Otis

Otis the cow is the main protagonist of the Barnyard movie, and Back at the Barnyard spinoff TV series. He appeared as a cameo during Sheen's dream in the pilot episode of Planet Sheen. The fun-loving leader of the barnyard, Otis is a cow with charisma. He's also full of the grand plans that usually lead him and his friends into trouble. Fortunately, he's also smart enough to find a way to lead the barnyard out of trouble, too. Ultimately, he's a good cow who cares about his friends...and even the farmer.

Personality
Otis is a fun-loving cow, who also seems to have a level of genius because he has created night clubs, cameras, even knows how to work guitars, cell phones, and microphones, and has the ability to play golf and go bowling. Otis also is glad to face his fears to save his friends, but often acts selfish and self centered when it comes to money and fame, and also has a sweet side and truly has a bovine heart of gold. He has a crush on Abby the cow. His catchphrases when upset are "Sweet cud!" and "Milk me."

Human Disguises
Among his many disguises are television newscaster Gil O'Malley, who appeared in the episodes The Big Barnyard Broadcast and Anchor Cow, politician Ned Bovine from Otis for Mayor, golfer Heifer Woods (punning off the famous golf pro Tiger Woods) from Cowdyshack, real estate agent Dick Human from Buyer Beware or Bob Notacow in Bling My Barn. He also has an superhero alter ego as Cowman and even has also gone as far as to dress in drag as a female to prove that girls have it easy in the Season Two premiere episode Some Like it Snotty.

Early life
In his youth, Otis lost his mother when he was a calf. He also was picked on by a bullying duck named Krauser Krebs, and then grew up and made friends with the other animals of the Barnyard. He had lost his adopted father when coyotes killed him in the movie, then blamed himself for his father's death. Otis and the other animals of the Barnyard defeated the coyotes and Otis became a father to Daisy's calves.
