Where in the U.S.A. is Carmen Sandiego (U.S. syndicated game show)

Where in the U.S.A. Is Carmen Sandiego? is a American syndicated children's educational game show loosely based on created by Brøderbund Software. The show stars as "The Chief",  as the ACME Chief of US Safekeeping, and "The Engine Squad" as various informants.

Gameplay
Before the show begins, the viewing audience sees Carmen Sandiego in her V.I.L.E. headquarters (a surveillance nano-probe films Carmen's lair unnoticed) complaining to herself and plotting to steal the American location/item she is complaining about. Carmen then tells one of her V.I.L.E. henchmen and henchwomen what to steal and where to go. (She shines an 'Info-Beam' to give the details of the object in question and then gives the thief a 'Loot Orb' or 'Cybersphere' to contain it). The Chief then tells the audience that Carmen's chosen henchman has stolen something, which must be recovered to prevent permanent loss. The show then begins with the Engine Squad preparing the ACME hopper (a bus which is bigger on the inside) for launch, and introduces host 'Grey DeLisle'.
