Carmen Sandiego, the gentlewoman thief who stole our hearts (along with our national treasures) in the 80s and 90s, is back with an all new Carmen Sandiego reboot on Netflix starring Gina Rodriguez. Carmen Sandiego has a history going much further back however, beginning with the iconic game from Broderbund. The edutainment classic spawned a multimedia franchise, including additional games like Where in the USA is Carmen Sandiego and Where in Time is Carmen Sandiego, as well as an animated series, Where on Earth is Carmen Sandiego, and of course, the legendary Carmen Sandiego game show on PBS, simply known as Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego.
Hosted by Greg Lee and Lynn Thigpen as the Chief, the Carmen Sandiego game show cemented her status as an all-time icon, especially when you hear the Carmen Sandiego intro with the amazing Carmen Sandiego theme song performed by Rockapella. For Carmen Sandiego, 2019 will be a new chapter in her life of crime, thanks to the new Carmen Sandiego animated series on Netflix with Gina Rodriguez and Finn Wolfhard, and a brand new Carmen Sandiego origin. The cartoon has an all-star voice cast and pays tribute to all aspects of Carmen San Diego lore in the medium of animation, and as we scoured every trailer, clip, and scene to figure out where in the world she is, we learned a lot more about Carmen’s world, and our own.

Everyone asks where is Carmen Sandiego. But no one ever asks How is Carmen Sandiego....
Aaron Lew why is Carmen Sandiego lol
A better question is "WHEN is Carmen Sandiego?"
It be like that
She's a strong independent criminal who don't need no one to ask how she is. She does want people to ask where she is though. Crime is no fun if no one is trying to stop you.
Josefhdz99 just about to say that
There's a rumor. Of a guy working for Carmen that scouts out the locations for her. It's hard to see him in a crowd even though he does not try to hide himself. All we have is a name that we don't know if it's a code name or his real name. That name is Waldo.
I want this to be cannon!!!
No his name is player it was revealed in the new Netflix version I can’t believe you smh 😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤
Callio r/woooosh
@@achild4200 thats the godamn joke you double wooshed yourself you big dumb head
@@dirrt5011 it was a play on Where's Waldo lol.
Villain or anti-hero, one thing is for certain. Carmen is and always will be iconic.
well ant that the truth
Not really. A lot of people only know her from netflix.
@@fish4973 How does that have to with how good the story is tf lmao
''Villain'' and ''anti-hero'' are easily interchangeable tags.
*Are you really that sure that the Carmen Sandiego from the 90's cartoon isn't stealing from others thieves?*
@@gonzalot.605 Yes. Because she heads up V.I.L.E in that iteration and the likes of Tigress & Sarah Bellum work below her.
I grew up with the 90s cartoon, but this new Netflix anti-hero version is my favourite incarnation of Carmen Sandiego so far
Yet to see, but for a start I always liked Carmen SanDiego being on her 30's, not sure I'm fond of her teenage version.
@@karinefonte516 she's actually 20 in the Netflix version, not counting flashbacks to VILE crime school
Same here, actually.
I agree. Something done right as far as a reboot
@@MichaelHaneline Shes 20?! I thought she was atleast 17
The new series on Netflix is incredible!! I marathoned the whole first season in a few nights.
@Morgan Brandy it's a cartoon so the focus is on kids but all ages can enjoy it. I'm an adult and I binged it too lol
Literally me right now, started watching it yesterday and I'm going to go finish it now XD
I binged the whole show in a matter of hours😌😌😌 get to my level
Literally finished whole season in 2.5 days
LOL i watched it in a day cause o drank to much coffee.
I hadn't heard of carmen before Netflix but personally I think Netflix made a good decision of making her a defector, doing the right thing isn't always legal and that's a thin line to cross. Having a WOC that teaches kids about geography and cultures is awesome!
I liked her as a criminal though
At first I thought that Carmen sandiego was a ripoff of both totally spies and miraculous but now I saw that Carmen is original
I've never heard of Carmen San Diego before the Netflix series but I'm really enjoying the show and the direction its going. It honestly wouldn't make sense for her to go evil in this series, especially for audiences like me who only know her from Netflix.
Same
Same. I haven't heard of it before the Netflix one either.
Vicki Sameee
I'm guessing you're either quite old or quite young🤔.
