Bosko's Mechanical Man is a 1933 American animated comedy short film directed by Hugh Harman. It is the 36th film in the Looney Tunes series featuring Bosko. It was released on July 22, 1933.
Plot Honey wipes a window, as Bosko comes by and writes "I love you" on it. Despite expecting a date, Bosko is instead forced to help Honey wash her dishes to his chagrin. He gathers a tower of dishes to quickly finish his job, but accidentally drops them and angers Honey. As he refuses to take accountability for his mistake, he spots a newspaper praising robots and haphazardly builds one out of a stove and random parts.
The robot predictably does not work as expected, but as Bosko toggles a free-wheeling mode, the robot runs into Honey's house, only to be stopped by Honey's perfume which renders it effeminate and docile. Though it attempts to return to normal, Honey stuffs a record player into the robot, causing it to sing "Mary Had a Little Lamb" and dance to the music, which temporarily works. It chases Bosko and Honey out and electrocutes an oblivious Bruno with the telephone. Bosko finds a barrel of TNT and throws it into the robot's mouth, destroying it.
