Haha yeah that's the theme song, awesome, I can't believe some of you guys actually remember that show.  The little segments on the TV were this one line drawing of a guy who would walk along and stuff would happen to him, then he'd get pissed off, it was rad.  Pretty much every PBS kid's show was great up until Carmen Sandiego & Bill Nye, I hated both of those hardcore (Bill Nye was just a poor man's Beakman's World).

:evil: WHERE IN THE WORLD IS CARMEN SANDIEGO WAS GREAT!!!!!!!! :evil:

great music, great hosting, stupid contestants - everything you need for a great game show. I'm just sad they don't do it anymore.  :(

But seriously, i would've smoked any of those kids. Even on Africa.  :twisted:

I have to agree with GUTS about Carmen Sandiego. Except, I loved the a capella band that did the theme song. Yeah, it's dorky, but it rules. The name of the band escapes me right now, but it was something like "Rockapella", IIRC.

TRIVIA: The female DJ from "The Warriors" (the one who addresses all the "boppers" in the intro of the movie) had a big role in Carmen Sandiego. She might have also had a lesser role in Square One, but my memory is hazy on that detail.

I've been meaning to watch The Warriors for like the past year, but just haven't gotten around to it yet. My bros love that movie, so I'll probably watch it sometime when my bro comes home next week. I've seen the trailer though and it looks great :) .

Adding PCE console specific layer on top of that, makes for an interesting challenge (no, not a reference to Ys II).

I got one Christmas present early and am expecting another one soon.  My family has just decided to give me my presents during the holiday season rather than at Christmas because our anxiety just can't keep us away! :P

What I got:

[ul][li]A Lifecam VX-3000 webcam for all my online cam needs. :wink:[/li][/ul]
What I wanna get:

[ul][li]A music CD tower for 100+ CDs because the CD shelves in my entertainment center are getting very full and are in desperate need of a sorting[/li][/ul]

Keranu, what the hell are you waiting for? Go watch the movie! NOW! You're missing out on one of the coolest movies ever made! 8)

Sorry, but I don't see your library card on the books of Ys.  Now, RETURN THEM TO ME!!!
