Review(s): DVD Alvin and the Chipmunks - A Chipmunk Christmas (25th Anniversary Special Collector's Edition)
Pretty Good DVD...
We bought this DVD mainly for Kiersten(our three year old granddaughter)to watch.We were not planning on watching it till closer to Christmas but she found it and HAD to watch it.It is 66 minutes long.There are three episodes.A Chipmunk Christmas is about Alvin giving his prized harmonica to a sick little boy,but Dave has booked them to play on Christmas Eve at Carnegie Hall and now Alvin has no harmonica.If I tell anymore,it'll ruin the surprise,so just watch this one.Merry Christmas Mr.Carroll is about a VERY GREEDY Alvin who is visted by three Christmas ghosts,PAST,PRESENT and FUTURE played by Dave,Theodore and Simon.Kiersten asked why Dave(who plays Ghost of Christmas Past)looked so grouchy.Dave's Wonderful Life is not a holiday episode as it takes place in the summer on this DVD,but is OK.There are several songs done on this DVD,with The Chipmunk Song probably being the best.There were just a few things I found a bit odd on this tape.At the beginning it appeared they lived in a warm climate(a man in a swimming pool,another planting flowers,etc)but by the end of the episode they had snow.And poor Theodore,they have him riding a pink bicycle and wearing pink earmuffs.Anyhow it is still worth buying.Amazon lists it at $12.99,we bought it at Target for $9.99.
ALLLLVIIIIN!!!!
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.
Only 3 episodes
Ok we have 3 Episodes of the Special Christmas Season.The first is the 1980 classic with the Christmas Song by the Chipmunks.The 2 others are from the Tv Show The Chipmunks.I'd like to see the whole series released soon.Please Paramount make us a favor and include a set with all episodes of the show by seasons.

Frosty's Winter Wonderland It's no secret that sequels to classic TV specials rarely stack up--they're usually guilty of getting too fancy with characters and story lines, causing irritating fissures to form in our perceptions of the originals. Lucky for a new generation of holiday viewers, that's not the case with Frosty's Winter Wonderland. In fact, lining up a Frosty double feature at home in which the original is directly followed by the new title is a fully cringe-free proposition, thanks mostly to the down-homey, pleasant narration of Andy Griffith and the near-perfect portrayal of the Frosty we all know and love by Jackie Vernon. The Wonderland dialogue doesn't trouble itself with tiresome throwbacks, and even the plot isn't overly ambitious: Frosty, lonely at the...
