Woods, not realizing it's fake and is being controlled by Lincoln and Clyde.
  • Walking Shirtless Scene: He's never seen with a shirt on, except in live-action media.

    Mick Swagger 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/mick_swagger.png
Voiced by: (English) Jeff Bennett
Voiced by: (Latin America) Idzi Dutkiewicz

Luna's favorite musician.


  • Eyes Out of Sight: Much like Lucy, his hair conceals his eyes.
  • Nice Guy: His attitude to Rock and Roll is that it doesn’t matter how good you are, it only matters if you have fun. He even liked the Loud family’s... less-than-stellar performance in ‘House Music’ simply because they all clearly had the time of their lives.
  • No Celebrities Were Harmed: Based on Mick Jagger.
  • Older Than They Look: Mick hardly looks like he’s had a “forty year” long career by this point, unless he started when he was very young.

    SMOOCH 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/s1e13a_smooch_concert_starting1.png
Pucker Uppenheimer voiced by: Jess Harnell

A famous four member rockstar band, of whom Lincoln and Clyde are avid fans of.


  • Expy:
  • Nice Guy:
    • They allow Lincoln, Luna and Clyde to join them up on stage in "For Bros about to Rock", with the lead singer even singing with Lincoln.
    • In "Yes Man", they show up at Lincoln's VIB concert.

    Theresa Davis 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/mayor_davis.png

The mayor of Royal Woods.


  • Benevolent Boss: She praises Leni for her work as an intern. She also forgives her and gives her credit for one of her campaign ideas in "Electshunned".
  • Berserk Button: Doesn't take it kindly when someone uses her keyboard.
  • Black Boss Lady: Has dark skin and is the mayor of Royal Woods.
  • Genki Girl: She's usually shown to be very peppy and happy.
  • Hartman Hips: Has a thick bottom half.
  • Nice Girl: Leni has stated she's a nice person who's done good things for Royal Woods.
  • Not So Above It All: Despite being the mayor she has her comedic moments.
    • When the Doo-Dads are doing their warm-up routine when she asks them to play at the park, she joins in despite it being silly and awkward.
    • Its implied in "Save Royal Woods" that she had organized town meetings just to show off a new sound on her keyboard.

    Dr. Alvarez 
Voiced by Krizia Bajos
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/img_9377_5.png
A paleontologist, who works at the Royal Woods museum. She teams up with Lisa, when she thinks she actually dug up an actual dinosaur bone.
  • Nice Girl: A very friendly woman, who sincerely wants to get more kids into science. Even when she discovers Lisa had lied about the bone, she still gives Lisa another chance, showing she's not one to hold a grudge.
  • Foil: Alvarez is this to Dr. Carol Linnaeus. Both of them are famous scientists and give Lisa an offer to work with them. But while Dr. Carol Linnaeus pretends to be affable, to get the chance to experiment on Flip Dr. Alvarez is sincerely nice and has no ulterior motives at all and wants Lisa on a science show, so more kids can get into science.
  • Friend to All Children: She is very fond of kids, wanting to find ways in order to help ease them into science. She's also very kind to Lisa and while she isn't happy with her lie about the fake bone, still gives her another chance, by having her as the tour guide of the museum.

Antagonists

    Lord Tetherby 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/tethery_img1.jpg
Voiced by: Alan Ruck

The heir to the tetherball fortune and one of the richest men in Royal Woods. When Lincoln wins a ride in a limo, he mistakes him for one of his fellow rich people.


