I miss Carmen Sandiago. She is one of the core pieces of 90's kid culture. Carmen Sandiago is instantly recognizable. Between her incredible sense of style, her frelling brilliant theme song, and her enjoyably eclectic sense of adventure (I mean first, she steals landmarks, and second, she only does so in order to match wits with the people chasing her, never because she actually wants the things she steals), she is a villain that everyone loved.

I played several of her games as a kid (I don't remember them all, but I do know that one of them was Where in Space is Carmen Sandiago). I loved them all. I also remember that she had two relatively successful shows, from her animated adventures to the trivia game show.

I actually feel that Carmen Sandiago could make a comeback (in fact, I keep waiting for her to show up in an episode of Castle, she would fit in so perfectly). Though just an adventure game/quiz show, I think they could be restructured and updated to provide a lot of enjoyable fun even today.
