Carmen Sandiego Thoughts

Ok, mostly really random, and I know I don't really get on Tumblr, anymore....

But, I've recently rewatched "Carmen Sandiego" on Netflix, mostly for a fanfic of mine that's now being rewritten. I totally thought there had been a season 5, but then again, I am an idiot, lol!

I gotta say, though...(spoiler alert for those of you who have not seen the show, yet) the last half of season 4 really disappointed me. Personally, I hate it when creators or show writers decide to just make the main character evil, especially out of the blue. I never grew up or watched the original "Carmen Sandiego", but I know that in the original, I think Carmen was evil. For the most part, anyway. Even so, in this reboot of "Carmen Sandiego", I didn't like what they did with her in the last half of season 4. That was just...very strange, and like I said, I personally don't like when main characters just suddenly turn evil.

I also didn't like that V.I.L.E. was so easy to take down when they're supposed to be...what, the most powerful evil organization on the planet? They had like, over a hundred operatives or something, and even the faculty members were supposed to be pretty powerful! Not just physically (Coach Brunt), but also mentally (Maelstrom). I feel like Cleo and Bellum would've been a combo of both, especially with Bellum's tools. Out of the four of them, I would've thought Maelstrom and Brunt to be the hardest to take down. But instead, every faculty member (except Shadowsan, of course) were so easily caught? What?!

Carmen being evil was just...pointless. It didn't even last very long, and there was nothing shown for it, other than a random time-skip. I just don't think it was very necessary.

About the Gray/Carmen thing.... I'm not much of a shipper, and I never shipped those two, together, anyway (honestly, if anything, Carmen and Julia being a thing would make more sense, but...ship whoever, I guess...just don't war over it, please). So, I'm not sure how to really feel about that, other than to me, it was just weird.

And if I remember, correctly, from the last time I watched the show's finale, Carmen just up and split with everyone? Ivy, Zack, Player...did Shadowsan go with her? And what about Carmen's mom? They never found her! Did they?! I don't quite remember....

Overall, I do think the last half of season 4 was very rushed (no thanks to Netflix probably pounding on the show's door to hurry things up or whatever...because it's Netflix), and I also think that yeah, there should have been a season 5, and made that the last season. I don't think I'll be rewatching season 4, again, if I'm being completely honest. I mean, first half of it was fine, and I liked the episode with Ivy/Dash Haber (I do ship them, sue me). But other than that, I think I'll be rewriting things for my fanfic or something.

Some people say that season 3 was pretty useless, but I don't know, I liked it. To me, the different shift in tone was nice, and giving the V.I.L.E. faculty a lighter side made me laugh. I don't know, maybe I'm just easily amused by that kind of thing. I don't really see anything wrong with the 3rd season...but, that's probably just me.

Anyway, those are my thoughts for today. If you agree with me, cool. If you don't, cool but please don't get at me for my opinions and feelings. Please, respect them.

Later!

this scene. this FUCKING scene confirms without a doubt that carmen sandiego is a sword gay. praise be to carmen

[seventytwoowls]

Honestly the conversation where Player and Julia were both infodumping to Carmen was so cute??? Julia had such big sister energy? And Player didn’t get annoyed and let her talk and she was clearly happy to not have someone like Chase on the call??? Iconic

i'm gonna say it... i loved the finale... it wrapped the core story up and answered questions while still leaving it ambiguous amd leaving us with fond memories...

[chaoticgoodcrow]

maybe Carmen isn't with the others yet because she wants to fully recover the rest of her memories before rejoining them! and spend more time with her mom, and teach her protégés? like a healing break for each other to work things through and grow, because they all have trauma to work through, and I bet Carmen feels bad about what she did while incapacitated ;w; and then the Red Team will join up again later on and keep having adventures together!!

THE ONLY REASON SHE DOESN'T THINK IT A TRAP IS BECAUSE JULES SAID IT A CERTAIN WAY SKDVSLVD

carmen sandiego season 4 spoilers ahead!!

anyways i just binge-watched the season and may i say i think the show ended pretty well (yes, i cried) but one thing that irks me is that zack, ivy and carmen pretty much split as if they didn't spend last years being super close. i feel like carm basically ditched them without a word of explanation. i really hoped they're gonna go with the 'found family' trope & i'm kinda disappointed carmen left zack and ivy behind

anyways like i said the show ended pretty well but this one thing just doesn't sit right with me

idk maybe it's just that im sad/bitter the show ended but-

[julieargent]

ACME outfit will make people more attractive and I can confirm that

[colorfulbaobab]

i finished carmen sandiego like 3 days ago and while i LOVED the 4th season, im not very fond of the finale. it was i little rushed, i think? now that i had some time to think on it, here's my unwanted take on how it could be better:

more brainwashed carmen

more of their heists and gray’s increasing regret going along with it. i knew he would turn but show me

DEFINITELY more of team red trying to save carmen (because jumping 6 months and showing ivy&zack talk about how they tried to save carmen is just lazy)

oh and on the topic of my favorite redheads, maybe have them talk a little bit more about what they want to do after everyting. there was serious diconnect btw team red and acme, why would they want to be acme agents all of a sudden??

more of acme not understanding what the hell's happening and jules&devinoux being sad about it

to put it simply, just expand on everything. where to fit all of that you may ask. well, my episode ends with carmen electrocuting gray. his hand flops to the ground, close up on carmen's cruel, triumphant face.

yea, it's a two-parter :)
