A Looney Tune released on July 20, 1935.<\/p>\n<p>Well, somebody looks like they&#8217;re getting ready for a good time. It&#8217;s Cookie, looking way more like Betty Boop than Cookie <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wackyland2.com\/blog-1\/2018\/08\/12\/buddys-day-out\/\">Phudd<\/a>. Definitely makes her look more grown up than usual, but she&#8217;s got that counterintuitive Bernice Hansen voice that just begs to belong to child characters. Speaking of children, Buddy looks way,\u00a0<em>way,\u00a0<\/em>(P.S.\u00a0<strong>WAY<\/strong>) too young for her. She&#8217;s got a full head of height on him, and mixed with his baby face, he just looks like her little brother playing grown-up. (Whatever did happen to him?)<\/p>\n<p>As the title suggests, they step out. And it would be really rude of us to follow along on their private time, so let&#8217;s stay behind. Cookie&#8217;s got a canary. What more do <em>you <\/em>need to be entertained? (I&#8217;m so boring, but I&#8217;m&#8230; happy?) Too bad Cookie couldn&#8217;t bother buying a better cage for the little guy. I don&#8217;t care how &#8220;great&#8221; a depression is, buying an animal is a commitment. If you can&#8217;t guarantee a comfortable, enjoyable, meaningful life, then you shouldn&#8217;t have a pet. (And yes, that&#8217;s why <strong>this <\/strong>animal lover doesn&#8217;t have a parrot, tortoise and rat.)<\/p>\n<p>In other words, the bird slips out of his cage and out the open window. (Burglars love Cookie&#8217;s place. She even leaves out plates of her namesake for them.) He could potentially get back in, but its cold outside and the picture of Buddy on the desk can&#8217;t stand it. So, for the second time in the picture, Buddy steps out. With some extra muscle from an Atlas figurine, (or whatever you wanna call what a statue has) the house returns to warmer times. The poor canary realizes how good he had it by this point, but can&#8217;t enter a closed window! Buddy has moved on from torturing lower life <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wackyland2.com\/blog-1\/2021\/08\/08\/buddys-bug-hunt\/\">forms<\/a>, it seems.<\/p>\n<p>Good thing the photo isn&#8217;t really the real Buddy. He brings the bird back in, and not a moment too soon. Little fella is frozen solid. Little Buddy solves this by placing the canary in an ash tray, and igniting a lighter underneath. Because he has all the evil thoughts of the original Buddy! Why should Cookie share her love with any other creature? I know this is killing the bird because its starting to hiccup. Just like everything does on deaths door.<\/p>\n<p>Fine, it works. Sue me. (You do know how to contact me, right?) The bird is all better which means its party time. Original Buddy shouldn&#8217;t be the only one allowed to have a good time. Let&#8217;s have all the printed mascot characters in the house join in! Don&#8217;t you wish you could join in the joy of suddenly having a new dimension to move through? The girls on the soup can sing, and so does a Proto-Porky on a ham. Fittingly though, he does so in his native tongue: (say it with me) Pig Latin! Even an insect joins in the singing sesh. Quick, Henry, the Flik! It&#8217;ll teach him to join in things he wasn&#8217;t invited to.<\/p>\n<p>Jiggers! The couple! Everybody had better get back to their places because Cookie is going to have a fit if she has to look after so many little ones. That means canary goes in cage, and Little Buddy gets back in his frame. Original Buddy has to see his girl off with nothing more than a kiss on the hand. Little Buddy, on the other one, gets way more action. Cookie plants four times the kisses on the photo version. On his face, yet. Being a photograph rocks. And we have Beans seeing us off. A subtle way of telling us that Buddy&#8217;s days are numbered. (Proto-Porky actually appearing in the story says the same thing about Beans.)<\/p>\n<p>Favorite Part: The animals that &#8220;Flik&#8221; is said to kill include bugs, ants, slugs and snails. Oddly specific, but it&#8217;s like the animators were looking into the future saying: &#8220;Yes, Dr. Foolio, we DO know that &#8216;bugs&#8217; ISN&#8217;T supposed to be a catch-all term for insects. Our made-up product won&#8217;t cause any lasting harm to beetles, roaches, flies or caterpillars. Just aphids, cicadas and water striders.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Personal Rating: Well, I was going to give it a 3, for being fairly entertaining as far as Buddy cartoons go, but realized that it&#8217;s just another &#8220;products coming to life&#8221; picture that W.B. has no shortage of. Most if not all are better ones. If you only like the best in that category, then it&#8217;s a 2.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;Blow your nosey.&#8221; Supervision by Jack King; Animation by Charles Jones and Robert Clampett; Music by Bernard Brown.
