Chandler McCann

Chandler McCann is a minor recurring antagonist in the 1st-4th season and the main antagonist in 5th-present season of The Loud House. He is Lincoln's arch-enemy and a former elementary school student, turned middle school student and school bully.

Why He's (Intentionally?) A Popular Middle School Bully

 * 1) He is shown to take advantage of other kids. In his first episode, "The Waiting Game", Chandler tricks Lincoln into taking advantage of Lori Loud (seasons 1b-present)|Lori]]'s generosity by forcing him to get free things from her, making Lincoln his slave.
 * 2) The only reason he invited Lincoln and Clyde to his sewage party was not that he considered them friends, but because of the free things, Lincoln gave him.
 * 3) *He also got away with his actions at the end.
 * 4) Despite becoming friends with Lincoln and Clyde at the end of the episode "Jeers for Fears", he goes back to his bullying ways with no explanation in the season 5 premiere "Schooled!". This made his character development pointless.
 * 5) He qualifies as an alpha bastard because he's popular at his schools for throwing wild birthday parties and uses Lincoln and Clyde to get what he wants and acts ungrateful to them.
 * 6) In "Zack Attack" he only came to Zack's party just to make fun of him for believing in aliens. Which is really one-dimensional.
 * 7) In an LoL podcast, Chandler takes a table that was meant for Lincoln and Clyde, and later gets to spin a wheel for pizza instead of them.
 * 8) In "Wheel and Deal", he competed in a race against Lincoln and Lana, but he only cared about winning the race and not about meeting Bobbie Fletcher.
 * 9) He was at his absolute worst  in "Schooled!". He treated Lincoln horribly, kicked him from behind, cruelly laughing at his misery, and make his desk fall apart for no reason.
 * 10) *In "Season's Cheatings", he is inserted in and takes advantage of Lincoln where he makes him get more money, and he gets the Rip Hardcore backpack that he wanted. Lincoln was now heartbroken and ends up missing out on Christmas because of him. Lily then decides to give Lincoln a rolled-up paper as his new gift to make it up to him for not getting his Rip Hardcore backpack, revealing it to be a finger-painting she made of herself giving Lincoln his backpack.
 * 11) In "Broadcast Blues", he joined the Action News Team and made things worse for them just because the team needed new equipment for their Action News show, by rudely slamming books off of students' hands, and even making fun of a kid who got dumped because of the way he walks in his Bro in the Know segment.
 * 12) *In that same episode, it's also shown that he sold stuff from his dad's sewage plant to get the money for the equipment he offered the team and doesn't want anyone knowing, implying that he has little to no respect for his family.
 * 13) *In "The Taunting Hour", he uses his giant Chandler cardboard head to prevent Lincoln from seeing Lynn's soccer game and successfully making him miss out on her whole game. In the end, it is shown three times in flashbacks that he always ruins Lincoln's life.
 * 14) *In "Musical Chairs", he causes distractions for Lincoln like kicking his seat while Mr. Bolhofner is teaching, to the point he wanted to change his seat. He even goes as far as almost using hot sauce which melted away a part of a nearby desk, showing just how cruel and wrong that is.
 * 15) He was mean and nasty which acts evil in the series which he is Lincoln's arch-enemy.
 * 16) *He's also a villainous jerk, he enjoys bullying Lincoln and his friends by taking advantage of them. He is skilled at plotting and scheming to ruin Lincoln's life.
 * 17) He was a normal jerk through the first season to fourth season, but then he becomes a true villain and goes beyond starting in the fifth season.

Redeeming Qualities

 * 1) He at least briefly made friends with Lincoln and Clyde in "Jeers for Feers".
 * 2) Passable and attractive character design.
 * 3) He does gets his comeuppance in most of his appearances and centered episodes like "Schooled!" where he gets dragged by Liam's new pet moose and attacked off-screen.
 * 4) Daniel Divenere does a wonderful job at voicing him.
 * 5) At times, he's called "Stinky Chandler" by Lincoln who continually tries to destroy his life.
 * 6) He got an award for "Best Detention Getter" in "How the Best Was Won", which he rightfully deserved for his actions.
 * 7) He is most likely meant to be hated.
 * 8) Depending on your view, similar to Lincoln improving himself in Season 5 before (depending on your view) eventually returning back to his original persona and Leni improving herself in Season 6 (depending on your view), he has became a bit likable in Season 6.
 * 9) He can be a bit funny at times.
