  • i always wanted to go an this show when i was younger

  • I say he's still too close to the microphone.

  • The dreaded african map

  • hah they make the main prize impossible to get

  • ROCKAPELLA FUCK YEAH

  • sexual african republic?

  • @artbytandy Central African Republic.

  • This show kicked so much ass when I was a kid. I wish it was still on.

  • How is a trip to anywhere in the U.S. a terrible prize??? That's freakin awesome in my opinion. Now, the prizes for the other contestants... those were pretty bad.

  • Sweet Jesus, those prizes were atrocious!

  • The sound fx when someone is wrong sounds like a fart

  • I used to have a crush on Gregg when I was young and I was so sad when this show wasn't on anymore.

  • I loved this show when i was kid brings back memories

  • Hahahaha the prizes are funnier than his lame ass shit joke.

  • I think the only one I would've gotten right is South Africa. That kid's smarter than me.

  • Funny, the first one he got right was South Africa.

  • Do it, Rockapella!!!

  • WOW! A portable CD player!! I'd love to have one of those! :)

  • Haha the comedian beat the lawyer and the surgeon! Good stuff.

  • @fredy956 and the cartoon supervillain still got the best of him. Life is not fair.

  • Wow, a fucking radio for second place!? Rip-off lol.

  • This is back when educational TV didnt suck.

  • I'm sorry but I have no idea who Gregg G. is.

  • i thought i didn't really understand this show because i couldn't remember it. but now as i watch it 14 or so years later, i realize, i still don't understand it. love the 90s though

  • Man this kid is a loser, I read the story, about how he just wanted to show his rival how even with a public school education he was better than him. Regardless of whether that is true or not he is just a b-grade comedian, I bet right now that person has a real job, and your still just making lame jokes.

  • @Canberra3lites I guarantee I am wealthier than you. And, also, that no one in their life has ever called you funny or smart.

  • @GreggGeth

    THE Greg Gethard! Wow, I am honoured. While I would love to argue your latter comment about never being called intelligent or funny, it is to hard to prove. Rather I can assure you that you are far wealthier then me, seeing as I am only 16 and have no more then $5000 in my bank account.

    Wealthier then a casually employed student, you should put that on your resume or something.

  • @GreggGeth Wow, after reading this comment... you seem like a pretty big douche. I don't know if that was an attempt at humor, but cutting down strangers on the internet (who are probably in high school) is super embarrassing. You sound like a loser, dude.

  • Africa is a hard one.

  • I never seen anybody win where is carmen sandiego I would be like where is this trick?!

  • i bet i could win on jeopardy but i think id have a problem winning this show

  • Is that the standard Carmen Sandiego audience, or are they all black just because they went to Africa?

  • @StoverTV how dumb.... sad...

  • those cds sucked balls

  • How the hell did that kid win???

  • *Congratulations, You've won an iPod Touch!"

    WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS SHIT?

  • What is a portable CD player?

  • @budmorgan23 i got 3 of those lol im a real 90s kid

  • @ericcarr21 Lol I remember trying to stuff my portable CD player into my pocket so I could walk around and play my music

  • @budmorgan23 I think a portable CD player is one of those external USB compact disc drives or something. Could be wrong.

  • His disappointment feeds my hunger.... 0:58

  • He probably would have lost even if he knew the countries well because he wasted too much time waiting for the siren when he placed the light.

  • wow what shitty prizes... a "world band radio"... crappy cd player and a bunch of fucking Yanni CD's how gay..

  • It's Greg with 1 g not 2

  • @pauljheath No it's 2 not 1.

  • pauses @ 3:49 .....Look at the ancient CD Player for $150

  • @bkgangsta234 Reminds me of how I used to be a little jelous of one of my first grade classmates who had this one yellow portable casset tape player.

  • the comedian beat the lawyer priceless......

  • gregg you rule......

  • @LoveofChristaddict They said "filcher," which means thief. And Filcher is an English word.

  • A world band radio?! YES!

  • am i the only one that finds it messed up they play with african borders that are probably more recent than the host

  • With the countries he did get, I would have guessed he'd know the countries he tried first were not Malawi...

  • OMG GO GREG!

  • 4:07 Oh my god their hair!

    4:19 - end what did they just say?! haha.

  • love rockafella.....the warrant lol.

  • man, I could never do that bonus round. US states I could do okish, MAYBE Europe, but not Africa!!! I am shocked he got the ones he did.

  • lol crazy memories

  • OMG I remember this!

  • I bet every kid who got Africa secretly went FFFFFFUUUUUUU

  • how did that kid no them places

  • they shouldve had this on DVD!

