Childhood memories...
Another Saturday morning cartoon I have a soft spot for...I even got a Chipmunks coloring book for Christmas one year! Cute characters and stories, and I thought it was so cool that Alvin, Simon and Theodore sang and did videos to the hot pop songs of the day (Up Where We Belong, Hungry Like The Wolf, etc). OK, it's cheesy now but it was great fun. By the way, has anyone else noticed that the Chipmunks theme song and Van Halen's "Jump" sound awfully similar?

Quotes

Alvin Seville, Simon Seville, Theodore Seville: Watch out, 'cause here we come / It's been a while, but we're back with style / So get set to have some fun / We'll bring you action and satisfaction / We're the chipmunks / C-H-I-P-M-U-N-K / We're the chipmunks / Guaranteed to brighten your day / ...

Alternate Versions

At least 2 episodes that were released on DVD have the original songs altered. They are, from "Curse of Lontiki", "Surfin' U.S.A." by The Beach Boys, and from "Theodore and Juliet", "Love Potion No. 9". "Curse of Lontiki", which was released on "The Alvinnn!!! Edition" DVD, replaces "Surfin' U.S.A." with "Surfin' Safari", also by The Beach Boys, while "Theodore and Juliet", which was released on the "Chipmunk Valentine" DVD, replaces "Love Potion No. 9" with "Witch Doctor". The 1996 VHS release of that episode retained the original song.