  • Aristocrats Are Evil: Or at least jerkasses. He's a lord and a very unpleasant person.
  • Bitch in Sheep's Clothing: At first he seems like a Nice Guy, but if you happen to not be a rich person, he will turn his back on you.
  • The Corrupter: Under his influence, Lincoln becomes a Rich Jerk.
  • Evil Counterpart: The Fat Bastard to Pop-Pop/Albert's Big Fun. They're both chubby elders. But while Pop-Pop enjoys others' company unconditionally, Tetherby only wants to be around people who have a very high status.
  • Evil Old Folks: An elderly man who dislikes anyone below his status.
  • Fair-Weather Friend: He'll gladly be your friend and invite you to do cool activities... as long as you have a limo.
  • Fan Disservice: We actually get to see the old man in his swim trunks (speedos?)...
  • Fat Bastard: He's quite round and not a very pleasant person.
  • Hate Sink: Besides his punishment, there is nothing remotely likeable about Tetherby. He befriends Lincoln only because he was in a limo, convinces him to abandon his sisters in exchange for a look at the good life and when Lincoln shows up at his party without a limo, Tetherby responds by having his servants throw him off his property, with no regards to his well being. When Lincoln convinces Kirby to give him and his sisters another ride in the limo, Tetherby shows up out of nowhere and tries to make him abandon his sisters again, which Lincoln wisely refuses to do this time.
  • Jerkass: He scorns everyone who's not as rich as him. He also throws Lincoln (an eleven-year old kid) out of his house, forcing him to fend for himself in an unfamiliar and dangerous part of town in the dark, with apparently no way to contact his family.
  • Rich Bastard: He's rich and contemptuous towards those he deems as being beneath him.

    Sue 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/sue_64.png
Voiced by: Veronica Cartwright
The head nurse at the Sunset Canyon Retirement Home.
  • Battleaxe Nurse: She has the looks and traits to prove it.
  • Control Freak: She runs Sunset Canyon with an iron fist, imposing harsh rules on the seniors, until they force her to let them do what they want.
  • Disproportionate Retribution: She kicks out seniors if they disobey the curfew.
  • Establishing Character Moment: The first thing she's shown doing is kicking out a resident for missing curfew.
  • Expy: Of Nurse Ratched.
  • Hate Sink: While Sue is just doing her job in making sure the elders stay safe, the smug and obnoxious way she goes about it keeps the audience from taking her side.
  • Jerkass: She's not one of the most pleasant people out there.
  • Kick the Dog: As mentioned, she kicks anyone out should they fail to follow her rules.
  • The Killjoy: She quickly puts a stop to whatever fun Albert and Lincoln are having.
  • Safety Freak: Sue's rules prevent the seniors in her care from having any fun. She even makes Lincoln use nose plugs and a pool noodle at the Sunset Canyon pool, even though he's not a senior.

    Exterminator 
Voiced by: Fred Tatasciore
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/exterminator.jpg
An exterminator who tried to kill Frank/Frances in "Along Came a Sister".
  • Eccentric Exterminator: He loves killing bugs just a little too much.
  • Everyone Calls Him "Barkeep": He's only referred to as "the exterminator".
  • Fat Bastard: Downplayed. Trying to kill Frank was only doing his job, but he is rude to the kids, calling them "spider huggers". He's also quite fat.
  • Hate Sink: While he's not exactly a villain, and is presumably just doing his job, his cruelty to insects and lack of likable qualities make it clear the audience isn’t supposed to like him.
  • Ignored Aesop: At the end of "Along Came a Sister", he lies about Leni's inspirational speech having changed his worldview.
  • Punch-Clock Villain: He's a jerk for sure, but he's only doing his job. However, it's implied that he seems to take great sadistic pleasure in doing said job, as his Establishing Character Moment is laughing after killing two harmless little caterpillars who were in the street.
  • Vile Villain, Saccharine Show: While he's a minor antagonist who only appears in one episode, he is easily one of the darkest antagonists in an otherwise lighthearted comedy show.

    Michelle and Doug 
Michelle voiced by: Rachel Butera
Doug Voiced by: Doug Rockwell
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/loud_house_doug_michelle.png
The producers of America's Next Hitmaker.
  • Big Bad Duumvirate: They always work together and they are both equally meddlesome and pushy.
  • Bitch in Sheep's Clothing: At first, they seem like decent folk. As of Act II...
  • Executive Meddling: In-universe example. They try to completely change Luna's image from a rocker girl to a pop star just because pop music is more popular.
  • Hate Sink: While it is unclear who is the more unlikable of the two, both of them are as every bit as slimy, meddlesome, and shallow as one can assume executives of the music industry to be.
  • Jerkass: They are both dishonest, pushy, and manipulative.
  • Token Evil Teammate: They're the only celebrities in the show that are portrayed as despicable people.

