Carmen Sandiego
By Sophia Fineza
Carmen Sandiego returns in a way that she’s never been seen before. With an origin story, friends and foes, and an inside look at her “crimes”, this new series is so much more than just a game show. The plotline is easy to follow, the animation is stunning, and it maintains its educational quality. Kids and parents will definitely enjoy it.
logline: A fresh perspective, a fresh story. Carmen Sandiego is reborn as the same thief- but this time she steals from the evil syndicate VILE while trying to piece together her broken past.
My favorite characters:
Gina Rodriguez as Carmen Sandiego - i loved her backstory! it was really cool to watch her adventures from a kid all the way to the adult we’re all familiar with.
Fun Fact: Netflix just released Carmen Sandiego: To Steal or Not To Steal, which is an interactive episode in which you can guide Carmen on one of her adventures.
