OK, so it's this Nickelodeon show about a family with the last name Loud (hence the title).

The family consists of the parents Rita and Lynn Sr. and their eleven kids:

Lori (17, bossy, talks on the phone a lot, head-over-heels for her boyfriend Bobby, says, "literally" a lot)
Leni (16, dopey but very kind, into fashion)
Luna (15, a rocker)
Luan (14, likes to tell jokes and pull pranks)
Lynn Jr. (13, loves sports, a bit boorish, likes spicy food, superstitious)
Lincoln (11, the only boy, likes to make plans, play video games, and read comics in his underwear)
Lucy (eight, is a goth)
Lana (six, likes animals, fixing things, and getting dirty)
Lola (also six; she's Lana's twin, likes tea parties, beauty pageants, and princesses, a bit of a brat)
Lisa (four, a child prodigy, does experiments)
and Lily (one, says, "poo-poo" a lot)

It's mainly a wacky slice-of-life comedy. The siblings do argue, but they do love each other and most episodes have happy endings save for a few, and even then, the ending is not *too* bad and it's only something like "Lincoln didn't get to see the end of his TV show".

In badfic, people often tend to either ignore the flaws of the characters (usually Lincoln, Luna, Leni, and Lucy get this treatment and it happens so often with Lincoln that it's gotten the nickname "St. Lincoln") or exaggerate the flaws and ignore the virtues (typically with Lynn Jr., Lori, Lola, Luan, and the parents).

There is also a shocking amount of incest fanfiction (so shockingly common that it's gotten the nickname "Loudcest") and smut about the kids (!!).

Another trend of 'Loud House' badfic is trying to rewrite the infamous episode "No Such Luck" (in which the family, in a fit of canon OOC-ness, throws Lincoln out of the house for being "bad luck") and end up just making the characters even more OOC and/or make Lincoln die or run away.

And that's about it. Honestly, I would very much *like* to get permission, but it seems so hard.
