The Ant and the Aardvark (1969)

A hungry blue aardvark is on a never-ending quest to catch a clever red ant named Charlie. Using absurd gadgets, elaborate traps, and sheer determination, the aardvark tries to outsmart his tiny prey—but Charlie always finds a way to escape. Packed with slapstick humor, jazzy music, and witty dialogue, this classic animated series from DePatie-Freleng Enterprises delivers fast-paced comedy in every episode. Originally released as theatrical shorts from 1969 to 1971, the series later became a beloved part of The Pink Panther Show.
