[@jeremyriley1238]

While the Where In The World game show (which was still airing when this show premiered) I preferred more because of the humor and Rockapella, this show gets my respect. It has a good mix of action and adventure, comedy, and education.

[@sarahcahlik0u8me]

I always thought he introduction sums up Carmen's persona in the best possible way: she purposefully gives the kids hints about her next robbery, waits for them to appear, and then steals the goods at the last minute only to play a practical joke on them. Mozart's music, even in the opening credits, is educational!

[@Raximus3000]

She is a criminal who wants to play this game because everything seems to easy to her.

[@muigokublack6487]

@@Raximus3000She steals things because she can. The idea of air-tight security is just a challenge to her.

[@BYERE]

The thing I love most is that they never displayed Carmen as being malicious. There’s even times in the series where she’s scared that one of the detective kids are about to get hurt. She might be a bored super-genius, playing these theft games on a world-wide (and later, time-wise) scale, but she still has a heart and doesn’t want to see anyone physically get hurt by it all.

and isnt it weird how were told we never had any cool and interesting female characters? weird b/c we all grew up with a bunch of them. the 90s/y2k era of cartoons and tv shows had so many awesome female characters unlike today's who are all terribly written and lack any feminine charm

[@wingspantt]

This show was cheesy as hell, but I grew to greatly respect Carmen Sandiego. She had so much style and panache. She enjoyed the cat and mouse game and the opportunity it gave her to continually prove her genius to the detectives who always THOUGHT they had her figured out. A 10/10 role model for future white collar criminals.

[@7Seraphem7]

While at the same time having very strict standards that she always stuck to. It was really all about the game to her, she never wanted anyone to get hurt or made things personal. Plus, most of the time she wanted to be foiled, she wanted the detectives to prove themselves, and if there was a true threat, she would waste no time in joining with them and reminding them why she was ACME's number one detective ever.

[@carmensantiago2547]

This opening perfectly exemplifies Carmen as a character, she deliberately leaves them clues to her next heist, waits for them to show up, and then gets away with the loot at the last second anyways just to screw with them.

[@Pre114]

The music is composed by Mozart, the original song is called Singt dem grossen Bassa Lieder.

[@Yellow_guy2468]

12 years later I still think they do lmao

[@Dachimotsu]

Well, I have some good news and bad news. Both news are that they did.

[@bjsdemon]

@@Dachimotsu Defunctland actually did a video on the show and it's unlikely that they'll bring it back. A lot of the geography contained in the live show is no longer relevant. And while these episodes contain the note at the end warning that facts were accurate at the time of recording, it doesn't mean kids will pay attention and will still list the now incorrect answers as correct. Even this animated series will have its inaccuracies. The only spin off that's likely to still be accurate to this day is the sequel to the game show, Where In Time, as that show deals with history more than geography. The only spin off that's 100% accurate is the most recent one on Netflix as that was only released a few years ago. I think that follows along more like a Choose Your Own adventure

[@TuffyTheRabbit]

Nah, Carmen Sandiego was on a whole other level of awesome. Imagine being the world's greatest thief, and having fun with that fact cause you know your ass can't be caught. She treats heists like they're birthday parties for her, not only that, but she got two kids always running after her, only for her to meet them at the end and go "Congrats, see y'all." and then just vanish with grace and style. At the same time it's also really wholesome to understand that she's an antagonist.. sure, but she isn't necessarily evil. At the end of the day, yes. She's a criminal, but she hasn't killed someone, or laid her hands and injured someone. She just steals, and gets to have fun with it.

[@MsKekeChannel]

Now I loved this show and watched it all the time in my youth, but even as a child I found it pretty unbelievable that a group of kids could hold their own against world class thieves & criminals. I really want them to revive Carmen Sandiego with a live action movie. Just don't screw it up Hollywood.

[@MimicoFlorido]

I found the same as a child. But I don't think they could. If they could, they would have catched her. What they managed was barelly because she allowed them.