@@melanieortiz712 Well I'm turning 20 this November, so at least for me, I'm feeling quite old 😅
I like her as an anti hero
I agree. In the 90's show, she always stood out as a bit of an anti-villain due to her code of honor. Carmen just fits in perfectly as a character who is neither on the side of the law or as crooked as other criminals. The ultimate chaotic neutral.
@@RyuSpike Meh I like her more as a hero Robin hood tipe person that does good but can be seen as doing bad , at least when she's young .I like the new version but I would want her to take over vile once again to become the amazing Kim possible stile anti hero criminal mastermind that I think many fans want
@@dragonbullets2763 I'd be more than happy to see this Netflix version of Carmen Ret-conned into being recruited by ACME, then deciding they're no better than VILE with the bureaucracy and red tape, defecting and going on to take over VILE to remake it her own way (the way we all grew to love in the old games and series).
@@cdcastro2503 oooooooooo I LOVE

Carmen in the cartoon was always a hero in her own way. She "adopted" two bit criminals into her vile, taught them her rules and strictly enforced her rules. She had no qualms with dumping you in jail if you messed with her. By doing this, she was actually reducing the overall crime rate and preventing more severe crimes which could actively harm people at large. Sure, there's little doubt more then a few people got fired at first for "negligence", till it reached a point where Carmen was so recognized that being stolen from by her may have even come to be a slight badge of honor. Oh I had something good enough for the world's greatest thief to steal!
So she's basically Red Hood? I see where the red inspiration came from.
Or the Hispanic/Latino Robin Hood
I don’t want Netflix’s Carmen to go bad; I like her as good. I saw the show and she was amazing as a good person. Whoever are the creators of Netflix Carmen San Diego, please don’t make her evil.
She's not!
@@beatm6948 Not going to turn bad on the show or should not be good?
Dont let it go down like voltron
@@guessmyname1246 literal mood
I sooo agree
Where on Earth is Carmen Sandiego was the best one in the spinoffs because of 5 reasons.
1. It had more plotlines and stories to tell including Carmen's unknown past near the end of the series.
2. History and Geography were fun and easy to remember for years to come.
3. Had one of the best villains Maelstrom voiced by the infamous Tim Curry.
4. The theme song was more catchy compared to Rockapella's.
5. And it was one of the many most-watched Fox Kids shows along with Spiderman, X-Men and Eek.
FUN FACT: The characters Zach and Ivy from WOEICS return in the new Netflix series with a different look and attitude compared their previous counterparts. They were originally voiced by soon-be-iconic voices Scott Menville best know as Robin from Teen Titans/TTG and Jennifer Hale who voiced Black Cat from Spiderman TAS and Naomi Hunter from Metal Gear Solid. Also the Chief is voiced by Robert Bumpass who's Squidward in SpongeBob which most might recognize his voice from. Along with so many iconic and legendary voice actors/actresses who were various character's through out the series.
And oh Uncle Phil was the voice of Carmen's father in the 2 Part series finale.
1994SonicDude
Interesting!
I love the Netflix series. I also don’t want her to turn bad. That’s the reason I love the show, she was good
I have the same reasons as you.
I remember the series finale I wish they didn't end it like that
Agree to disagree on Rockapella's theme.
Have no issue with her currently being the protagonist on the new series. She's Lupin-esque, but it fits with previous lore since in the old show she was an Acme Detective before founding Vile. Here Vile might already be established, but we're still in the early days and she's still got her strong moral code. Even if she does join Acme in this series, it's still fine with me. The show can go anywhere it wants, but I see Carmen's ultimate goal being Taking over Vile and reorganizing it to fit her beliefs about crime.
Also, just because I prefer the moralistic Carmen, I object to you referring to her as evil. Just because your a villain or antagonist, doesn't mean you're evil.
Hhh I been scrolling through these comments seeing if anyone else saw the comparison to Lupin!
It's a shame that not as many people seen that show because I think that the aspects missing in Carmen's Netflix series can be found in Lupin. Though both are pretty good series.
@@LitoraLee Yeah, I;ve always been a fan of characters like Lupin or even someone like Captain Cold from DC. Both are professional criminals with very strong morals. Lupin is of course closer to this Carmen becuase of the whole 'stealing from other theives' is a large part of his shtick.
And while Cold isn't the type to steal from other villians, he IS the professional 'we don't kill anyone we're better then that' type. Anybody could just walk into a bank shoot it up and rob it, it takes a true craftsman and professional to get in and out with no casualities and likely never even tripping the alarm.
