The Ant and the Aardvark voices provided by John Byner unless otherwise noted. The first revival featured the characters as part on the 1993 incarnation of "The Pink Panther". The characters remained unchanged, though unlike the original 1969-1971 cartoons, they do not appear in their own segments but rather are included in segments featuring the Pink Panther (now voiced by Matt Frewer). John Byner returned to voice both Charlie Ant and the Aardvark. The second revival occurred in 2010 as part of "Pink Panther and Pals". Eddie Garvar voices the Aardvark, who retains his previous characterization. Kel Mitchell, using his natural voice, voices the Ant.
