Alvin rock 'n' roll

The complete series was lost media for a while as it's never been officially available on home video, DVD, or streaming, making viewing all episodes virtually impossible. Not to mention, the DVDs that have actually released have only select episodes which are out of order and severely edited from their original state (title cards and bumpers removed as well entire segments completely cut out). Eventually the full series was found and unofficially recovered on Internet Archive.

The Chipmunks clearly live in the United States, yet several of their adventures show them as secret agents travelling to "the border" and crossing over into what appears to be an Eastern European country.

In syndication, the first 52 episodes, from when the show was animated by Ruby-Spears Productions, along with the Valentine's and Reunion specials, from 1984 and 1985 respectively were purchased along with the first 11 episodes of season 6. In addition, most of, if not all of the episodes were time-compressed, and resulted in an increase in pitch. All episodes that have been released on VHS and DVD, have the original proper pitch reinstated.
