Otis is assigned a shift along with Ben, but Otis cleverly talks himself out of that work. That night after the farmer goes to bed, the animals throw a wild party in the barn that everyone attends, except Ben, who decides to guard the fence line. That same day, Otis meets a pregnant cow named Daisy, who has moved to the farm with her friend Bessy. After Otis interrupts a routine morning roll call and meeting with his usual antics, Ben warns Otis that he will never be happy if he continues without acting more responsible and mature, but he deliberately ignores his father's advice and leaves to do so anyway. Otis is a mischievous, fun-loving and carefree Holstein cow who lives on a local farm and prefers having fun with his best friends - Pip, Freddy, Peck and Pig - rather than following strict rules and accepting responsibility much to the chagrin and annoyance of his stern and uptight adoptive father and leader of the farm's community, Ben. Nevertheless, it spawned a television series, titled Back at the Barnyard, which ran on Nickelodeon and later Nicktoons for two seasons. It had received negative reviews from critics who described it as "unimaginative and unfunny" and particularly targeted its inaccurate depiction of bulls having udders for criticism. It grossed $116.5 million worldwide against a $51 million production budget.
The film was in development in 2002 and was released on August 4, 2006, in the United States and October 5, 2006, in Germany. It tells the story of Otis, a carefree Holstein cow who learns the value of responsibility when he becomes the leader of his farm home's community after his adoptive father's death from a coyote attack. The film stars the voices of Kevin James, Courteney Cox, Sam Elliott, Danny Glover, Wanda Sykes, Andie MacDowell, and David Koechner. The film is directed, produced, and written by Steve Oedekerk, the co-creator of Jimmy Neutron: Boy Genius and its television series continuation The Adventures of Jimmy Neutron, Boy Genius.
