Trivia
The character Abby only appears in the show and not in the film, but she bears a striking resemblance to Daisy, who appears in the film but not the show. Daisy is never even mentioned in the show, but the death of Otis' father Ben is mentioned. Therefore, the show takes place after the events of the film.

Goofs
Otis is a steer, but he has an udder.

Just plain fun!

OK, this isn't Robot Chicken, but it is well written with spot-on pop references and nicely developed characters. Yes, Otis has an udder. No, I don't know why the "totally vegan" farmer keeps a farmyard full of animals (but it's nice to know my little animated friends are safe). The story lines actually keep me guessing, and the CGI is surprisingly sophisticated, especially for a TV show. Watching this show is a little like going to a Bowling for Soup concert - don't go into it expecting a deeply intellectual experience, just prepare for a terrific party!

Nick's new cartoons have been a mixed bag lately, with some uninspired entries (Tak and the Power of Juju) and some terrible ones (The Mighty B). This show is a welcome reminder of just how good Nick can be.
