Following the incredible popularity of the novelty record "The Chipmunk Song", this animated series about the singing rodents was created. Manager David Seville spends his days taking care of his young chipmunk charges, Alvin, Simon and Theodore, as they regularly get into one type of trouble after another. Included in each episode was a cartoon featuring inventor Clyde Crashcup and his assistant, Leonardo.

Episode 1
Wed, Oct 4, 1961
The Chipmunks are bored so they decide to build a bird house which rather quickly invites an eagle who is nervous to learn to fly. Alvin makes it his personal goal to get him flying. Their first attempt fails when Stanley falls into a manhole. Though their second attempt is more successful, Stanley still needs assistance from the boys. When Dave finds out that Alvin is conditioning a wild eagle, he overreacts and calls the police. Finally, with enough confidence, Stanley takes off soon before the police arrive to take Dave away.