    Jeff and Carly Miller 
Jeff Voiced by: John DiMaggio
Carly Voiced by: Annie Sertich
The Louds' newest neighbors... who also turn out to be cherry-hating spies working for the evil organization S.U.S.P.E.N.S.E. (Secret Underground Society of Peach Entrepreneurs Nixing Sour Exports) who aim to destroy all the cherries in Royal Woods.
  • Bitch in Sheep's Clothing: They might seem like nice people at first, but they're revealed to be spies working for the evil organization S.U.S.P.E.N.S.E.
  • Breaking Old Trends: In a show where most of the "villains" are nothing more than bullies or jerks, they stand out as being the first antagonists in the show to be legitimately evil.
  • Does Not Like Spam: Exaggerated. They do NOT like cherries, to the point they want to destroy them altogether.
  • Evil All Along: As it turns out, Lincoln was right about them being evil all along.
  • Evil Counterpart: They both resemble a slightly younger versions of Lynn Sr. and Rita. However, while Lynn Sr. and Rita are good parents (occasional immaturity and incompetence aside), Jeff and Carly are evil and devious enough to try and cripple the economy of an innocent town.

    Dr. Carol Linnaeus 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/ded6ncd_72cc235f_4b6f_4835_917b_83a9ad50b341.jpg
Voiced by: Janet Varney
A high-ranking scientist at Incognito Labs, who takes an interest in Flip for his biological oddities.
  • Bitch in Sheep's Clothing: She initially presents herself as an affable woman who offers to pay Flip for agreeing to let her study him, but her true colors are shown not long after, when Lisa spies on her cruelly experimenting on Flip.
  • Evil Counterpart: To Lisa. They are both highly, intelligent scientists who tend to do dangerous experiments. The only difference is that Lisa still has compassion for other living beings while Carol risks the health and safety of her subjects without compunction.
  • For Science!: She intends to launch Flip into space without a spacesuit and doesn't care whether he gets killed in the attempt.
  • Four Eyes, Zero Soul: She wears square-rimmed glasses and is nothing but heartless.
  • Hate Sink: Just look at the other tropes describing her.
  • Knight of Cerebus: Unlike most of the other antagonists on the show, Dr. Linnaeus has next to nothing in terms of comedic traits.
  • Lack of Empathy: She’s cold and uncaring toward the well-being of others.
  • Named After Somebody Famous: She’s named after Swedish scientist Carl Linnaeus.
  • Shadow Archetype: She's what Lisa could become if she let her love of science overtake her moral compass.
  • Uncertain Doom: It's unclear what happened to her after she was launched into space.
  • Villain of the Week: The main antagonist of "Blinded by Science".
  • What Measure Is a Non-Human?: Despite Flip being a fully sentient (if abnormal) human being, it’s clear that she views him as little more than a lab rat to experiment on.

    Vic Mc Gillicuddy 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/img_9378.png
Voiced by: JP Karliak
Mayor Davis' former campaign manager.
  • The Corruptor: Vic acts as one towards Mayor Davis as he tries to get her to say horrible things about Leni as an attempt to keep her status as Mayor.
  • Even Evil Has Loved Ones: He’s very close to his pet Gila Monster, Gilly.
  • Four Eyes, Zero Soul: He wears a pair of glasses and intentionally causes trouble for others.
  • Greed:
    • In “High Crimes”, Vic pulls multiple sabotages at the Sunset Canyon Retirement Home as a cheap attempt to gain the helium underneath it.
    • In “Doom Service”, he runs a resort where all the good quality treatments require very high prices as an attempt to gain more money.
  • Hate Sink: Seeing that he enjoys bullying others, intentionally causes trouble, and pulls greedy scams, it's no contest that Vic is not meant to be liked at all.
  • Those Two Guys: Almost never seen without Gilly.

