The cartoon follows attempts of a blue aardvark named Aardvark (voiced by John
Byner, impersonating Jewish comedian Jackie Mason), to catch and eat a
red ant named Charlie (also Byner, impersonating Dean Martin), usually
doing so by inhaling with a loud vacuum cleaner sound. The character is
essentially unnamed; in the episode Rough Brunch, he claims his name is simply
"Aardvark." Charlie Ant gives his nemesis a variety of names as sly terms of
endearment (Ol' Sam, Ol' Ben, Ol' Blue, Claude, Pal, Buddy, Daddy-O). In
several bumper sequences of The Pink Panther Show, he is called "Blue
Aardvark."
