The Casagrandes is an American animated comedy series that is a spinoff of The Loud House. It debuted on October 14, 2019 and was developed by Michael Rubiner based on characters by Chris Savino. The series has been renewed for a second and third (also the last) season.
Summary
Ronnie Anne, her older brother Bobby, and their mother Maria, having moved to Great Lakes City, now live with their extended family, the Casagrandes. Since her dreams finally came true, Ronnie Anne meets new friends like Sid Chang, and discovers more about the city.
Buenas Cualidades (Good Qualities)
- Amazing animation style; just like with The Loud House, it improved the cartoony, newspaper comic-esque style really nicely, as it also resembles as a 2000s-esque cartoon like the main show.
- Speaking of The Loud House, the titular house had a cameo at the end of “Croaked”.
- The characters originally from The Loud House (such as Ronnie Anne Santiago, the protagonist) are still lovable, and the new characters are great as well.
- Catchy theme song that's peppered with some Spanish phrases and words.
- The title cards are amazing, even they have the same transition as The Loud House, are very creative, as they now have different fonts for each episode.
- Manages to build on top of existing continuity by introducing new characters.
- Ronnie Anne and Sid's friendship is very heartwarming as they have a good chemistry together and a good dynamic.
- A few characters from The Loud House appear in certain episodes, further uniting the two series.
- Lincoln appears in “The Horror-Scope”, “An Udder Mess”, and "'Prankiversery".
- Lori appears in “Flee Market”, “This Bird Has Flown” and “Tee'd Off”
- Great depictions of Mexican-American culture.
- Excellent writing.
- C.J. is a great, well-written portrayal of down syndrome.
- Witty humor, jokes, and slapstick.
- Top-notch voice acting, with well-known names such as Melissa Joan Hart, Ken Jeong, Eugenio Derbez, Sonia Manzano, George Lopez, and Daniel Dae Kim.
- While The Loud House has gone downhill and eventually jumped the shark as of season 4, this show has thankfully not that much.
- There are a number of good/decent episodes, such as:
- "Walk Don't Run"
- "Arrr in the Family"
- "Operation Dad"
- "V.I.P.eeved"
- "Team Effort"
- "Guess Who's Shopping for Dinner?"
- "New Roomie"
- "Guilt Trip"
- "Meal Ticket"
- "A Very Casagrandes Christmas" (an awesome christmas episode)
- "An Udder Mess"
- "Karate Chops"
- "Saving Face"
- "Battle of the Grandpas"
- "Zoo-mergemcy"
- "Teacher's Fret"
- "Spin-Off"
- "Operation Popstar"
- "Curse of the Candy Goblin"
Malas Cualidades (Bad Qualities)
- It shares the same flaws from The Loud House such as:
- Toilet humor and gross-out jokes in several episodes.
- A lot of rehashed episode plots.
- Like The Loud House especially in season 4-6, the show has been getting more unrealistic and cartoon-ish, almost every episode has had a cartoony element such as:
- A chicken ghost in “Bad Cluck”
- The fridge coming to life in “Guilt Trip”
- The electronic devices and one of Carl's toys coming to life in “I, Breakfast Bot”.
- A rat being the tooth fairy in “Tooth Or Consequences”
- Picosito rubbing Abuelo's head in order to get good luck and having a pair of underpants with jalapeño peppers on it that brings him good luck in the Season 3 premiere “Bend It Like Abuelo“
- The book making the ancestors of the Chang family come to life and Adelaine trying to stop them in “Bunstoppable“.
- A candy goblin in the episode “Curse of the Candy Goblin“
- Thankfully, there are not a lot of overly cartoonish elements as a plot unlike The Loud House as of Season 5, though it has became more frequent as of Season 3 making the show go downhill, while not "jumping the shark" completely, yet.
- But don't give us started about "The Casagrandes Movie".
- Even this show has a few bad or mediocre episodes such as:
- "This Bird Has Flown" (arguably the worst episode of the show)
- "Gossipy Girl"
- "Señor Class"
- "Blunder Party"
- "I, Breakfast Bot"
- "Karate Chops"
- "Matters of the Kart"
- "Going Overboard" was a pretty mediocre way to start the series.
- There are also a few boring episodes, but thankfully, not too many.
- Some jokes can get old very quickly.
- Some members of the Casagrande family can be a bit annoying.
- The family’s pet parrot, Sergio, is unlikable and constantly mistreats the family, especially towards Bobby. He is also shoehorned into scenes, making him the creator's pet.
- Carl(ino) can be annoying and an overused character due to many episodes centered on him.
- Tía Frida is a huge crybaby, and the worst mother who cries over the littlest things.
- While not a bad character, Ronnie Anne feels too much like a female Lincoln in this series, while in the original show she seemed to have her own character identity.
- Similar to other modern nick shows, it tries very hard at being hip and relevant at dead/dying trends such as Bobby dabbing in the episode “Stress Test”, and Tía Frida dabbing and flossing in the episode “Copy Can't” and Ronnie Anne dabbing in the title card of the same episode.
- There are also cameos of various K-Pop band in certain episodes.
Trivia
- As Chris Savino, the person who created The Loud House was fired on October 19, 2017 due to sexual harassment, he did not work on this show.