Honestly the only thing I don't love about the Netflix series in its homaging Lupin is that Chase Devineaux is a FAR far cry from Zennigatta. While Both are obessed with catching their theives, Zennigatta isn't a complete dumbass like Chase is. He's dense, he's comic relief, but he's usually smart enough to realize that Lupin isn't always the biggest fish, and doesn't treat his comtemporaries like they're inferior.
@@SeleneDethly That's the one thing about Lupin I'm a bit iffy on. I think Zenigata is a bit overplayed on his bumblimg cop aspect. Well there's definitely episodes that shows off his skills, there's a lot more episodes that I feel like he's only making a cameo than being a threat. Then again Lulin has like 300+ episodic episodes between 5 seasons, so it's more or less bound to happen.
And while I completely agree with you that the detective in Carmen Sandiego has his ego too far up his *** to think about anything. I liked the dynamics between him n his assistant and the possible story arc he might have if a second season is in the work. Besides, a few times when his ego isn't in the way he actually seems like a decent detective.
omg... i was a contestant in the show "where in time is carmen sandiego" on pbs... i was 12 ... i lost in the 2nd round where you had to put the events in chronological order... i mixed up the last 2 events and the next opponent fixed my mistake and made it to the final round smdh.... but it was a great experience... i met lynn thigpin . i remembered her in the movie "stand by me".. i digress... carmen sandiego was my childhood... i may watch this Netflix series
You'll like it. I was surprised after watching it.
@Will N omg.. I can't remember the villian ... I've only watched the episode I was in once.. I've even scoured CZcams to see if I can find the episode. And they ave some episodes on CZcams , I just haven't found mine
@Will N I agree wholeheartedly... It was a fun experience.. till this day I feel like I would have won. the other contestant lost in the final round. They need another Carmen sandiego game show.
d1chosen973 you’ll like The Netflix series better than that 90s thing
I think I’ve seen that show one time in 2013-14. I didn’t watch the whole thing. I should’ve because I don’t know when the next time I’ll see it
....I kinda like the Netflix version the most....
same here
Netflix Carmen is good but she'll never replace 90s cartoon Carmen for me.
@@wheatboi8255 to each their own
Same here, not to mention the animation quality.
Is there anything that CAN'T be improved with the addition of snarky Bostonians?
I was born in 96, so the tail end of the Carmen craze, but I fell in love with Carmen Sandiego while playing her games (with the learning company). I just watched the Netflix Series and I really like her backstory, even though the ending was a complete plot twist.
Carmen Sandiego was in my math books in 4th grade
Carmen Sandiego was suppose to teach Geography not Math. There's no reason she should be in your math book.
Oh my god- where can I get this book-
@@drag.ul.a No where cause they are lying.
@@numerical25 Actually, there was a Carmen Sandiago math video game released in 1998 called "Carmen Sandiago Math Detective".
@@monikaradzaj7407 Possibly Geometry. Besides he said Book not game.
Carmen sandiego is better off as a hero like I don't want to see Carmen turned into a villain later on in the show I think making her a hero was good idea and I don't know what the movie will be like but I hope it's gonna be good like the Netflix TV show.
Totally agree.
I like that she departed from VILE, and I wouldn't really want to see her return.... I like how she's kinda been giving a hand to ACME. But I'd also like to see her maybe.... be so frustrated with being vilified by Acme that she considers them an enemy. And maybe she considers returning back to VILE or even gets brainwashed. Basically I want ALL the plot and ALL the character arcs... but I know, I know... it's more about the education. :/
Except that Carmen was always the villain
Not anymore
In my opinion I wouldn’t say she’s the hero, nor the villain.
Huge fan of Carmen Sandiego. "Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego" made my weekday afternoons while "Where on Earth is Carmen Sandiego" began my Saturday mornings.
Coincidentally, believe her show is the reason why I love to travel now, Lynne Thigpen RIP
Lynne Thigpen was Lipps in The Warriors.
My favorite moment was finding out in the TV show that she and I share a birthday, being March 1st. I was both excited and frustrated to learn that the Greatest Thief with the best clapbacks and I were born on the same day.
I loved that the V.I.L.E headquarters were located in the *Canary Islands.* Either they did a reference to a 9th ghost island or the HQs are located somewhere within the archipelago.