    Joyce Crandall 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/whoareyouagain.png
The Undersecretary of Water Leisure of Michigan and main antagonist of "Save Royal Woods!"
  • 0% Approval Rating: It goes without saying that her plans for Royal Woods don't make her a popular figure among the locals.
  • Ambition Is Evil: What does she hope to gain from flooding Royal Woods? Getting promoted to Oversecretary.
  • Contrasting Sequel Antagonist: Can be seen as this to Morag from The Loud House Movie. Both are the female Big Bads of special episodes (Morag for the movie, Joyce for a half-hour special), but also near-complete opposites.
    • Morag is a slightly dark-skinned Scottish royal housekeeper with dark, slightly graying hair. Joyce is a pale-skinned American politician with red hair.
    • Whereas Morag used a fire-breathing dragon in an attempt to wreck and drive everyone away from Loch Loud, Joyce seeks to bust a dam and flood Royal Woods to create a sixth Great Lake.
    • While Morag kept her plans secret until she was caught in a lie the second she got what she wanted, Joyce is completely unsubtle about what she wants to do and how callous she was about it long before she got around to it.
    • Morag wanted to forcibly overthrow Lincoln and become Duchess of Loch Loud for peace and quiet, while Joyce carried out her scheme in hope that she would attain her ambition of getting a legal promotion within Michigan's state government.
    • Morag's scheme revolved entirely around the Loud family. Joyce, on the other hand, didn't have anything to do with the Louds specifically, only affecting them as a side effect to her intentions.
  • Evil Is Hammy: She spares no expense in showmanship while announcing her plans to flood Royal Woods.
  • Even Evil Has Loved Ones: She claims that she named Lake Gladys after her mother as a birthday present.
  • Laser-Guided Karma: Her desperate efforts to destroy Royal Woods get broadcasted by Katherine Mulligan which leads to her getting fired by her boss.
  • Sinister Schnoz: She's got a pointy, upturned nose.
  • Villain of the Week: The main antagonist of "Save Royal Woods!"
  • Villain Song: "Already Forgot About You" is about how she views Royal Woods as not special unlike other Great Lakes cities and how she wants to destroy it in favor of Lake Gladys.

    Guy Grazer 
A Caustic Critic and a celebrity chef who runs a series of shows.
  • Ascended Extra: First made a cameo appearance in "Present Tense", then became the main antagonist of "Dine and Bash" and "Forks and Knives Out".
  • Caustic Critic: He's introduced roasting a female chef student about her and her sauce being weak. And it only gets worse from here.
  • Large Ham: As befits a Gordon Ramsay expy.
  • Let's You and Him Fight: The primary point of his "Kitchen Combat" show. He deliberately seeks to invoke this when Lincoln, Lynn Sr., Ronnie Anne, and Rosa compete on the show, outright trying to get them to be antagonistic to each other.
  • No Celebrities Were Harmed: Has the personality of Gordon Ramsay and the looks of Guy Fieri.
  • Pet the Dog: In "Dine and Bash", he comes across as rather aggressive, given that he tosses a menu that knocks down his camera man (requiring the boom operator to stand in), and assaults Todd with his survey papers just for trying to distract him by asking him to take a survey. Surprisingly, despite all of this, his review of Lynn's Table was positive, praising the Loud children for their ability to run the restaurant and plans to return when Lynn Sr. is actually available.
  • Took a Level in Jerkass: While he has warmed up to Lynn Sr.'s cooking in "Dine and Bash", he has gotten even worse in "Forks and Knives Out", where he is willing to pit the Louds and Casagrandes against each other for the sake of entertainment.

