The first official vocal appearance of [[Alvin and the Chipmunks]] was their three-time Grammy award-winning single "[[The Chipmunk Song (Christmas Don't Be Late)]]" in 1958. Driven by the success of this hit, [[Ross Bagdasarian, Sr.]] created ''[[The Alvin Show]]'', [[The Chipmunks]]' first television series, in 1961 and the group's first solo album, ''[[The Alvin Show (album)|The Alvin Show]]''. After his death in 1972, his son, [[Ross Bagdasarian, Jr.]], relit the franchise in 1980 with the album ''[[Chipmunk Punk]]''. Seeing an opportunity to continue his father's legacy, Ross Bagdasarian, Jr. and his wife, [[Janice Karman]], launched the 80s Chipmunks with the TV series ''[[Alvin and the Chipmunks (TV series)|Alvin and the Chipmunks]]'', ''[[The Chipmunks (TV series)|The Chipmunks]]'', and ''[[The Chipmunks Go to the Movies]]'', lasting eight seasons total. They would also create [[The Chipettes]] in 1983 and release the first animated feature film, ''[[The Chipmunk Adventure]]'', in 1987. In 2007, the franchise entered into a second revival which began with the release of the group's third platinum album, ''[[Alvin and the Chipmunks: Original Motion Picture Soundtrack]]'', and the start of the CG Chipmunks. The CGI/live-action films ''[[Alvin and the Chipmunks Film|Alvin and the Chipmunks]]'', ''[[Alvin and the Chipmunks: The Squeakquel|The Squeakquel]]'', and ''[[Alvin and the Chipmunks: Chipwrecked|Chipwrecked]]'' together opened the door for the creation of a new television series, ''[[ALVINNN!!! and The Chipmunks]]'', premiering March 2015, and a fourth CGI/live-action film, ''[[Alvin and the Chipmunks: The Road Chip]]'', expected to premiere December 2015.