Hector Manuel
Yes I guess so :)
@@alltnorromOrustarNorrland You're from the islands?
Hector Manuel
No, soy de Suecia. And like most Swedes/Scandinavians I have been there on vacation. (Lanzarote more precise)
Sí. Soy puertorriqueño nunca he ido al archipiélago canario pero desde que aprendí sobre los lazos isleños con mi patria las llevo en mi pensamiento.
Yes. I'm Puerto Rican I have never visited the Canarian archipelago but ever since I found the islander ties with my homeland I have them in my thoughts.
What??? In san borondon? No sé porqué estoy hablando en inglés jajaja, sinceramente no conocía absolutamente nada de esta carmen san diego, es algo americano verdad?
Netflix's Carmen's never turning evil. that is a ridiculous propagation
Dead Meme I wanna know more about the original now that I’ve watched season 1 of the Netflix show.
I know!
You were wrong for *spoilers* 1 episode in season 4!
I marathoned all the four season of 2019 version in just a single day
I remember the first time I ever saw Carmen Sandiego was when the "Where on Earth" series was on QUBO. I remember staying up late at night just to watch that show. It brings back so many memories.
It should be noted that The Learning Company is no longer an independent company and went through several other corporate hands, including Mattel Toys for a little while, and is now part of Houghton Mifflin Harcourt, the trade and textbook publisher (and the ones who worked with Netflix to make the new series happen).
*WHO KNEW ABOUT CARMEN CUZ OF QUBO?!*
Death Score I did I don't rlly like the new version cause I grew up with the old version
My people! I have longed for you all! *cries*
OH GOSH YES
What? When was it on qubo? That channel was my childhood
YES I HAVE FOUND MY FAMILY
I did play the games and love them! My favorite was where in America is Carmen Sandiego. I also have great memories of watching the game show every afternoon with my Sister.
I grew up watching Carmen Sandiego and playing the games (at school). In the games, I thought she was mysterious and cool. The Fox tv show Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego? was such a fun ride! I loved how they disguised education with adventure. But I must say, I love the latest reincarnation from Netflix best. It's a more fleshed out version of Carmen Sandiego. The 90's version will always be special to me, but I'm so glad they found a way to revive and freshen up the franchise for a new generation to enjoy :)
I'm a 2004 child, I remember watching some episodes from 1994 series when I was little. I loved it
They may have found her but there still looking for the famous money launder know as Waldo
ha ha ha. ya know, mime bomb in the new show remindes of Waldo for some reason.
All that laundering you'd think he'd change his clothes...
Waldo x Carmen Sandiego
@@pinknet9811 Yes.
Season 1 - *Where in the world is Carmen Sandiego*
Season 2 - *When in the world is Carmen Sandiego*
Season 3 - *Why in the world is Carmen Sandiego*
Season 4 - *How in the world is Carmen Sandiego*
Literally no ones talking about Finn Wolfhard.
damn i first thought it was a netflix original idea
Lol
My history teacher showed us the 80's game show and now when I watch the new Netflix original, I get flashbacks.
I know this is old, but I swear!! The 1994 TV series changed my life like literally. It got me super invested with Geography and History that to this day, I am still a huge nerd when it comes to those topics. Seriously, I'm the worst in trivia pursuit with those questions. I just found so much interest with the world, and just had a passion for exploring it as a child. This show really means a lot to me. I never played the games since my family was super poor at the time, but I'll never forget those moments where I sat on the floor on Saturday morning watching Zack and Ivy in action. I recorded them all on VHS and watched them over and over again for years.
'Where on Earth is
Carmen Sandiego??
Carmen Sandiego??
Where on Earth could she be??
Where on Earth could she be???'
That's actually just a classical Mozart composition with Carmen-centric vocal lyrics super-imposed over it.
SPOILERS (SEASON 4 CARMEN SANDIEGO 2019-2021):
She did embraced evil but that's just because she was brainwashed.
Watched it on Netflix because I was born in the early 2000’s. I still liked watching “where in the world is Carmen Sandiego” on qubo and thought she was a QUEEN!
I need season 2 nowwww
It's out now.
Now season 3!
