Alvinnn!!! and the Chipmunks[4] is a computer-animated television series for adults and teenagers produced by Bagdasarian Productions and Technicolor Animation Productions with the participation of the French channel M6.[5] First announced by Bagdasarian Productions in 2010, it features Alvin and the Chipmunks and The Chipettes.[6] This series marks their first television appearance together since 1990. A promotional trailer for the series was posted on YouTube.

Animation and half of the show's storyboards are handled by Technicolor Productions in France, while Bagdasarian Productions in the U.S. is in charge of voice recording and music production.[7] The series is primarily distributed by PGS Entertainment, a French brand management company.[8][9] It premiered on M6 on March 30, 2015. In August 2015, Nickelodeon acquired the American broadcast rights to the series.[10]

Plot

Simulating an anthology of a famous band, songwriter David Seville is raising platinum recording groups The Chipmunks and Chipettes (Alvin, Simon, Theodore, Brittany, Jeanette and Eleanor, though part time for the Chipettes). Dave's patience is tested everyday, but despite all of this, he loves the entire band like his own family. The series takes place in modern society and discusses modern topics such as Dave's technology issues. Others are parents embarrassing kids and parents needing dates.[4]
