Title: Where In The World Is Carmen Sandiego? Post by: SCerviche on June 09, 2005, 11:34:23 pm im not talking about that animated series, becuase i dont really care much for it. no, im talking about the badass game show verson that showed here in Canada on PBS monday to friday at 5:00pm im not to sure if it showed anywhere else, and if it did, you guys are lucky cuz it was the best kids game show ever. and it had the best theme song to go with it.
so im just wondering if anyone else out there remembers this show or am i just insane ?:| EDIT: i hosted the theme on you send it. i hope it works cuz i never used you send it. http://s49.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=1FQFZCE5LXV7003LFDZ293HFAF Title: Re: Where In The World Is Carmen Sandiego?

Have you seen this site (http://googlefoundcarmensandiego.ytmnd.com/) before, by the way? Funny as heck, because you really do get that result on Google. :D Title: Re: Where In The World Is Carmen Sandiego? Post by: SCerviche on June 09, 2005, 11:51:05 pm yea that site got me thinkin about it.
i remeber at the end, that last kid that won had to play the last game thing where the gust asks you questions about where Carmen is and you have to run around a big map of the world and place big lights on the countrys and citys where you think she is. it was great.

I wish there were a few episodes to get for old times' sake.
Good times... Title: Re: Where In The World Is Carmen Sandiego? Post by: ApacheMan2K on June 10, 2005, 12:06:08 am who could not like that show? i remember things like "Do it, Rockapella!", and how they'd sing the names of Carmen's henchmen too.

I wish there were a few episodes to get for old times' sake. Hmm... I wonder if there's a secret underground community of Carmen Sandiego fans who trade episodes with each other, whilst the rest of the world has all but forgotten about the classic show. Nah. That show's too old. There couldn't be... Could there? :huh: Title: Re: Where In The World Is Carmen Sandiego?

I tried to watch it everyday when I get the chance. Too bad about the host who died. That's way too sad. I wish they bring it back. It's one of the best kid game shows they ever made.