@@bluemariomedia8351 yes
Season 4
@@wi5027 yup
The only reason I ever saw the 90's cartoon was because I had basic tv and it was on qubo late at night. Honestly the only reason I had ever watched or seen she-ra or he-man or any other show from the 80's to late 90's or early 2000 is cuz it was on qubo. I miss it at times
I think that effectively that the new Netflix show is writing its own version a story has existed for decades. After all, it had quite a few call backs to the game show and computers i.e. Chase, Jules Argent, Chief, Zach, Ivy, the Sensei, Sara Bellum and quite a few VILE agents, and there were a few Easter eggs as well. I think what we will see is a modern twist on a classic where new fans and old fans can get behind it. In the computer games and game show, it was a clear right and wrong. Carmen was bad, and we, as the good guys, had to stop her. The television show became a bit more complex in a way showing us hints about Carmen's life and her moral code. Carmen was always in the gray area when it came to thefts especially on the tv show. She stole because she enjoyed the challenge of it. The one time the player challenged her to steal something without using technology and Carmen did just because it was an extra challenge. The only time she stole something with a purpose is when she was reunited things from her childhood that was about to be destroyed. Zach and Ivy never mentioned working with Carmen. In fact, they are teenagers to young adults when Carmen is active on Where on Earth is Carmen Sandiego. Chase and Jules were actually her old partners in the computer game Carmen Sandiego Word Detective and Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego, respectively. My first memory of playing Carmen Sandiego is Carmen Sandiego Junior Detective.
I missed the show and the game im mad that they changed her mysterious look .
I want the Netflix series to be continued, maybe as an animated movie. I know about the live-action movie, but it’s not the same. I love the animated Netflix shows
Amazing that they actually implemented this in the final season
I grow up with the computer games and TV shows of Carmen, so I am a big fan, I love the Netflix version of this beloved character I hope she stays with us for a long time.
This show was my childhood, and I’m very happy that she is getting more love and a new show
I grew up as a kid playing Carmen Sandiego in the 90’s, the game shows, cartoons to now finishing the 4th season of Netflix’s series. I loved it! Having her backstory, although retconned, fleshed out was like coming full circle ⭕️ with my love for this iconic character.
I really started to love this animated series
I watched all the Carmen Sandiego cartoon and educational shows when I was a kid. Brings back good memories from the 90’s and I am happy that it’s back!!
The Chief!!! OMG, that brings back so many memories!
I remember watching the the 1994 cartoon almost ever Saturday afternoon and it was amazing if I could ever find the show online I want to show it to my kids.
Here's a whole playlist for you and your kids! czcams.com/video/HKNwBwPx53g/video.html&start_radio=1&list=RDQMDZuGZmTsP1Y
i started playing with the Where in Time is Carmen San Diego remake and am so excited that there is a new tv show!
I like her as a hero to be honest. Really loving the new Netflix show.
Thank you, Versha and NowThis Nerd, for a great review of the Carmen saga.
Where in the World was classic, introduced me to geography.
Where on Earth(cartoon) was a dope follow up, it actually was a well blend sci-fi and history.
I enjoyed playing the game “Where in the World is Carmen San Diego” years ago. It’s no wonder I am following the Netflix series. 😊
Yeah I remember that I got introduced to this through the computer games and the live tv show. My mom got us the the history and math Carmen Sandiago games.
I still remember every theme song to this day!
the second game show was what I remembered from my childhood. I always looked forward to watching it after coming home from school. I now know the reason why there weren't anymore episodes one day...
Played multiple "Carmen" games, and enjoyed the TV show, so much fun (and educational)
Thank you for the like
The Game show.
Loved the Toon.
Miss Lynn Thigpen. Even watched last series she was a part of.
omgggg i loved thiss i’ve never grown up with this but like learning about this now through netflix and learning its history is so amazing! I really enjoyed the video thank you!
Honestly, so cool seeing where its coming from
I used to love watching the game show after school, and now, I'm finding vids here on CZcams and showing them to my kids.
The treasures of knowledge game introduced me to Carmen Sandiego and then I delved into other Carmen related matters and I was immediately hooked. The games, tv shows, etc. shows how diverse the world actually is
I grew up always trying to watch the Cartoon in the 90's. I could never pin down the time when the show was though...but I watched it enough that I love it.
I love that show!
