Greatest show of our youth, team.

YES!!!

random countries

Uzguacastan.....?

Being a musician, these guys are pretty much my greatest influence.

We actually watched this everyday in college.

It's amazing what can entertain a stoned college kid in the middle of the day.

i could never catch her in the video game. i would always go someplace and they'd be like oh she was here but she just left.

Is this a rhetorical question?

DO IT ROCKAPELLA!!!!

the last round SUCKED, they never made it all

Bonus Round
In the bonus round, the winner was given the chance to catch Carmen Sandiego herself. If the contestant was successful, he/she won a trip to any location in the continental United States, expanded to anywhere in North America after the first season.*

After the contestant wrote down their desired trip destination, they received a phone call from the crook who was just arrested. The crook gave the general location of Carmen Sandiego, one of five continents (North America, South America, Europe, Africa, or Asia) or the United States (used only in seasons 1 & 2 and then replaced by North America afterwards). The Chief then gave a list of fifteen possible locations either countries, capital cities, bodies of water, or national parks (all four used in Season 3 and beyond), on that continent (or states or state capital cities if the United States was used). Then the contestant was presented with a map that covers the floor of the studio, with dots marking the cities, squares marking national parks, and arrows marking bodies of water.

As host Lee read the locations, the player had to place a marker with a red flashing siren light on the correct location on the map. If the contestant placed the marker on the correct location, the light flashed, the siren went off and the player was given the next location. If he or she was wrong, the player is given one more chance to move the marker. After two incorrect guesses, another location was read.

If within 45 seconds (60 in the first few episodes when using an Asia map, this was dropped after the first season), the player could successfully identify 7 locations on the map (8 after the first season), the player caught Carmen Sandiego and won the trip and $500 spending cash. Otherwise, the player earns $10 for each correct location and a consolation prize. After the game, a newspaper headline graphic is shown:

I remember seeing the final rounds that used the USA and thinking how easy it was and how bad I felt for the kids who got Asia and Africa.

Asia was always a bitch.

Who/What in the World is Carmen Sandiego?

The kids who were stuck with Africa could only ever get Madagascar.

loved the computer game in like 5th and 6th grade

and Oregon Trail right before that

When i worked at a call center a few years ago i spent hours playing Oregon Trail. There are few things funnier than reading "Nutjob died of scurvy"

My mom and I were talking about this show the other day. For some reason the theme song popped into my head and I was going around the house singing it. I loved that show.




The computer games were great. I remember either our 5th or 6th grade history class going into the computer lab to play them....good times.

I saw Rockapella in concert in Boston when I was about 11. Definitely the best concert I have ever been to.

rockapella justifies abortion

i was a fan, i would possibly even buy DVDs if there were some
