Life with Louie is an American animated sitcom created by Louie Anderson and Matthew O'Callaghan for the Fox Broadcasting Company. The series was based on the childhood of Anderson, growing up with his family in the fictional town of Cedar Knoll, Wisconsin during the early 1960s, although Anderson himself was actually from Saint Paul, Minnesota, also situated in the Midwestern U.S.[1][2]

The first two episodes aired in primetime on Fox in late 1994,[1][3][4] before moving to Saturday morning on Fox Kids from 1995 to 1998.[5]

Ownership of the series passed to Disney in 2001 when Disney acquired Fox Kids Worldwide.[6][7][8]
