Buddy was first created in 1929, staring in the cartoon, "Outback Buddy", in which he plays a ukulele while walking in the outback and singing merrily. However, the director Weed Memlo thought that the cartoon was too boring, and instructed the animator, Lon Borax, to add new characters and make it funnier. At around 2:45 in the morning, Borax, overworked and near insanity, drew up the characters of the Warners. In the new version, Buddy is seen playing the ukuele again, but this time, the Warners, who walk behind him, nail him with their mallets. The gag is repeated over the years in various Buddy/Warner toons, until, Thaddeus Plotz decides to fire Buddy, thinking he was no longer needed, despite the Warners fighting for him, (due to their love of hitting him with their mallets).

Buddy eventually became a nut farmer in Ojai, seemingly on good terms with the Warners. However, years later during the The Warners 65th Anniversary Special, we discover he in fact hated the Warners for ruining his career and attempted to kill them by planting a bomb under their podium, which would explode during their speech. Later when the Warners was thanking everbody who made them what they are today, they gave a big thanks to Buddy for starting their careers, stating that they wished he could be there with them. Buddy, hearing this, immediately ran out, where the Warners asked him to say a few words. Just as he was about to, Buddy realized he forgot about the bomb as it went off and got blown up, sending him flying into the sky, hitting one of the decorative giant mallets. He then fell to the ground in pain. The Warners lifted the mallet up to say that he hadn't lost his touch, and that the audience loved it, for which Buddy was thankful, they then dropped the mallet back ontop of him.