Notable One-Episode Characters

    Hugh 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/hugh_9.png
Voiced by: (English) Matt Kirsten
Voiced by: (Italian) Gianandrea Muià

A British community college student who Lincoln hires as his tutor. He ends up getting the unwanted attention of nearly all of Lincoln's sisters... and dad.


  • Anachronism Stew: He rides a penny farthing bicycle.
  • Camp Straight: He wears pink, is very mindful of his appearance, but is wigged out by the advances of the Loud girls... And their father.
  • Chick Magnet: Catches the eyes of all of the Loud girls (except Lily).
  • Clueless Chick-Magnet: Subverted. At first he has no idea the Loud Girls are interested in him but that quickly changes, to his embarrassment.
  • Cool Teacher: Kind, charming, attractive and easily relates to Lincoln.
  • Even the Guys Want Him: Lynn Sr. also tries to win him over.
  • I Am Very British: He even throws in a "pip-pip, cheerio" .
  • Mr. Fanservice: The girls fall for him for a reason after all. He is a good-looking guy and at one point, Lisa rolls up his shirt to reveal that he has a pretty nice six-pack.
  • Nice Guy: His reaction at most to the Loud Girls and Lynn Sr. stalking him is nervousness and he brushes it off at first. He also does his best to teach Lincoln and earnestly compliments him when he finds out Lincoln already knows the material quite well.
  • Vague Age: His age could be anywhere from 17 to his mid 20's. All we're given is he goes to the local community college.

    Ms. DiMartino 
Voiced by: Sirena Irwin
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/dimartino.PNG
A substitute teacher who causes every male who looks at her to completely lose focus and concentration, resulting in Lincoln getting an F (and a frowny face) on multiple tests, as well as falling into a trash can and colliding with a goalpost.
  • Ambiguously Brown: While she has tan skin and a vaguely Hispanic surname, it's unclear whether she's supposed to be a Latina or not. Complicating things is that "DiMartino" is of Italian origin.
  • Distracted by the Sexy: Invokes this in her male students.
  • Dude Magnet: She accidentally swoons the whole male student body of the school, including Lincoln and Clyde.
  • Hot Teacher: "Smokin'", according to Luna.
  • Informed Attractiveness: She’s described as “smokin’”, and while she’s certainly not bad-looking, she doesn’t really look any better than most of the other adult women on the show.
  • Nice Girl: She allowed Lincoln to retake the quiz and seems to be a pretty polite woman who cares about her students in general.

A cherry farmer that the Loud family runs into during their vacation trip.
  • Cool Old Guy: He is laid-back, friendly farmer who gets along with the Loud family, is a spokesperson for a brand of cherries that Lynn Sr. likes using and he even offers them to stay in his hotel room when they find out that the reservation for their room expired.
  • Foil: While the two have never crossed paths, Jerry Kling can be considered this to Lord Tetherby. Lord Tetherby is a toxic and unpleasant man who is blatant about his wealth and looks down on anyone and anything he considers to be beneath him. Contrast that with Jerry Kling, who at first comes off as an ordinary cherry farmer, but turns out to be not only Secretly Wealthy, but also nothing short of generous to the middle-class Louds.
  • Nice Guy: When the Loud family helps him with his flat tire, he thanks them by giving them some of his cherries. Then at the end of the episode, he offers them to stay in his hotel room after they find out their own room has been taken by someone else.
  • Punny Name: His name, Jerry King, is a pun of Cherry King, a brand of cherries that he is a spokesperson for.
  • Uncle Pennybags: The end of the episode "Tripped!" reveals that he is a spokesperson for a popular brand of cherries and rich enough to reserve the entire top floor of a hotel. Despite that, he is nothing but nice and generous to the Louds.

The creator of Mr. Coconuts.
  • Anti-Villain: While he does steal Mr. Coconuts and tries to prevent the Louds from recovering him, he only did it so he could be reunited with what he sees as his son.
  • Passing the Torch: He's a retired puppet-maker and performer and hands Mr. Coconuts back to Luan, telling her to make sure Mr. Coconuts can share his talents with the world.
