Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego? is an educational kids game show that aired on PBS Kids. It's based on the hit educational computer game for the Apple IIGS system by BroderBund Software Inc. The contestants (AKA the Gumshoe) must travel around the world to search for the evil criminal lady named Carmen Sandiego.
Why It Rocks
- Several clue segments in round 1.
- The slide show segment before 2.
- Phone conversation Carmen Sandiego and today's villain.
- When a gumshoe completes the map round, sirens and horns blared, and the newspaper headline reads "(Gumshoe name) Captures Carmen!" (In Season 4 onward, they would have Carmen behind bars).
- "Disturbing the Heavenly Peace" (First aired on October 5, 1992) was the only episode to have a Celebrity playing with a gumshoe.
- In Round 2 of "The Gateway Getaway", the player got the Loot, the Warrant, and the Crook, all in one turn and play 500 dollars bound.
V.I.L.E. Qualities
- When a gumshoe fails to complete the bonus round 45 seconds (or 60 seconds if Asia Map is used), The Newspaper headline would read "CARMEN ESCAPES AGAIN!" And in Season 4, The headline image will have Carmen disappear and leaving with just a white silhouette.
