Airdate: Oddball

On Sunday Nat Geo premieres the factual series Oddball, behind the upcoming movie of the same name. Coincidentally, the film is also featured in Sunday Night -at the same time.

As previously noted, the doco series formed part of National Geographic’s investment in the film, produced by WTFN.

There’s nothing like a great Aussie story – and this one’s a beauty! Before you see the feature film, Oddball starring Shane Jacobson, see the true story about an eccentric chicken farmer who trains his mischievous dog to protect a wild penguin sanctuary from fox attacks, and in the process reunites his family and saves their seaside town.
