@@TherealRNOwwfpooh Same can be said with Fun House and Fox's Fun House, it was a Game Show with Children as contestants and the Fun House was challenging, yet a lot of fun, same with its spinoff College Mad House

This was the first time in the series Carmen had been successfully captured. But clearly ACME was never in charge of her trial or anything other than tracking her down to arrest her because she's out by the very next episode. By contrast in the original book series you capture Carmen in the first book and she stays captured for several sequels.
@@jeremyriley1238Then let’s say she cloned herself. And all the clones disguise as other people. Once a clone is captured, another clone reveals herself.
I think this was the first episode I ever saw. I remember that Godzilla impression (whoa!) and I know the first one I saw had Eartha Brute as the thief.
Eartha Brute is my favorite V.I.L.E. Villains, she's like the Muscle Bound Version of Marge Simpson I 💜 the way Rockapella sings that Eartha Brute Song
It's a huge shame they made her sound idiotic and dumb. Why couldn't they make her sound very seductive and alluring and have Jean hit on the male gumshoes?
@@danaabel1049😆Two rules: Never ask how they are made... the sausage or the puns. In this case, Alsace... with a lot of sauerkraut... 2:21 Alsace returns as a location in a later episode, "In Casa Emergency, Call 911"... Merci, Danke.
The snowball comes in the season 2 episode, What's What With Watts, and it had Greg chasing Sean with a snowball. But, that's after the clue skit involving "Oh no, it's her, The Mysterious Woman"
I guess Josh got confused when Greg told him to use strategy. However, these early episodes were likely filmed before most players had ever seen an episode where they had to go in order, since the two pilot episodes didn't have that rule, so I could certainly understand why a kid would be confused.
This episode was taped later in the season cause of the Africa map and the chief wearing her usual red outfit instead of the green one from the pilots and early episodes. But it is forgivable since josh didn’t know he would go out of order picking that last location. But, the chief was right about where Nessie would be stashed.
@@MegaZeldafan1 It's postulated that Nessie (which is a SHE, not a HE, like everyone thought in this particular episode) and Japanese's own atomic lizard Godzilla (the kaiju "King of Monsters") would be of similar species (although one is a camera shy sea serpent & the other is basically a giant lizard with atomic breath stuck in an iceburg).
@@MegaZeldafan1 Yeah. That would explain the Godzilla impression that one Gumshoe gave when the case involves brick-dumb Eartha Brute (reworked into Coach Brunt for the 2018-2020 Netflix reboot of the _Carmen Sandiego_ franchise) serpent-napping Nessie.
Actually she addressed the gumshoes by name in Season 1, when the Chief's office was part of the set. In Seasons 2-5, the office was in a different studio, and the Chief's bits were taped in advance. I would have liked it better if she continued to name the gumshoes.
@@antonspivack1436 It makes sense she was an actress that got a fair amount of work and had to be in California or wherever to do her films and tv shows outside of this show.
It was used throughout Season 1’s Photo Recon slideshow by Chief. I cannot find the name of the musical piece, but it does sound familiar. I don’t remember the Season 1 episodes, so it’s nice to see them here.
That didn't happen. Only the first season limited the trip to anywhere in the Lower 48, and in 14 episodes the bonus round was won. None of them had a player choose Canada.
The only ones who could choose Canada were the gumshoes who were part of the last round of the show once it had upgraded the grand prize to anywhere in North America, rather than just the lower 48 states.
The snowball is a perfect prelude to the season 2 episode, What's What With Watts when Greg chases Sean with the snowball, and that's after the skit involving "Oh no, it's her, The Mysterious Woman"
Perhaps there’s been a misunderstanding regarding Where In The World is Carmen Sandiego?. It’s a game show where different stories are used to have fun with the contestants participating on the show. If Carmen were to have been arrested and have to go through a real trial it wouldn’t be fun.
@@NYChica23 But Nessie is a SHE, not a HE. People just assume her gender, because she's camera shy & keeps herself elusive, just like the crime queen Carmen herself. The only thing is, Nessie just stays in one place, whereas Carmen globetrots around the world.
manlyone23 Hey, cut him some slack. Sure, he revealed all three in the wrong order, giving Tetsuo the easy win, but it's nothing to get mad at. I bet a lot of kids make similar mistakes.
First ever Carmen capture & it was on my favorite bonus round map!
I love this show!
Wow I'm so glad I was apart of this era
Me: Gets excited when the last question is in my home state.
Also Me: loses it when Greg pronounces Spokane Spo-cane.
Thanks for finding the whole episode, Anton.

And she was captured on the infamous Africa map.

Always enjoy seeing Color Me Badd sing on this show.
That's Rockapella.
I saw this when it was new but I hadn't seen it in 25 years
LOL same here! I remembered the dozen of so "Loch Ness" terms that Rockapella used LOL
Gosh Greg Lee You're a Good Host
Yep, when he saw that he was going the right way to Madagascar, he called out his name, feeling he was gonna win. Good stuff!
I love that little gem. 👌😊
Yeah! You BET he is.
100% Correct, Way Better than Kevin Shinick who hosted Where in TIme?
@tnawcwvictoria The right question is, "When In Time?"

Yes, it is.

and she also has hair like the bride of Frankenstein.

It's a huge shame they made her sound idiotic and dumb. Why couldn't they make her sound very seductive and alluring and have Jean hit on the male gumshoes?
Benjamin Harrington .......yes.
It's weird to think that the first time someone caught Carmen was also one of the few times anyone won on the Africa map.
Greg Lee says that it's a very rough map, I agree, I would get lost in Africa, I only know a few. Madagascar in the easist one to find
The Godzilla Kid got Carmen Sandiego!
WHERE IN THE WORLD IS Carman sandiego
We still haven't caught CARMEN SAN DIEGO
24:00 just love hearing it
love the rockapella song at 13:56
For those who are wondering from the 1st clue, "34 kg." is approx. 75 LBS.

How did Eartha Brute lose all that weight after she drank up all the water from Loch Ness and just before she kidnapped Nessie the Loch Ness Monster?
and she dranked that dirty water where fish have..........you know. yuck!
