....is Carmen Sandiego??

I must have watched that show every day after school.

Hah, I remember that. I never saw a pair of kids win the final challenge thing at the end, with the map...

That is, if we're talking about the same show.

The loot.
The warrant.
The crook.

And remember, "Do it, Rockapella!"

From what I know there were three shows based on the Carmen Sandiego PC games.

There was the game show "Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego," which was later spin-off into another (not as good) game show for "Where in Time is Carmen Sandiego".

Then there was also the cartoon "Where on Earth is Carmen Sandiego"

Yea SML, that's the one I pretty much watched.

I did used to have the PC game, too. But when you start to memorize all the answers after a while, it's no fun.

I had Where in Time. Personally, I had more fun exploring the 5, very simple floors of HQ then playing the game.

Also, my cousin had a remake of Where in the World that was made in the mid-90s that had upgraded graphics and play control. It also had Lynne Thigpen reprising her role as the cheif.

Heh, I remember one episode where Greg Lee snuck into the Chief's office and did his own spoof Acme Triangle:
"My left hand. My right hand. Thumbs."

And remember, "Vigilance. Intelligence. Courage."
