Back at the Barnyard (originally advertised as Barnyard: The Series) is an American animated television series created and executively produced by filmmaker Steve Oedekerk based on the 2006 film Barnyard, which he wrote, co-produced, and directed. The series serves as a direct sequel to the 2006 film. The series features the voice of Chris Hardwick as Otis, replacing Kevin James from the film, while Jeff Garcia, Tino Insana, Cam Clarke, Rob Paulsen, Wanda Sykes, Maria Bamford, Fred Tatasciore and Oedekerk reprise their roles from the film. It was the second Nickelodeon television series to be based on a film, with the first being The Adventures of Jimmy Neutron, Boy Genius. It aired from September 29, 2007 to September 18, 2010 on Nickelodeon for two seasons. The show was a co-production between Oedekerk's Omation Animation Studio and Nickelodeon Animation Studio. The last five episodes aired from September 12 to November 12, 2011, on Nicktoons.
