Can you imagine Big Bro Linc as Indiana Jones?
In terms of allied characters, Albert (The Loud siblings' grandfather) as Sallah, Leni as Marion Ravenwood, Lori as Wilhelmina Scott, Shawn as Short Round and Lina as Helena Shaw.
In terms of antagonist characters, Vic McGilligudy as Mola Ram, Morag as Irina Spalko and Mr. Bolhofner as Jürgen Voller.
emmm nop.

Let's Talk #TheLoudHouse: Season 5 Final Thoughts
After starting off in late 2020, Season 5 of The Loud House has finally come to an end.
It was a season full of changes to the show's status quo, albeit not to the extent most fans may have wanted to see. Despite that, it was overall good.
For my final thoughts on Season 5, feel free to keep reading. There will be spoilers.
Prior to the season, I saw how several fans were eager to see what impending changes would take place. Some went as far as drawing up possible new looks for the characters. I wrote an entire post about what could happen and even some predictions.
A few of them would actually occur. Leni now being in charge was only the focus of a single episode. Lily did get a redesign and now talked albeit not in full sentences. As for everyone else, there were no redesigns.
In that same post, I theorized how it could wind up like Rugrats, where the status quo occasionally changed but the main characters stayed the same. It went both ways, with the siblings going up a grade but not much else. The Loud House Movie also didn't do much with the status quo, only establishing the family's Scottish ancestry.
For some, this season focused far too much on Lincoln's middle school antics. It only seems that way since he showed up in nearly every single episode, mostly in a supporting role. There were a lot of episodes focusing on his friends, especially Stella and Clyde. Even Chandler got a couple of episodes.
Lori's departure for Fairway University turned her into a recurring character who only showed up a few times. She did get a couple of episodes to herself, such as one where she felt left out of the family after moving away.
Lily received the least amount of attention after "Schooled!" She did play a major role in a few episodes, but her involvement was limited to being a supporting role up until the penultimate episode "Appetite For Destruction". At least said episode defied expectations by featuring an older Lily as a rebel with a mostly shaved head, aside from a tuft of hair.
This was the first season Ronnie Anne did not appear in any form or another. Her nonappearance made some sense, as The Casagrandes has yet to explicitly state if she and Bobby also moved up a grade. A downside of this disconnect was how it limited crossovers between the shows to the spin-off and only with either Lincoln or Lori. With the spinoff's cancelation, there is the possibility of seeing some actual crossovers in the future.
Nearly every single character got an episode for themselves, some of sharing it with at least one of the Loud siblings. Even Mr. Grouse had a couple of episodes, including one where he (briefly) moved away.
This season also included two film premieres: The Loud House Movie and the live action A Loud House Christmas. The former was an OK film that worked perfectly fine for the show, even if some fans hated the fantastical elements or cliché plot. It should be noted that the film is based on a show that has featured robots built by a 4 year old, a trash monster, and explosions.
The latter film was a decent adaptation of the show into live action and far better than past (and future) adaptations of The Fairly OddParents. It also served as the unofficial debut for Jahzir Bruno as Clyde, who will take over the role from Andre Robinson in Season 6.
When it comes to the season's best and worst episodes, there were thankfully more of the former than the latter.
Camped!: This half-hour episode had the whole family going camping in a likely rejected (but still fun) premise for The Loud House Movie. It also introduced Lynn Sr's dad Leonard.
In The Mick of Time: It followed up on a couple of episodes from Season 1 and highlighted Luna and Sam's relationship.
Rumor Has It: Not only did it reveal Lincoln's middle name to be Albert, his grandfather's name, but also resolved his seasonal conflict with Mr. Bolhofner.
Training Day: One of two Lana-centric episodes, the other being "Animal House", which had her dealing with Stella's pet rabbit. It was also a rare episode where Stella appeared yet had nothing to do with Lincoln.
Appetite for Destruction: The season's penultimate episode focused on Lily in a story similar to the Season 2 episode "Future Tense" by how Rita and Lynn worry about her attitude.
As for the bad ones...
Ghosted!: The season's Halloween special was wasted on a ghost story that dragged down Lori while focusing a bit too much on her siblings hanging around the university.
A Flipmas Carol: It expanded upon Flip with an OK parody of A Christmas Carol but could have been better presented within a half-hour instead of a quarter-hour.
Friday Night Fights: It wasted a potential story with Lynn and Lisa in a mostly forgettable one about sports analytics.
Undercover Mom: A great premise that in execution came off as rushed, too short, and underwhelming.
Flying Solo: Out of all the middle school episodes, this was the weakest by how it felt more like fanfiction for a cliché high school show.
Overall, Season 5 was full of both major and subtle changes. While not to the extent that fans may have wanted, the episodes were for the most part still fun and entertaining. If there were any missed opportunities, it would have been more episodes about Leni, Lily, and Lynn Sr.
Season 6 will bring a couple of changes behind the scenes. In addition to Bruno, Bentley Griffin will now voice Lincoln, replacing Asher Bishop after three seasons. Prior to the start of the season, Bruno and Griffin began voicing the characters in a clip show. Griffin also made his debut as Lincoln in an episode of The Casagrandes ("Skatey Cat").
During its fifth season, the show was tied with The Ren & Stimpy Show, The Wild Thornberrys, All Grown Up!, the 2012 TMNT series, and Hey Arnold! as the fifth longest-running Nicktoons.
Once Season 6 begins, the show will take sole possession of fourth place. The three Nicktoons which have lasted longer are the original Rugrats, the aforementioned OddParents, and still ongoing SpongeBob. It will also hold that position for the foreseeable future as Nickelodeon has unofficially renewed the show for Season 7.
No other Nicktoon can currently catch up to those shows.
It's Pony has all but been canceled, The Casagrandes is in its final season, and only a few have been renewed for additional seasons (Kamp Koral, the Rugrats reboot, and Star Trek: Prodigy).
Considering the show's longevity, hopefully Season 6 will continue to be fun and entertaining to watch for its many fans (and haters).
Season 6 of The Loud House premieres March 11th on Nickelodeon. The first four seasons currently stream on Paramount+.
Until next time, thank you for reading!
