The Alvin Show

The Alvin Show is an American animated series by Bagdasarian Film Corporation and Format Films, which aired on CBS from. The series was later rerun for a few years on the same network as a Saturday morning cartoon. It was the first television production to feature the Alvin and the Chipmunks characters, and was followed by Alvin and the Chipmunks in 1983.

The Alvin Show developed the singing Chipmunk trio as rambunctious kids–particularly the show's namesake star–whose mischief contrasted to his tall, brainy brother Simon and his chubby, gluttonous brother Theodore, as well as their long-suffering, perpetually put-upon manager-father figure, David Seville.
