After there were singing chipmunks, but slightly before they could be adapted to the small screen, there were “The Nutty Squirrels”. Created in 1959, the Nutty Squirrels were a pretty direct ripoff of Alvin and his crew, but sang bebop jazz songs instead of songs people liked. Their 1960 animated program “The Nutty Squirrels Present” generally had the group introduce unrelated animated shorts with snippets of their terrible songs. Thankfully, it lasted only one season.

Is that you Kal running when you shouldn't run? He sure looks like you.
Call me crazy, but a guy with a turban, a tiger and an elephant you ride on come from India I think, not Africa. As for the Nutty Squirrels, the art is pretty bad. They aren't cute like the chipmunks. Fun video.
