Don't understand why the 1983 series was such an amazing classic, even though original creators Ross Bagdasarian Jr. And Janaice Karman, has almost no connection to the original two cartoons, and almost no chipmunks singing.

The redesigns of the chipmunks are mediocre, moreover. Although they tried to make the chipmunks look like real children it looks more like a mix of their live-action and original designs fused into one design that creates Chipmunk Humans. And now, let's go to the flanderizations of the characters leaving their very generic personalities.

Alvin suffers the worst flanderization of them all in my opinion, he went from being selfish, rude, and mischievous, but innocent, relatable, and caring in the live-action franchise and the two 1961 and 1983 shows, respectively, to an idiot selfish, self-centered, irritating, sadistic and boring, making it very understandable for Dave to yell at him.

For example, "Liar Liar" where he lies to a child who has a brother in China and even says that Dave spread the lie.

In addition, he tortures and manipulates his brothers many times (mainly Theodore) 1. Talking Teddy.

Alvin gets tired of Talking Teddy and asks Simon to create a keyboard for him to edit what Talking Teddy says, but he goes too far, literally making Theodore do his chores and sell all his money!

In "Safety Third" he manipulates Simon into turning his bus project into a dangerous car that Dave won't buy for him.

In "The Great Snack Off when Theodore gets candy up his nose, (there are doctors) he tries to get the candy out in dangerous ways, which as Simon said, LITERALLY COULD HAVE EXPLODED THEODORE'S HEAD!

Simon has gone from a smart, likable character to a generic punching bag (yes, I know Simon has always been a Butt-Monkey, but here he's much more serious than he usually is) who is a jerk to Alvin (Although that could be justified, as he tortures Simon and Theodore most of the time), but remains pretty tolerable most of the time.

Theodore has been slightly flanderized as he is a large Butt-Monkey, and can sometimes be unsympathetic, for example he stole food in one episode (Allergic Reaction) The Chipettes have also been flanderized, into jerks who abuse their male counterparts in many episodes, especially in the first season. But, Jeanette is the least obnoxious and goofy one and remains pleasant most of the time.

Why would they think this was a good idea?

Why make such a terrible animation and a terrible show overall? That makes no sense.

The show is hideous.

Verdict: "hey we are looking to make a terrible show with terrible animations and with terrible characters It will be nothing like the original since it was soo good. Do you want to join our production team?"

Why the hell are you guys promoting a child trying to date a principal. What are you trying to teach kids. Kids don't watch full episodes of shows to learn a lesson from the shows. They take the bits and pieces and go from there.

Honestly tell me this cartoon is liked more than the 80s version. . It perfectly shows the relationship between all the main characters, from the first view, you can understand their characters, see everyday situations, amazing animation, the characters are all cute, each has its own individual character and each episode is different in its song. In General, the cartoon is awesome.

The series is an animated comedy about a single father named David Seville, who is raising three Chipmunks. He can lose his patience sometimes, causing him to say "ALVINNN!!!". There is a song in every episode. The series takes place in modern times and discusses modern topics such as Dave's technology issues and school bullying. Others are parents embarrassing kids and parents needing dates.

There are 20 episodes in season 1.

It's mainly one of the best shows in the planet. Alvin may be a troublemaker but hes always loveable

Why has the show been on for five seasons??? The show is nothing like the movies or the old cartoons! They show no representation of a good version of Alvin and the Chipmunks! Do not watch the show at all!

Since the release of this show it has become the best for me. Because it has funny lines, cool dialogue, a lot of songs, interesting stories and a lot of jokes which you can only get a lot of positive. 10/10

There is so much wrong with this show. The voice acting, the storyline, the animation, and the humor is just plain awful. I much prefer you watch the 80's show then watch this nightmare.

I expected good from this show but it's a total nick nightmare ( my cousin says). The animation is terrible and the music is anything but good. My family who would watch this show (6 years-10 years) all dislike the show. It's gotten so bad my sisters have Stoped watching nick all together. Lastly the personality of all the chipmunks are seriously just annoying. It's too bad that a channel that used to be so great, but now shows this for 5 hours straight! I'm giving it two stars Because the voice acting is alright. The plots are very stiff and full of holes. The show means to teach lessons, but never does. Instead we get repetitive episodes with no point whatsoever. They are supposed to be teenagers, but have the personality of a first grader, and the intelligence of one too. The voices of all the people are really squeaky and annoying. The only good quality of the show is the Chipmunks have okay voices, but other wise this show is a Nightmare. I think the worst part is the animation, as the chipmunks look like mutant warthogs. My dad described them as a cross between a human and a chipmunk, except the human was ugly. All the other reviews for this show were from a adults point of view, but I have kid evidence that this show sucks hardcore. How does it get 10 stars?

The way they move and the way it's animated makes it looks like too much is going on at the same time; it's simply not animated good enough. It looks unnatural, and it's not a great animation style.

This is a very good cartoon about an unusual trio of chipmunks: Simon, Alvin and Theodore. The result was a very musical cartoon, funny and funny. You can watch it with the whole family. Get a lot of positive emotions, from which you can be delighted. There are moments where you can laugh heartily. I liked everything in this cartoon. Beautiful story, great characters, songs and humor, unlike other cartoons on nickelodeon where there is fart jokes.

Terrible Animation and Design. The Chipmunks don't even look like Chipmunks. The other characters look nothing like they did in the old books and shows. Although it has some good humor, it struggles with it too. There are jokes that don't even make sense and are not funny at all. The voice acting is........... ok. Not very good but it's not bad either. But other then that, the show is just stupid and pointless.

Literally nobody asked for weird humanoid chipmunks. Just why? Who approved this animation? Seriously it's the most bizarre thing. It wouldn't be so horrible if it wasn't for that. It's just unwatchable, the human hands especially.
