Buddy's Day Out is a 1933 Warner Bros. Looney Tunes cartoon, directed by Tom Palmer.[2] The short was released in theaters on September 9, 1933, premiering with Goodbye Again, and was the first cartoon to feature Buddy, the second star of the series who was created by Palmer.[3]

A former Disney animator, Palmer was shortly thereafter fired from the studio. This short was the first cartoon in the series produced by Leon Schlesinger Productions, as opposed to Harman-Ising Productions, and the first not to feature Bosko, created by Harman and Ising, as the central character.
