"The Alvin Show on Nickelodeon" opening! 

I love how it's covered with Nick logos. Nick was like "Hey alvin, we'll pay you 10$ for each logo you can fit into your intro" This was the final product.

Cant believe alvin was in nickelodeon I grew up watching alvin and the chipmunks on Cartoon Network

I always love how the music stops every time Clyde Crashcup and Leonardo come across the screen.

The Alvin Show on CBS (1961-1965), syndicated (1965-1969), NBC (1979), WGN (1983), TBS (1986-1987), Nickelodeon (1994-95)

I watched this at daycare a little bit during the 90s. No matter the age or generation. A show like this is for all ages and all generations.

Seeing the Nick logo all over the place is certainly interesting!

I used to watch it when I was little. This reminds me of Weinerville.

This predicted the 2015 chipmunks show 🔮

I love every Alvin and the chipmunks series^^ Those fellas are my fav band❤💙💚

These were the best,much better than today's.

Nickelodeon aired the show on March 7, 1994 at 8:30am until June when it moved to 8:00am on Sunday mornings. It moved to 9:00am to Weekday mornings where it aired for 3 months from June 13 to October 21, 1994. Nickelodeon moved the show to afternoons from July to October 1, 1994 at 2:30pm, later moved to 11:00am. and later moved back Sunday mornings at 7:30am for one last time July 2, 1995 to December 31, 1995.

Many believed this never existed, well, here's the proof it did! Take this one off of Lost Media! =D

The last time I seen the Nickelodeon version intro of The Alvin Show was 25 years ago. Today was the first time I viewed it again on your channel. Man where did the time go. Thank you for sharing this and bringing back memories. 8^)

Lest we forget, The Alvin Show was in regular syndication in the late 70s on most CBS networks, and the V of Doom was originally tacked on after the Bagdasarian Productions logo.

World's longest intro

Fun Fact: The Nickelodeon logos are in Alvin's character: allowing his old works to be changed for his preference, while Dave wants them intact. This makes him similar to George Lucas.

Totally remember when Nick aired this back in ‘93-‘94.

They had to make it VERY clear that it’s from Nick lol

This is the version I remember. It was interesting for kid me since I only knew the 80s version which was the current version at the time

I remember Nickelodeon reran the 1961 prime-time animated "The Alvin Show" under the title "The Alvin Show on Nickelodeon" for about 1 year from March 7, 1994 to December 31, 1995. The show aired on weekday mornings, and later moved to Saturday mornings, and Sunday Mornings, and back to Saturday Mornings for approximately about 1 year. When they did, they plastered the Nickelodeon logo onto the opening sequence wherever possible, very similar to what they did with "Yogi Bear ("Nickelodeon's Most Wanted: Yogi Bear")", "Rocky and Bullwinkle ("Bullwinkle's Moose-A-Rama"),", "Charlie Brown" ("You're on Nickelodeon, Charlie Brown)", "Pinky and the Brain" and "Animaniacs." They would also cut one of the two musical numbers in each episode (to make room for more commercials, obviously). But it was still a great way to see the old series, and a great introduction to the Chipmunks! The network aired every episode as it originally was broadcast (save for the commercial plugs and Alvin's addition of his name to the closing). During this time, the show would air as individual cartoons and musical segments rather than full TV episodes were inserted into episodes of Weinerville until December 30, 1995. but sometime on December 1995, Nickelodeon would stop showing the full TV episode versions of The Alvin Show, but the individualized cartoon segment versions of The Alvin Show as part of Weinerville would still air on Nickelodeon until Nick ceased broadcast of The Alvin Show. I do remember the Nickelodeon intro, and I also do remember seeing the shorter version that aired during "Weinerville". Beginning in 1995, Nickelodeon dropped all pre-1980s animated shows (with the exceptions of "Looney Tunes", "Bullwinkle's Moose-A-Rama" and "Gumby", even though the latter showed the 1980s redubs of the 1950s and 1960s episodes). They had to dropped other animated shows from the network, but not just this show, but with stuff like "Nickelodeon's Most Wanted: Yogi Bear", "Underdog", the older Paramount and UPA cartoons from "Cartoon Kablooey", "Batfink" and "Courageous Cat and Minute Mouse" from "Weinerville", and this show and the individual cartoon segment versions of The Alvin Show that aired as part of Weinerville was taken off the air as well, and hasn't been shown on American TV since January 1996.

My grandpa remembers this show from the 60s

This is from all 26 episodes from Nickelodeon (they cut 1 segment per episode, for whatever reason). Many episodes the Nick intro, some do not (One episode I do know is "Alvin's Course"). "Stanley the Eagle", "Sam Valiant, Private Nose", "Squares", "Ostrich", "Good Neighbor", "Fancy", Alvin's Alter Ego", "Sam Valiant, Real Estate", "Camping Trip", "Overworked Alvin", "Dude Ranch", "Jungle Rhythm", "Bentley Van Rolls", "Good Manners", "Little League", "Hillbilly Son", "Lovesick Dave", "Eagle in Love", "Theodore's Dog", "Haunted House", "Alvin's Studio", "The Whistler", "Sir Alvin", "Disc Jockey", and "Eagle Music".

