Perhaps because of his disapproval of Psycho, and to insult Sir Alfred Hitchcock, Walt Disney chose Loomis as the name of the family that adopts the seal in the wholesome Disney TV show double-episode, "Sammy the Wayout Seal", two years later in 1962. Thus the Disney show borrows the whole name "Sam Loomis" from Psycho. Perhaps most pointedly, in the Disney show, one of the young Loomis sons is played by Billy Mumy, whom one year earlier in 1961, Hitchcock had physically threatened on set while directing "Bang! You're Dead" from his own TV show, Alfred Hitchcock Presents.
