“Friended! (With The Casagrandes)” - Episode Review
Here we are, the opener of season 4! And in a change of pace, the Louds themselves are not the spotlight. How did the latest episode featuring Ronnie Anne and her extended family fare? Let’s take a look..
First of all, the intro.. a shorted traditional intro then Ronnie Anne takes over..a nice way to show this episode is different than the rest. The intro was fun with each member of the Casagrandes highlighted in a different color. Will be interesting to see if the remainder of the opening arc uses this.
The title card was different as well..maybe a hint at what the rest of the arc episodes cards will look like (as well as the spinoff)
Anyways, on with the episode itself..
Aww, Ronnie Anne looks so cute sleeping like that..until Lalo wakes her up...hehe. Great to see her family at breakfast. Also we find out the Rosa is the building manager which is a nice touch. Was fun to see Ronnie Anne’s interactions with her family (like CJ with his hammer/screwdriver, her mom Maria with her talking about her nursing job which gets stopped by Carlota before she can go into too much detail...hehe.. then Bobby getting ready for his job at the Mercado and having to rush out the door along with Carl). I loved that RA was on top of everything, making sure things were all set with the family before heading out.
Loved the scene with her talking to Lincoln over the phone, especially her seeing a guy with white hair and mistaking him for Lincoln and then Lincoln almost getting trampled by his sisters. Nice way to add him into the episode.
Sid’s introduction was so fun. Got a good laugh out of her trying (and failing) perform a skating trick. Not to mention a nice save by RA. Just love Sid’s enthusiasm..she is gonna be such a fun character.
Glad that we got to find out about RA and Bobby’s dad and that she’s ok with the whole situation. Not to mention our first look at Sid’s family.
I liked the transitions in this episode with the big city shots..definitely a nice touch.
Loved the excitement that the two had when they found out they may become neighbors in the apartment.
I loved that Bobby, Carlota, Carl and CJ wanted the new family to move in as well. And bobby was acting sweet as always. The plan was so very fun. I loved how everybody worked together to stop the other potential tenants and kept Rosa busy. Carl’s antics in particular were my favorite, not to mention RA and Carlota trying to hide from Carl Sr and Carlitos in the library. Everything seems to be going well..until we find out about one more potential tenant. Looks like it’s time for plan b.
The second plan is especially fun. Sid and her bird calls were especially fun..hehe. Was so cute seeing Sid get excited over her potential new home..especially finding out her bedroom could be right above Ronnie Anne’s. I got a good laugh out of Carlota and Carl each distracting Rosa in their own way..poor Carl..hehe..taking one for the team. Ronnie Anne showing off the ‘ruined’ apartment was pretty fun too, especially that Lincoln like grin at the end.
I loved the Ronnie Anne took responsibility when the building owner was going to fire Rosa. Was very mature of her. Was sweet seeing her fix it (with a little help from Sergio). I thought it was sweet that the building owner let Sid’s family have the apartment. So glad we’ll be seeing more of her and her family.
This episode was just so much fun. Ronnie Anne is really growing on me. I loved her interactions with her family and the plan was especially fun. I just adored Sid..her enthusiasm is just so sweet and I love how her and Ronnie Anne get along. If this is how this episode went, I have high hopes for not only the rest of the opening arc but also the spinoff series as well. :) I think this is my favorite episode featuring this family so far. A wonderful way to start the new season.
Rating: 98 out of 100
Season 4 is off to a great start. Next up is the 2nd (of 5) episodes in the opening arc ‘No Show’ on June 10th. How will that and the remaining episodes in the arc fare? Tune in next time to find out and of course, keep an eye on this page for more Loud House related content (including my full season 3 rankings which will be posted sometime between now and the next episode). Until next time, stay Loud!

Let’s Talk #TheLoudHouse: #LosCasagrandes
This Monday, Nickelodeon will premiere a Thanksgiving special that will also serve as an early crossover between The Loud House and its upcoming spinoff Los Casagrandes. Prior to the special, the titular Casagrande family has occasionally shown up on The Loud House.
For my thoughts on the Casagrandes, feel free to keep reading. There will be spoilers.
I brought up the spinoff a while ago, but did not go that much into the characters or their past appearances on the show.
When Los Casagrandes (the current tentative title) premieres next year on Nickelodeon, it will become the network’s fifth overall Nicktoon to star Hispanic characters after Dora The Explorer, Go Diego Go!, El Tigre: The Adventures of Manny Rivera, and Planet Sheen.
The spinoff will feature the adventures of the combined Casagrande and Santiago families living together under one roof.
While the Louds are an extreme nuclear family, the Casagrandes are a multi-generational family. They consist not only of a traditional nuclear family but also grandparents, an aunt, and cousins. It also continues the predecessor’s naming trend where most of the characters have names starting with a certain letter, in this spinoff’s case the letter C.
Most of the characters share certain traits with other past characters.
Carlitos is basically a slightly older Lily.
Carlota is obsessed with fashion like Leni.
Carl has similar feelings for Lori like Clyde.
Maria Santiago is a medical assistant like Rita.
Carlos is an intellectual like Lisa.
Rosa is just as obsessed with cooking as Lynn Sr.
Hector runs a convenience store like Flip.
Besides Bobby and Ronnie Anne, who are still the same characters they have always been, the only character that does not share any traits with other characters is Carlos Jr, AKA CJ.
CJ is the family’s standout character. Unlike other characters on The Loud House, he has Down Syndrome. Whenever he appears, the show never feels the need to bring up his disability and the characters treat him as if he was any other person. It is a great message from the show that tells viewers to not treat anyone with a disability differently from others.
Within the show, the family has appeared three times throughout the second and third seasons.
The Loudest Mission - Relative Chaos (Season 2): The original backdoor pilot that introduced the characters and the series’ second half-hour special. In the episode, Ronnie Anne finds out that her mother is moving her and Bobby away from Royal Woods. She brings in Lincoln and Lori to help change their minds.
City Slickers (Season 3): While visiting the big city, Lincoln wonders why Ronnie Anne wants to hide her past from her new friends. Meanwhile, Lori is surprised by the city.
The Spies Who Loved Me (Season 3): The Casagrandes worry about Ronnie Anne being out alone in the city. Unlike the first two episodes, Lincoln only appeared briefly and Lori did not appear at all, giving more screen time for the family.
The episodes have transitioned the characters from relying on the Loud siblings’ involvement to being able to present a story on their own.
They have also shown up in the later graphic novels, presenting the spinoff’s potential recurring elements such as Carl getting embarrassed by his mom and CJ’s imagination.
Up until now, Lincoln and Lori have been the only Loud family members to meet the Casagrandes due to his friendship with Ronnie Anne and her relationship with Bobby.
The Thanksgiving special will be the first time that the two families will properly meet one another. Based on the commercial, which also promotes the show’s first musical episode, it will involve the show’s traditional chaos.
It could open the door for more crossovers between the characters and not just rely on either Lincoln or Lori to justify having a story.
“The Loudest Thanksgiving” will premiere this Monday night on Nickelodeon. The spinoff will premiere sometime in 2019.
Until next time, thank you for reading!