[@carminesanders2759]

MsKekeChannel I wish I could thumb up your comment ten times over. I found that pretty neat when I discovered there was a cartoon to this show. ACME must train these kids very well to go up against Carmen and her henchmen. I don't agree with the movie thing however. There is a movie in the works but I don't believe it is going to happen. JLo wants to play Carmen and to do that she has to get the rights to Carmen Sandiego and I don't think the company's going to do that. Carmen Sandiego name is still their "cash cow" so to speak and they're not going to give it up easily.

[@fayneblackheart]

MsKekeChannel i used to watch the series and play the game. i found it one day and watched on the Hub and i couldnt get enough of it

they would totally screw it up. They would make Carmen the bad guy and it would be like the witics game show where she's cackling and evil.

[@inusberard5848]

Valerie Sanders Well if they keep true to Carmen's character they may make her into a character like Kaito Kid from Detective Conan. Helps you catch the bad guy just to steal the loot. Or gives up the loot so they can get away. Like Carmen saves a kidnapping victim, she'd do it because, deep down, she'll do the right thing.

When she's riding a hoverbike through the desert, "I hope you like the taste of sand in your mouth." 3. When she rocket hang-glides off the Statue of Liberty, "Whatev's. I didn't want it anyway."

They had no reason to go as hard as they did on the animation and cinematography for this opening, but I love that they did. Also, Carmen is such an amazing thief that she managed to steal an immaterial thing like a song, and do so on a meta-level on a higher plane of existence. She, a character in a show, stole a piece of classical music to be used in the real world as the theme song for said show. Amazing.

[@Mikewee777]

LoneSoul06 , in the video game ; she was obsessed with Egypt.

[@rinisheilds1326]

I am a hardcore, born again Carmen Sandiego fan at 28 years of age. Forgive me but I quite enjoyed her during this time because she was mischievous. Her henchmen had gag names that made you laugh, and they stole things that in real life could never be stolen. I think that is what made the games and the cartoon so enjoyable! I really resent The Learning Company for turning the games back into what they used to be. I feel like when Broderbund did it, she had strict standards, was mischievous, cared about what happened to National Landmarks and she has a conscience. It gave her more character. I honestly do NOT like how she was portrayed in "Where in Time is Carmen Sandiego" because I don't see her as THAT evil. She's supposed to just be "Anti-hero" I.e. she just steals things because she can and she's bored.

[@inusberard3112]

Exactly, she's what is termed in the thief as "the artist". She doesn't steal things for money. No, she steal things to prove they CAN be stolen. You could put the most sophisticated security system to guard something and she'd steal the security system with a note that says, "Please, this is ME we're talking about."

[@SanguineDarkfire]

“… stole things that in real life could never be stolen.” Yo, don’t go challenging Carmen, next thing you know she’ll steal Buckingham Palace just to prove you wrong lol

+Dan Troll I doubt it as Captain America is a super soldier which she has never faced. If its a fight Captain would wipe the floor with her and she wont outrun a topnotch shield. The red skull is vastly above carmen san diego yet he still loses so I highly doubt the super soldier doesn't stand a chance. He's defeated a historical full strength army the Nazis. She gets past humans with no gadgets or special abilties, And mixed feelings towards arresting her. All those are thrown out the window when Captain America is pursuing her.

[@ArtaherDuron]

+Dan Troll Well keep in mind that Carmen - Tech was always years ahead and better than those of whom was after her. So one would assume it would be no different with Shield. Also on more than one occasion she had saved someone or has done something heroics to make you not want to take her in.

I got to learn about capital cities, landmarks, ancient history, Antarctica, the pyramids etc. From there I went on to the X-files, which really expanded my mind (even if a lot of it was entertainment over fact) and went on to research so many topics for thousands of hours over the years. You'll never see much of the truth on a TV screen, so get researching! Anyway, that's my nostalgic trip.

