Otis (Back at the Barnyard)

Otis is the main protagonist of the Barnyard franchise. He is Pip's best friend, Daisy's ex-husband, Lil' Ben's adoptive father, Abby's boyfriend, and Ben's adoptive son.

Why He Rocks Now

 * 1) For an anthropomorphic cow, his design is pretty cool looking despite the fact that it doesn't make sense for him to have an udder.
 * 2) He’s well animated and looks better than how he was in the movie and for CGI animation from 2007, it has aged better.
 * 3) He cares about his friends and has excellent chemistry with Pip, most notably, Cowman and Ratboy (Otis & Pip) are pretty funny and manage to be great parodies of Batman & Robin.
 * 4) He admits his mistakes and tries to fix anything if he screws up and while it has a tendency to be repetitive, at least he has the decency to realize if he screwed up.
 * 5) He’s very funny as a character and manages to become an internet meme with hilarious moments such as the milking machine scene and the dairy section.
 * 6) Chris Hardwick in the show did an impressive job voicing him by giving a loud and boisterous tone for Otis's voice to contrast Kevin James's toned down and laid-back performance. Which fits Otis's mischievous, irresponsible personality.
 * 7) His relationship with Abby the cow is very interesting to watch and one could even think that they could be a couple.
 * 8) His character improved in comparison to the film as he is more likable than how he was in the movie.
 * 9) Underneath his irresponsibility though, he comes up with a ton of intelligent and clever ideas.

The Only 3 Bad Qualities

 * 1) Before the show, he was very unlikable in the 2006 film, Barnyard.
 * 2) Although what's done is done, it doesn't make sense for him to have an udder when bulls don't even have them, but female cows do.
 * 3) He is responsible for most situations that occur on the Barnyard.
 * 4) * Such as his acts of stupidity for example.