Friends, according to what you used to read from Alvin show lost media, all episodes were found in 2020

I just saw an "Alvin Show" episode aired on Nickelodeon without Nickelodeon plastering their logo all over the intro!

I don't know which one's worse, this one or the Pinky and the Brain intro.

Alivin show and garfield and friends needs to come back to nickrewind if possible.

Nick has then aired the 60s Alvin Show on Weinerville and Cartoon Kablooey, as well as the Nick Jr. block following Rugrats. Along with The Muppet Show, Lassie, and the Dennis the Menace B&W sitcom. By October, Alvin and Dennis left the block for the debuts of Gullah Gullah Island and Allegra's Window.

Now we know why alvinnn and the chipmunks is a confirmed cartoon show on nickelodeon 😁

Nick when Spongebob gets another season: 1:29

0:45 "I am Clyde Crashcup." 1:11 "Clyde Crashcup, the great inventor."

why does Nick have basically put their name all over any syndication rights they look at Pinky and the Brain and Animanics

I wonder if this aired on Nickelodeon by any chance :P Great video! I can't believe Nickelodeon did this to the opening!!

The last time I seen the Nickelodeon version intro of The Alvin Show was 25 years ago. In 2012, I heard and found out that a Lost Media Wiki user named Rugratskid began re-uploading segments to RU-vid, but they were again removed by Bagdasarian. In 2017, LMW user Rugratskid has almost the entire show in his possession.

Everything’s Better with The Nickelodeon Logo!😍❤️📺🎶

Thanks for the post ! The music reminds me of the theme song for "The Bugs Bunny Show".

Ross bagdasarian Sr would've been proud to see how far his Chipmunks got!

21 years later: ALVIIIIIIIIN!!!

Seeing the same scenographic backgrounds and the same animation makes me think of the favorite cartoons: The adventures of Rocky and Bullwinkle & Friends (From Jay Ward Cartoon) and the Mr Magoo Show (from UPA Cartoon) With his Favorite Feature Film of 1962 "Mr Magoo's Christmas Carol".

This was def very interesting to see the Nickelodeon logo plastered on everything possible in the intro since the show was created and originally broadcast yrs before Nickeloodeon. I do understand why they have the copyright date on in the very beganing of the intro as they did that from what ive seen on YT uploads Looney Tunes on Nickeloodeon 1988-1992 airings as well as Yogi Bear airings on Nick.

It's not as bad as Nickelodeon's Most Wanted: Yogi Bear, Bullwinkle's Moose-A-Rama, You're on Nickelodeon, Charlie Brown, Pinky and the Brain and Animaniacs on Nickelodeon.

I wish The Alvin Show was back on TV and would be on MeTV Toons.

Nickelodeon acquired the broadcasting rights to The Alvin Show series, which aired inside and outside of Weinerville and reran from March 7, 1994 to December 31, 1995 (the network's logo made a very heavy appearance in the series' segments), before leaving the network completely in 1996. Nick also aired the 80s Alvin and the Chipmunks series from July 3, 1995 to June 30, 1997. Rights to the ALVINNN!!! and The Chipmunks series were acquired in 2014 for most countries worldwide with the US branch gaining them in 2015.

Let’s hope Nickelodeon doesn’t buy out Alvin and the Chipmunks like they did with Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and Garfield, since they aired reruns of The Alvin Show in the 90’s and the recent CGI Alvin series premiered on Nick 6 years earlier.

The Alvin Show on Nickelodeon opening (1961/1994-1995)

What happened to Nickelodeon? They used to be so good and now...

Why in the Nickelodeon logo plastered all over everything? They did this with Yogi Bear, Rocky and Bullwinkle, Charlie Brown, Pinky and the Brain, and Animaniacs!

If anyone didn't know, the animation was with the cooperation of Terrytoons

Nickelodeon made me a fan 29 years ago at seven years old.

Times were tough before the British Invasion brought rock and roll into the mainstream.

Nickelodeon actually reruns of The Alvin Show and the original Alvin and the Chipmunks all in the 90's.

You guessed right I still am a fan of Alvin ands the chipmunks both the old and the new ones even their original and new creators, And everything related to their franchise.

1:29 me and the boys are dancing

I remember this!

AAAAAALLLLLVIIIINNNNNN!!!

50 year of story ... I never seen it's was so old

I counted 38 (including scenes where it shows the same area twice and snippets of logos)

The Nickelodeon opening of The Alvin Show looks like The Alvin Show was made and filmed at Universal Studios Florida in Orlando, Florida where Nickelodeon Studios was in until 2005. But the show was made and first aired way before either Nickelodeon, Universal Studios Florida and cable TV exist yet.

What was up with classic Nickelodeon plastering its logo all over shows it never made? 😆

I guess Ross Bagdasarian and Janice Karman didn't mind them using the rights in the mid 90's until Warner Bros. bought the rights for reruns on Cartoon Network of the 1980's cartoon until 2001.

This was part of Weinerville

I watched ALVINNN! And the Chipmunks on Gloob

Well, if there's any consolation, ALVINNN!!! and the Chipmunks is on Nickelodeon....