People hating on the new one are definitely missing out on a good series, they just need to be open-minded to a new experience without trying to compare it to the old one. It's not meant to be like this show - and that's perfectly fine. After all, isn't the point of the Carmen Sandiego franchise that we have to be open to learning and experiencing new things and new places? This one, however, is still fantastic, and honestly I think I want to go back and watch it after finishing the new one.

+Nicholas Svitak Which is weird, because in the games, she was from Moscow.

+Sephiroth7734 There's some irony for you.

One of my favorite cartoons featuring The World's Greatest Thief.

[@IsraelNowIsraelForever]

The instrumental part of Chorus Of The Janasseries by Wolfgangus Amadeus Mozart was used for the theme music.

[@IsraelNowIsraelForever]

Carmen Sandiego was gorgeous. The scenes of her driving are sexy.

Shes was in San Diego the WHOLE FUCKING TIME

That face when your video from 2006 is higher quality than the "high quality" version someone posted later...

[@DetectiveRonSperrow]

+OuroborosChoked I know right. Someone on the other video just posted that.

I enjoyed watching this as a kid. I never knew until now that the song originated from 'W. A. Mozart - Die Entfuhrung Aus Dem Serail Ein Deutsches Krie' - 1782

[@ericsanders3210]

you made sound like that was came right out of the cartoon series

[@Thijs-Kuiken]

why is nobody talking about the theme song?? It's awesome! 😀

[@raventhequeen3371]

I just loved this show because I could couch🛋️ travel from the comfort of my own home.

[@theninjaweirdo]

classical music, history, culture, it's really amazing how much good stuff they put into this show and still made it fun to watch.

[@StarkMaximum]

It's not often a cartoon's theme song spends the entire time telling you how badass the _antagonist_ is.

[@WanderlustAQW]

i grew up with this...nostaliga bomb...

[@owenpeterson]

When I first saw this, I instantly recognized that the Chief looked so much like Egon from the Real Ghostbusters. Maybe that was what the animators were going for. Both shows were made by DiC.

[@searchjesus2123]

This was my childhood.

[@ingonyama70]

The only show to have an adapted Mozart tune as a theme song. AND IT IS AWESOME.

[@maytalacedo20]

This show was fantastic and got me invested as a kid. 😁

[@renegadeguardian]

Still better than the Netflix series.

[@fallenstar4383]

I watch this every afternoon on my sister house or my dad house I miss my childhood

[@alexisevelyn5290]

That one episode where they ALMOST had her- I was so stressed out😭

[@juliehudson3556]

I remember watching an episode of this

[@darkecofreak23]

Between this and the game show theme, I was such a geography nerd in my Primary School days.

[@hateUmankind]

0:54 i don't like where carmen is landing considering on that direction

[@ricardo.compere8504]

Goodness gracious

[@theendofsorrow3460]

🤣🤣🤣

[@ScribStat]

Someone: How many times did you listen to this? Me: Yes.

[@comicbookfan2297]

Wow the animation in this show is top notch

[@NateSean]

If we're approaching it from a logical standpoint, then the Tower of Pisa doesn't have a lot of black market value. Carmen does what she does purely because she can, which doesn't have to make sense to the rest of us. Also, in the story, she is an orphan who probably felt she didn't get a lot of attention as a child. Going to such incredible lengths for attention and the validation of two kids, whom she has shown to have respect for, is probably enough motivation for her.

[@anchaolingyi2608]

The landscapes/BGs in this intro are just ethereal!

[@omd2533]

I see the Netflix series but didn't know that was so old

[@samusaran181818]

I would watch this show every Saturday morning. I could NEVER figure out the clues. They had some tough questions, especially the live game show. I just wanted to answer one question LOL

[@meena-fs3lt]

This show was my absolute childhood! That theme song used to get stuck inside my head for hours everytime it came on TV
