Thanks so much for watching! Do you have any fond memories of this show? What other Video Game Cartoons do you enjoy?

My fondest memory of the show was actually learning that Captain Lou Albano lived right around the corner from my grandmother, which is where I used to watch this show a lot when I was a kid.

I’d like to see a video about Kirby: Right Back At Ya! in the near future.

It was weird yes but its quite clear everyone who worked on it loved working on it just looking up how proud both Danny wells and Lou Albano were after it ended shows that even if the show wasn't great or like the games they still put in the love, time and effort to make the show entertaining for kids while still making sure kids learned something from the series. These guys next to Charles Marinette are probably the best actors to have played the duo

The animation errors are probably my favorite I've ever seen in an animated show.

_Super Mario Bros Supershow_ is maybe cheesy and wacky at best, but Captain Lou Albano and Danny Wells are already plumbing up their game on the roles as the live-action Mario and Luigi, which makes the show memorable.

Super Show was very different compared to it's successors. There were cheesy live action segments with guest stars(Obi-Wan Cannoli including Inspector Gadget) and animated segments covering popular culture and the public domain. While the Super Mario Bros 3 and Super Mario World stuck to their source material. The ham is present here, so Do The Mario!

5:58 my boyfriend recently found the "do the Mario song" and we always watch Lou/mario dancing and singing for a little laugh. My bf says that Lou was drunk while filming that, and if you watch closely at the end you can see Lou stumble forward a bit as he loses balance while striking his final pose. It is hilarious!!!

This show was a lot of fun. We didn't have much in the way of lore or backstory back then so my friends and I would watch this and make up our own further adventures at recess. I think that's probably why I loved the live action movie, it wasn't that much different from the stuff my friends and I invented.

My mom would throw this on a lot when I was home sick as a kid considering she grew up in the 80's. Definitely a weird show, but a memorable one! Thank you for the constantly stellar content, man! Say, could you review Shredderman sometime? I kid, I kid. I'm going to wait a LONG while before bothering you with a request again. 😅

This show may be weird, but that's what I love about it.

God, I remember watching the DVD sets for this cartoon so much that the discs were practically unusable for scratched they were from use. Also, the live action bits creeped me out back then for some reason.

I feel instantly old the moment this show is ever brought up. I do still have a soft spot for it but I think this is a series that deserves to live rent free in my nostalgia.

I remember renting DVD’s of the animated segments from Redboxes in the early 2010’s to watch on long car rides. Very good times.

Facts: in 1990, Club Mario replaced the live action Mario & Luigi segments in reruns on the Super Mario Bros. Super Show rather than being its own program and the Anti Drug PSA with Lou Albano (where he says "You'll go to Hell before you die.") was broadcasted on Philly 57, a channel that is now my local CW affiliate.

I absolutely ADORE TSMBSS, no matter how cheesy it is. I remember discovering it on Netflix many years ago, and I fell in love with it. I soon later discovered that there were 2 more Mario cartoons after stumbling onto them on KZfaq, and while I enjoy them as well, I'll always love the first cartoon. Not to mention, the cartoon invented Luigi's timidness and made Peach a bit more proactive rather than just being the damsel in distress. Plus, Hooked On The Brothers and Do The Mario are certified bops lol

I loved this show as a kid, especially the legend of Zelda parts. It's hard to believe there were so few episodes. I guess I watched a lot of reruns.

I love this show in a "it's so bad it's good" kind of way

I love this show! I watched my VHS copy a lot back in the day. "Do the Mario, swing your arms side to side."

This show makes me feel nostalgic, especially with renting the DVDs of the Mario cartoons when I was younger. My favorite character was always Toad.

I was the biggest Mario fan when I was like 5 in the late 90's. My uncle told me there was a TV show! I managed to get a hold of a single VHS tape of the show and would watch it over and over. I know it's not the best but it is extremely nostalgic to me

that clip of luigi sobbing in to his hands is a great summarization of my life

Toad was my favorite character in the DIC Mario cartoons and I’m so happy he’s gonna be one of the main characters in the movie too!

I loved the show back when I was a kid and I still do today. I watched it back when it first aired. I remember that day; I'd usually watch Happy Days around lunch time, but I decided to channel surf a bit and found this show! I was already a Mario fan at the time, so finding this show was the coolest thing ever! Later that year, I actually got to meet Captain Lou as well. I still have the photograph that I took with him.

