Sawyer calls baby Aaron "Baby Huey", a gigantic (and naïve) infant
duckling cartoon character. Baby Huey was a creation of Paramount
Pictures' Famous Studios in the early 1950s, and later became a Harvey
Comics title.
His first animated appearance occured in 1950 with the animated short,
"Quack a Doodle Doo". Syd Raymond provided the voice for the dimwitted
duck, who also was the voice for Katnip,
the cat. The series had two main storylines. One was Huey tormenting
his parents and the other was when Huey tried to fit in with the three
Huey, Dewey and Louie rip-offs, and the wolf. In all, Huey appeared in
12 animated cartoons from 1950-1959, when the character rights were
purchased by Harvey. These adventures were subsequently aired on "Matty's Funday Funnies" beginning in 1959.
