This Master Thief returns with a new goal in ‘Carmen Sandiego’
I can’t say I was a huge fan of Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego growing up. I will admit that theme song was quite catchy though. When I heard a new Carmen Sandiego cartoon was coming out I was looking forward to it. I was able to get screeners for some of the episodes from season 1 and this is what I thought of them.
You can read the plot for Carmen Sandiego season 1 here:
Carmen is a modern day Robin Hood traveling the globe and stealing from V.I.L.E. and giving back to its victims. Carmen is publicly perceived as a criminal by most law enforcement agencies – correction, make that a master criminal due to the sheer scale and theatricality of her heists. We will follow her escapades and get to determine not only where but WHO in the world is Carmen Sandiego?
I was very impressed by Carmen Sandiego season 1. It was nice to learn about this characters past, and how they got on the path of becoming a master thief. This show wants to show there is more to Carmen than just thievery, and tells a bit about what her new mission happens to be. I think this is the first show I have seen in a while that has something for all ages to enjoy.
Carmen Sandiego season 1 premieres this Friday on Netflix. You can follow this show on Facebook and Twitter.
