5.0 out of 5 stars Alvin's finally made it to DVD with 2 Christmas episodes and one extra! , November 9, 2005

By	Doctor Trance (MA, United States) - See all my reviews (TOP 1000 REVIEWER)

This one has 3 episodes, with the first being the classic early 80's Xmas Special, A Chipmunk Christmas. This is the one where Alvin gives up his prize harmonica to a sick boy for Christmas, then is in a bind because Dave booked them at Carnegie Hall and now he doesn't have it to play.

The other 2 episodes are from the late 80's TV show, The Chipmunks. The first is named Merry Christmas Mr. Carroll, and I believe it is one in the same as the VHS release a while back called Alvin's Christmas Carol. It is excatly that, Alvin is being stingy and makes up a huge Christmas list, and then is taught the meaning of Christmas by 3 ghosts.

The last episode, Dave's Wonderful Life, is in the spirit of Christmas and the story of It's A Wonderful Life, however there isn't really anthing festive or Christmasy depicted.

A must have for the 2 Xmas episodes, escpecially the first one, where we get the classic holiday tune, The Chipmunk Song!

4.0 out of 5 stars ALLLLVIIIIN!!!!, November 26, 2005

By	Marc Drayer (Topeka, Kansas United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This DVD is quite refreshing. Not only does it have the 1980 classic A Chipmunk Christmas, but it has two Christmas episodes from the Chipmunk series, doing their versions of a Christmas Carol and It's A Wonderful Life in their own cute way. A great addition to any Christmas collection.

The only reason I'm giving it 4 stars instead of 5 is I'm a little disappointed there were no special features on this DVD. Alvin has been a great addition to Christmas ever since the release of that classic song "The Chipmunk Song" (1958). Some things on that could have been added. But I'm still glad to have Alvin and the Chipmunks as part of my Christmas.
