Over time, I've grown tired of the Loud House for its cliche plotlines and jerk characters. If you're in the same position as me, you may find that this little show on Disney+ in the USA is a massive improvement. It's the same premise pretty much (a bunch of siblings in one household) but much more creative. Let's break it down:
Animation and Art Style: The animation is very fluid, and each of the 13 main pups has a unique design. It also has a nice color palette. My only complaint is that for the background pups, the same design is copy-pasted.
Writing: This is the area that the show achieves in the most, and excels over The Cliche House. The writing is smart, and the plots are creative and don't get recycled. The show also seeds in a story arc as the episodes go on, and it all culminates in the epic season 1 finale, The De Vil Wears Puppies.
Characters: The characters are well-written and enjoyable. Dylan and Dolly have a nice back-and-forth dynamic with each other and really do care about each other. All of the pups has their own unique personality, and hopefully the other pups outside of the main 13 will get to shine in season 2. My favorite character is Deepak, the meditator pup who's adorable. The show also had a nice redemption arc for Hunter De Vil, the great nephew of Cruella from the 1961 movie.
Music: The show's theme song and credits song are both very catchy and fit the tone of the show well, but I think they should change it for the more serious episodes, because it's strange to see Cruella about to kill the pups and then it cuts to the upbeat "It's a dog's life, and we love it like that". However, I like that they incorporate Cruella's song into her scenes, such as her ringtone.
Enjoyment: The show started off good, and it gets even better later on. The show is both fun to watch and thought-provoking. I recommend it.