Versha, that was an outstanding, thoughtful and engaging retrospective! I have long been a fan of Rockapella but never really knew the depths of the Carmen franchise. Thanks so much for so smartly sharing the history! :-)
I was a bit too young to remember the TV show (although I did know about it). I grew up with the 90s computer games. They were fun, but the worst thing about them is when you put all the pieces together, find the thief, try to arrest them, but you lose the case because you forgot to click "Issue" on your warrant! If you've played the games, you know how defeating and frustrating that is! Everything else goes right, but without a warrant your arrest is unauthorized, and the thief goes free!
Aww man. I love the Carmen Sandiego games. I played Where in Time is Carmen Sandiego so often I still could play that game from memory. They were educational games that were fun and the series really means a lot to me
It was one of my favorite show to watch as a kid
One of my favorite games
I grew up playing Where in the World and USA is Carmen Sandiego! It got me into loving History and Geography!
I was really young when "Where in the World" aired, but I was exactly the right age to totally eat up "Where in Time". Even though it was only on for a couple of years, I have such fond memories of that show. It's amazing how much production went into a children's game show--the live action intro where Carmen summons the villains each time, the really cool set design with tons of neat lighting and smoke effects, all the cool graphics that were WAY ahead of their time, and that pulse pounding bonus round where they had to make their way through each of the time gates. I think it deserved to be a just a little more than a footnote in this video :P But overall, really cool recap!!
My dad used to be a big fan of Carmen Sandiego and he was the one who told me that I should check out the Netflix reboot. I love it!
The show premièred on my 13th birthday in 1991. As for my "favorite part", let's just say that hearing the bass singer in the original Rockapella flipped a switch in me that day and I realized something fundamental about myself.
Now *this* is the video I was looking for.
One of the best theme songs ever!
Oh my....my whole childhood right here
the new cartoon show is EPIC!! i have very fond memories as a child playing the deluxe game and watching the show!!!
OMG!!!!! I was so young I didn't really remember that clip until you showed it MEMORIES 🤯
Where In Time was my JAM!
My childhood crush😪 the pain cuts like a knife
I played the original game as a kid! MY ALL TIME FAVORITE!!
I watched the PBS game show as a child!
Now, Kids These Days(TM) can enjoy her as well!
I am curious about it, considering how times have changed over the past few decades.
80s kid 👧🏽 Here! I got into the WITWICS PBS game show in 92. ♥️ I played the PC game when it was available to my middle school in 93.
I loved the Netflix series very similar to Kim possible which was a childhood favourite. Netflix was my first of hearing about her, but interesting learning more. Once when I was watching it my mum recognised the name when they said it in nexflix's opening.
I watched Netflix first season and loved it. I hope they make more!
I've heard of this but I never actually knew what it was. looks pretty cool
I love that show.
I'd like to see a Carmen Sandiego VR game. Maybe follow the same detective structure as the original computer games, but instead of just getting the clues for the next destination, put in some hidden object elements. For example, maybe when you search a former hideout of the crook you're trying to find, you have to find a scrap of the flag of the next country they're going to. Or maybe pieces of the flag of their final destination.
Another option might be to put elements from games like LA Noire so that when you're interrogating a witness, you have to notice when they're nervous. That plus finding a hidden VILE logo will indicate that you're talking to a henchman. In that case, the player would want to be more aggressive vs interviewing an innocent bystander who is afraid of being hunted down by VILE.
If they want to keep the new audience (like me) keep her good. If you want to go back to her roots, have her defect and become bad (like maybe ACME does something to her friends, or they put her on a wanted list and she's officially being labeled as a criminal and that puts her on edge until she finally gets caught while trying to capture the real villain. so then she goes bad because of ACME treating her like trash) but then realizes (once again) that being bad is really bad for everybody and she becomes good again even if the world sees her as a criminal
I love this new Carmen. First off it's nice she's portrayed as a very young adult, Zak and Ivy are her friends and partners, and she's good. I'd hate to imagine the series ending with her becoming a thief like in her previous incarnations, especially after all they've been through. She's better off as a Robin Hood esque thief. Steal from Baddies and help the Good.
Played the games, but loved the game show the most!
I was first introduced to Carmen through the old animation series. Can't remember much of it now but I though it was cool. The Netflix reboot was very engaging. I'm waiting for the next season.
I love her as an anti hero better tbh
This is so cool. I never knew the show had so much history behind it.
I need Season 2!
I used to play this game in the late 80s and early 90s. Haha sound old now I know.. Anyway Geography was always my favorite subject in school. I still love geography though haha
loved this!!!
