Back at the Barnyard

Back at the Barnyard is a CGI animated comedy TV series developed as a spin-off of the film Barnyard by Nickelodeon that revolves around Otis the cow and his barnyard friends, including Pip the mouse, Abby the cow, Pig, Freddy the ferret, Peck the rooster, Duke the sheepdog, and Bessy the cow. Otis, actually a bull, is a funny and smart party animal who tends to take out his daredevil side as his alter ego, Cowman, the Uddered Avenger, and has a requited crush on Abby, a voluptuous tomboy of a cow. His friend Pip unfortunately spends his time in a state of delusion, pining after the sarcastic Bessy the cow, hoping for the day that they would have beautiful mouse-cow babies. Back at the Barnyard offers laughs with its few pop culture parodies, such as Pig's Hollywood: Fact or Fiction segment, and the wacky messes Otis gets himself into and gets out of with the help of his friends. Steve Oedekerk, the creator of Back at the Barnyard, lends a similar humor to this show as he did to some of his other work, including the Nutty Professor with Eddie Murphy and Kung Po: Enter the Fist.
