Stellead Don't listen to the Hype. It's awful
ShangLuda Admirable film.
TrueHello Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.
Isbel A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.
mitsubishizero There's not much to say about it other than it's very meh. The movie it was based on was meh and the same can be said about this show. Personally I like it because it's not the greatest cartoon but the animation is passable and some of the jokes do hit. The show's basically about the misadventures of Otis and friends have daily. One thing that's strange is that Otis' a male yet his body's a female. As for Abby (who's a new character) it's never explained why or how she came at all.Only a handful of the cast from the film return. Probably the best example was Kevin James' absence. The episodes don't break ground but it's still funny to see the gags and the jokes they tell. The show only had 2 seasons and it's not hard to see why. I notice in the second season there're a few changes in the characters: There're more pop culture references in many of the episodes, some of the characters such as Duke are less visible and their personality's reduced. Duke for example originally wanted to succeed Otis as the leader of the barn animals in the first season but this completely removed and Bessie's shown more of an emotional side than the previous season.Overall it's not a bad show, it's just meh. If you get the chance you should see it.
Hamza Tahir Malik I just noticed the simplest of things in this animated series that there is not one bull or oxen included, so this situation really annoys me and whenever i catch my little brother watching this show it just frustrates me.You are ignoring the simple biology here man ! So Basically we have male and female cows which doesn't even sound right.When i watched the movie for the first time i ignored it but when i caught my brother watching this series it amazed me that no single person thought about it and its just common sense.I mean cows need a bull to reproduce and this whole show seems that a gay person is directing it.
bull-904-250226 This cartoon series is one of the zaniest and enjoyable out there. Most shows based on movies tend to be pale imitations, but the writers behind "Back at the Barnyard" series give it a silly yet entertaining life beyond the silver screen. There's lots of pop references (ranging from "The Dark Knight" to "Survivor" to "Star Trek" and humor that the grown-ups can enjoy, and enough oddball fun and jokes that the younger set can laugh at as well. Like a sophisticated sitcom, this show relies heavily on a strong ensemble effort, so it's carried by all major and minor characters. Not every episode is a laugh riot gem, but enough are that it'll grow on you.My kids and I miss seeing this show but are hoping they'll release all the episodes on DVD soon.
DaytonMetroSoccer My original review was mean. Yeah, this show is stupid. The farm animals do stuff when the farmer isn't looking. If you want something that might make you smile, watch the movie. The show has is moments. It has progressed with humor, but still cliché. Personally, I don't like the show or the movie much, but this is something you can watch if there really is "nothing on". Nothing special, that's why it doesn't play much. This isn't a show trying to be nominated for an Oscar, so just sit back and watch. Let loose and enjoy yourself. If you laughed, admit it. Just because the majority of the show may not make you laugh, don't be so negative. Think positve. If you laugh, at least say you did.