  • I loved watching this when it was on tv

  • I'm old

  • dang this brought back memories. And quite impressive 5 nations. That shoulda been good enough to win the grand prize, haha

  • what was happening from 1:30 to 1:31

  • RE-RE-RE-REMIX!

  • this show reminds me of the three brothers that peter mistakes for children of the corn.

  • who is this guy?

  • where in the world is my asshole?

  • Man, I don't remember the prizes being so crappy.

  • I think "crappy" is ...pretty harsh. That stuff was fantastic in 1993! I would've given anything for a cd player.

  • @Mesoian Yeah keep in mind the Genesis came out right about then for over 200 bucks, and you can pick one of those up for pennies on the dollar now.

  • lol..that BIG ASS CD player!!

  • Wow! This sure does bring back memories! Back when the future didn't seem so far away!

    Very nice job! Keep up the great work! Thanks for posting! A++++++++

    Have a great day, a great night, a great week, a great weekend, a great month, a great winter, a Happy New Year and a Happy New Decade! All the best in 2010 and beyond! Puerto Rican Love from New York City!

  • Yeah I remember watching this as a kid and thinking 45 seconds was never enough for 7 markers.. even if you knew all the countries, you needed to be a quick runner.

  • Not to mention...AFRICA? I'm surprised that kid hit five. He was terrific

  • rofl cd player? did you see the size of that! hahahah.

  • oh i rember this and that stupid ass cherry light

  • This is hillarious! Greg dominates the two serious kids who want to be a neurosurgeon and a laywer respectively. Smart kid.

  • LoL Gregg Get-Hard

  • @TheNoisePolluter Even Wikipedia mocks him with that one!!!

  • haha. I had forgotten about the guy with the braids.

  • what terrible prizes

  • @alfrocked LMAO. COLD BLOODED

  • I REMEMBER TRYNA BE ON THIS SHOW...BUT WOULD NEVER BE SMART ENOUGH!!!

  • did any kid EVER win?

  • Yes, a whole lot of people won throughout the years. I was in the audience of this show when I was 10 in summer camp in the summer of 1995.

    Very nice job! Keep up the great work! Thanks for posting! A++++++++

    Have a great day, a great night, a great week, a great weekend, a great month, a great winter, a Happy New Year and a Happy New Decade! All the best in 2010 and beyond! Puerto Rican Love from New York City!

  • WOW brother youre excited. Whoo Hoo!! A DECAde means Ten (10) years. The DECAde will end at the end of 2010.

  • It's debatable isn't it?

    Have a great night, a great day tommorrow, a great weekend, a great month, a great winter, a Happy New Year and a Happy New Decade! All the best in 2010 and beyond! Puerto Rican Love from New York City!

  • No, the 90's was 1990-1999, this decade was 2000-2009, next 2010-2019, and so on

  • I used to love this show soo much! That's why I am such a beast geo now.

  • BS Man...no person can run that fast across the continents! And those markers are bigger and probably heavier than he is!

  • wow how about a trip back to the past! loved this show! used 2 watch it all the time

  • That last challenge was such bullshit. No one ever one it. 50 seconds wasn't even enough time to run across that frickin huge map.

  • I REMEMBER THAT!! Ya even if you know your countries PERFECT it would be next to impossible to do it right, especially on a map that big, even at 8 I thought this was unfair lol.

  • There were a few winners now and then. The key was speed and memory.

  • @monolith94 look up Tatsuo Masudo. He won it just in the nick of time...

  • 1:03 Lynne Thigpen FTW RIP

  • YOOOOO OMG I Love this show. brings me back big time

  • Omg...this brings back so many memories!!!!!

  • These were days of no responsebilities but elementary school. When I got off the school bus and immediately watched this and Disney Afternooon.

  • if they brought this show back i'd still watch it!! lol

  • i remember this shit

  • 4:22 "take her for a ride on her sofa vagina"

  • no it's SLOW BOAT RIDE TO CHINA

  • Rockappella are a bunch of douche bags.

  • haha I remember this show

  • man ol man bring back childhood memories....those were the days...

  • World was less cynical back then

  • So true the world was less cynical.

    Now it's all about fame and wearing

    designer clothes

  • it's to bad the kid didn't win. 45 seconds is not nearly enough time to think and run to find the places .

  • i remmber one show that a kid didn't get one Q's right, but won.

  • bringing back childhood memories

  • Yeah, I miss this show, brings back so many memories.

  • What happened to the end credits, and could someone please re-upload Part 2 of this episode with the full ending?

  • Comment removed

  • Good thing WMG didn't get their grubby hands on this.

  • 3:25 = the house remix

  • The brain surgeon and the lawyer lost to a fucking comedian...

