- DirectorJohn R. McCroryStarBilly MurrayBuster Bear opens the cartoon by walking up to the would-be Looney Tunes sign, greeting the audience with "Hi ya! Hello everybody!" Before doing a little dance as congratulatory music plays. The feature then opens to a cat driving a large truck that says "The Buster Bear Carnival". The cat rings a bell as dogs and other cats run alongside the truck. A pair of pig twins are chasing the truck, one on a unicycle and one on foot. The one on the unicycle bears a strong resemblance to future Looney Tunes star Piggy, who was created by Rudolph Ising. He reads a newspaper and then tips his hat to the viewer. Buster Bear is waiting for the animals at town hall. He is their sheriff and M.C. for the event. He goes from having a high-pitched voice to a deep one when he bullies a dancing broom and dustpan, then he returns to dancing. Dancing frogs, a dancing cow and a mother bear with three cubs soon follow Buster into the hall for the show. Buster introduces a duck couple who dance, make out and then perform a stunt. With each act he introduces, his pants droop. The next act is of a stork using a newborn pup to play xylophone with his wings, but the crowd disapproves and a hook pulls the stork apart. Various other animals play instruments during and after the segment to keep the crowd entertained. The next act is a horse jumping rope, which the crowd applauds. The final act is a dog blacksmith, hitting a horseshoe on an anvil, but the weight of the dog and the anvil are too much, and they fall through the stage. Delirious, he hits a major pipe, flooding the town hall and the iris closes on all the animals escaping Town Hall. The short ends with Buster wearing heavy eye shadow and saying "I'll be seeing ya!" on a ledge built from the planet Earth as beautiful clouds and stars pass by.Only released cartoon starring Buster bear but focuses more on the Side Characters.