Music by Hoyt Curtain

The Alvin Show, Cartoon Kablooey, Bullwinkle's Moose-A-Rama, Underdog, Alvin and the Chipmunks (the 1983 series), Looney Tunes, Gumby, Beetlejuice, The Adventures of Tintin, Inspector Gadget, Tiny Toon Adventures, Garfield and Friends, You're on Nickelodeon, Charlie Brown! and Animaniacs needs to come back to NickRewind one day.

Alvin smaller than Theodore and Simon

I don't the chipmunks are from nickelodeon until now.

Was it ever explained why Alvin doesn't like Clyde Crashcup? I think I've only seen like three episodes of the series (which had Clyde with baseball, babies, and flight) and there's no direct interaction between them. Just Alvin frowning at him in the intro and being surprised when he found out he had to introduce Clyde Craschup.

So that’s why Alvin 2015 was aired on nick?

The alivin show sounds too funny

NICKELODEON LOGOS THERE EVERYWHERE NICE

This was the 1961

Alvin show 1961 1962 but in march 1994 they renewed a 2 season in January 1996 the show on nick ended

the music sounds like it was from the classic disney movies

B'casters sketch cartoon criteria variety.com/1994/tv/news/b-casters-sketch-cartoon-criteria-119525/ "Nickelodeon has its own Nicktoons -“Doug,” "Ren and Stimpy, "Rugrats” and “Rocko’s Modern Life”- each with its particular appeal. When it comes to acquired cartoons, the kids’ network is looking for some of the same things. “We look for humor-based, character-driven cartoons,” says Diane Robina, VP of acquisitions. “We go for more evergreen classic characters: Bullwinkle, Underdog, Looney Tunes, Muppet Babies.” Coming to Nick in April are “Beetlejuice” and “The Alvin Show,” featuring the singing chipmunk. Robina also buys shorts for specific slots. One spot for them is “Weinerville ,” a comedy show hosted by Marc Weiner, who often appears with his head through a curtain over the body of a puppet. Animated shorts used on the show are “mostly gems that have been hidden,” Robina says, among them Mr. Magoo and Gerald McBoing Boing. They fit the look of “Weinerville” because of the “big bodies with little feet,” she says. “I don’t think Looney Tunes would play in that spot.” Nickelodeon’s preschool fare generallly runs to stories with a moral, she says, with hand-drawn characters. It often comes from abroad, such as “The World of David the Gnome,” produced by Cinar of Canada and BRB of Spain, and animated segments for “Eureeka’s Castle".

It's Not As Bad As Pinky & The Brain On Nickelodeon

"How many logos can we fit on here?"

I would like to use this instrumental version of the song for The Snoopy Show’s second season opening.

I dunno what channel this aired on, I think it was Cartoon Network

Often times plastering their logos over the traditional openings/intros of those old cartoons. They did that for Looney Tunes, Yogi Bear, Rocky and Bullwinkle and Animaniacs. And originally, it was just the old cartoons, they didn't do this kind of this for Underdog, Muppet Babies, Beetlejuice, Gumby, The Adventures of Tintin, the 80's/90's Alvin and the Chipmunks, Tiny Toon Adventures, neither did Inspector Gadget, Danger Mouse, Count Duckula, Garfield and Friends, Ace Ventura: Pet Detective, or any of the live-action shows. Keyword originally. The most imfamous example of that kind of thing would occur in 2000 with their run of Pinky and the Brain, with the intro is altered to the point of absurdity.

Is there any other way that you can upload the intro and outros to Cartoon Kablooey, (the earlier version aired the late 50's-60's Paramount cartoons, and the later version aired the UPA cartoons, at the same time when the show was re-aired, but the show was now consisted of the material that was used for Weinerville, so it was anything from UPA or Paramount that cluttered the half-hour block) that Nick used to show in the early-to-mid 1990's (1990-1991; 1993-1995)? Thank you.

0:33 first 3D shot of a nick logo!

what channel am I watching again? I am confused.

is nice

Any clips of Alvin writing “something”?

Did this come from one of your tapes?

So did the original intro actually have like CBS logos or something they had to replace???

Do you actually have all 26 episodes from Nickelodeon now (they cut one segment per episode, for whatever reason). Some episodes have the Nick intro, some do not (one episode that I do know is "Alvin's Cruise"). Is there any other way to upload episodes of The Alvin Show on Nickelodeon online?

Do you have all 26 episodes from Nickelodeon (they cut one segment per episode, for whatever reason)?

They need to bring "The Alvin Show" back on Nick. "Alvin" was a regular feature in "Weinerville" and the series even made its way onto the Nick schedule in the mid-90's, along with its 80's spinoff "Alvin & The Chipmunks" (we can still see that one on Cartoon Network, I believe, so just the original would return to Nick) though since they have the new series...Alvinnn!!! and the Chipmunks.

Why hasn't this series been released on DVD? Is it the songs? They could easily remove them.

#AlvinandtheChipmunksonNickelodeon!

why is Theodore’s shirt blue

Who agrees that the Alvin show SHOULD'VE aired on Boomerang from cartoon Network in 2000s?