  • Hey, comedians have to be smart, too. How else are they going to be funny?

  • @p20 a bad comedian too lol

  • oh man this show was the greatest, i miss it! haha

  • me too, i used to like it alot.

  • fun show

  • Wow I used to watch this show all the time when I was little.

    Who played the computer game at school?

  • i did!

  • I played "Where in Time." The chronoskimmer was awesome.

  • The last part is so dumb.

  • i would so have sucked in the finally round...bet if it was a non american he would have gotten it cuz they care more about the world then we do lol when i was that age i remember learnin about the US and France, germany basically. Most americans suck with the maps...glad i dont have to take geo anymore lol

  • it went black and white again i are scareded

  • you can see him die inside at 1:54

  • No.

  • No what?

  • I don't see anyone dying at 1:54!

  • Of course nobody dies!!! Watch his face after the theif says africa, he dies inside and his face shows it.

  • Comment removed

  • Comment removed

  • That makes absolutely no sense whatsoever!

  • We get it now shut up, you're the only retard who doesn't understand what I'm saying so shut the hell up!

  • YOU'RE the only one who understands what you're saying! I don't see any dying, or any showings of death on the faces!

  • 0:13 "nice job"

    lol he got it wrong and he had chosen him before.

  • Yeah but if he picked the right one it would have been in the wrong order, but would have given away the answer. It's better to choose one you know is wrong, so at least you won't give away the answer. It's called strategy.

  • africa fucked me in geography too, 50+ countries, not very popularized, I'm a geography nerd and Africa is the hardest continent to study.

  • Damn, not a personal CD player. What a great prize.

  • maybe the best prize of any show. You get to pick where you wanna go.. I choose.. Elans moms house...

  • THE WARRANT

  • Greg  G.and Greg L. are hilarious!

  • I feel bad for the kids who get africa. I mean when you are that age, do you really know much about Africa?

  • well he knew more than most.. I used to think South America and North America were the easiest so when i would play along at home i always knew the kids that got the other continents wouldnt win.

  • 0:37 is the funniest thing ever. haha, his face

  • What great memories!

  • Ohmygoodness, I just had crazy flashbacks to watching kids run across that giant map when I was little! Wow! I'd forgotten about this awesome show XD

  • It's 1 g, not 2. I really enjoyed it. Can you correct it?

  • haha too bad he lost

  • i loved, "Beacon Hill" the guys, "Close to Greg's House." i laughed!

    to twobitmage i know a worse one, maybe 5-8 years ago ABC World News Tonight asked people if they knew when the Revolutionary War was, only 2 people out of i think 100+ they years. my brother and i were blow away from that.

  • You know that depressing statistic that around 50% of Americans can't find the US on a globe?

    I blame it on the horrifying lack of Carmen Sandiego in the airwaves.

  • thats wat a GPS does to your brain!!!

  • Wow this brings back wonderful, stress-free memories. Aww the good ole days!!!

  • that was such a great show! i used to love the computer game

  • Thanks for uploading! The lady who hosted the VP Debate totally reminded me of Nina.

  • There is a spelling error. Greg has one g & not 2.

  • how many africans have you asked?

  • 3. The African foreign exchange student and her 2 brothers. Nice girl. little brother was a dick though.

    also for bomus points, Define third world nation for me. the Cold war definition that I was using.

  • Rockapella was by far the best part of this show

  • This was a TV show in the US? Heh. I'm Irish, to me I know Carmen Sandiego as this cool Geogrphy gmae we played in Computer class. I loved that game back when, wished they showed the TV shows.

  • It was based on the game. This show was on PBS from 91-96. Childhood memories! =)

  • I always felt bad when the kinds got Africa, it's the most difficult continent!

  • I'm extremely satisfied that the Jailtime Challenge took place in Boston, MA. Besides, I live exactly 30 miles north of the city in Haverhill, MA.

  • Africa was the hardest country!

    Man PBS is so cheap! Giving away prizes worth less than $100. I guarantee those CD's sucked so bad lol

  • africa's not a country "smartguy"

    friggin idiot

  • It WAS cheap.

  • Ok we either had alot of imagination back in the day or we we're always High , cause I don't see the appeal now that I see it , but I used to watch this as much as I could .

  • Can someone please tell me who Gregg Gethard is?

  • Some stand up comic from Philadelphia this would have been so much funnier if it was Dave Chapelle

  • I loved this show soooooooo much as a kid omg lol

  • They need to bring this show back!

  • lmaoooooo he was sooooo excited...y the hell did i want one of those jackets when i was little...i didnt even care bout playing the game i just wanted the jacket
