Carmen Sandiego

It's like a blend of Kim Possible and Leverage, can't wait for season 2

As someone who enjoys Spy thievery espionage type stuff like James bond, sly I found Carmen Sandiego quite enjoyable, I feel like it could be a big hit because it's very high quality and well produced. The music is excellent and the opening is incredible. Carmen is a really likable protagonist, Player is cool, and the action is well choreographed, and at the end of the season the mystery and cliff hangers make you want more. however what holds the show back is i'm not quite sure what demographic it's trying to reach it constantly shifts from wanting to be some what mature to doing something more in line for a regular kids show would do. Its really weird after the becoming Carmen sandiego episodes the first 4 or so episodes are a lot more "kiddie" while the more mature story lines of the back 3 episodes of the season seem more mature. I personally think the more mature episodes fit the show better but that my opinion. I also really don't like Zack or Ivy they just don't seem to fit the tone of the show, and come across as annoying comic relief that I dont think the show really needs; however luckily there characters were reduced a lot in the back half of the season so that's was good. Which is probably why the back half of the season was better. So my verdict is It's a really good start with glimpses of greatness and in the future I hope the show continues on the more mature route because I think that's where it shines, and either Ditch Zack and Ivy or write them to be better characters because there honestly just annoying comic relief

Like most, I was a little skeptical when I saw that they were rebooting Where On Earth is Carmen Sandiego. With the animation I was sure it would be a flop. But it isn't! I'm so glad that they made tweaks here and there and that it is a breath of fresh air. I see this as a prequel of the TV series in the 90's because of all that has happened in 10 episodes. I think it does deserve some work because all of the men are dumb and crave food while the women are smart and on point. While I do support gender equality, I feel like they should make at least SOME of the male protagonists/antagonists better. The design is flawless and I love the new music for the theme song. Overall, I love it and I hope they make a season 2!

A femme fatale/complex heroine from Buenos Aires, international travel, action and suspense - what's not to like? Not surprisingly, it's a slightly bigger hit with Sienna (as compared to, say, Avatar, which the kiddos seem to enjoy equally); but we all love the Boston sidekicks and their accent. I vaguely remember the computer game from the 80s (did I play it on my Apple IIe?), but there doesn't seem to be any resemblance.

First watched - 2019-2020. Update: season 4 watched 2021, Seb didn't like that she temporarily worked for VILE, but it all worked out at the end of the season!

Show is definitely bing worthy and also fun for adults. Can't wait for season 2 (Netflix ordered 20 episodes, so 11 more to come).