One of the DVD collections of this show was the first movie I ever bought for myself. I was maybe 7 or 8? It's such a staple of my childhood, and the mario rap is forever embedded in my brain

The Super Show and Captain N are in the realm where they're so bad its good and I still love them to this day. Plus Captain Lou Albano is just a class act and treasure who died too soon while not being given enough credit to how he merged all forms of entertainment into the realms of Music, TV, Wrestling, and Video Games which makes him a very unsung visionary to me.

The struggle to wake up early enough to watch this and Sonic are some of my earliest memories

Still have DVD copies of every episode. Love this show.

9:12 Princess Peach/Toadstool in that Quicksand Pit was the highlight of the series for me. I imagined myself wanting to save her from that Quicksand Pit quite often when I was a kid, because I wanted to be like Mario and Link saving girls from perils like that.

I remember watching this show as a kid and really liking it! To me, Lou Albano is the quintessential voice of Mario, with Bob Hoskins second. I grew apart from video games around the N64 era, so Charles Martinet never had a chance to grow on me. Back to this show, though, I've got lots of fond memories of it! I remember really loving how they expanded not only the SMB1 and 2 worlds, but also went to many imaginative places with their parodies and homages. It really fired up my imagination, and made me wonder what all other kinds of situations and adventures Mario could be a part of. As an adult, though, I've learned to be content with my memories of my experiences and imagination of the time, and not have that be sullied by clinical detachments of the show in a bingeable archive format, so I'm not going to rewatch it. There's a lot of other cartoons that I had similar fond memories of but rewatching as an adult showed they don't hold up to modern standards and probably didn't hold up to contemporary standards either, but it was for kids with bright colors and toys so I still respect them for hitting their audience.

it was weird, but i loved it as a kid, it captured Mario's Essence in the cartoon segments and the live action was a nice break in the action. also, name another cartoon show that encouraged you to dance, you'd be hard pressed to come up with an answer. now... DO THE MARIOOOO!

"Excuuuse me princess" and "I'm waaAaiting" are both still said frequently in my house. 😂

You ever seen Kirby Right Back At Ya? A solid anime adaptation that takes its own creative liberties. While outdated in terms of character representation, like DDDs redemption arc in the games, it’s a meme worthy, entertaining ride I’d love to see a video on.

I have so much nostalgia for this show. This show is also older than me but I watched it on Netflix as a kid. As a kid the animation was by far my favorite but returning to it I agree the live-action is more entertaining.

for how weird this show and how much it relies on pop culture for most of it's plots, I love rewatching these cartoons and see them as a time capsule of when Mario was only a niche thing that a couple of circles of communities know about. yes, it is cheaply made, but there's clearly a labour of love put into every episode and skit, you can't help but smile

I remember this show so vividly, it’s super strange but it has a place in my heart

Your timing is perfect 😊 Phelous is actually the one who introduced me to this pretty cool show

i love this show i will always enjoy it

I would honestly like to watch a video on that Double Dragon cartoon I remember watching it Sunday mornings as a kid and remembering it was pretty bonkers

Let's not forget the two sequel series; Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3 and Super Mario World. While shorter in run, they did explore some new territory.

So much more you could have covered in this deep rabbit hole of The Super Mario Bros Supershow.

*sees title* “When did you come to that conclusion”

_"So, how many Spaghetti Jokes and Puns do you want per episode?"_ *_"Y e s."_*

I used to love this show as a kid. However, I like to believe that the Zelda bits are the proof of why Link isn't ALLOWED to have a voice.

Perfection with the Mario 2/Doki Doki Panic joke! 😂🤣

Fun fact Bowser and King Koopa were meant to be separate characters. Even though they are pretty indistinguishable.

You just had to be there. This show was amazing!

"Well, f-ck you, Luigi!” 🤣 ... I've managed to watch several episodes of the show, and they don't disappoint.

I loved how the Mario rap was in the new movie

My favorite gag in the animated parts of the super mario series was a space episode where the Legend of Zelda music would be played and King Koopa called "horrible noise"

I think it’s perfect that you put the ads right at the “we’ll be back” segments

I first remember watching this at a friends house at a sleepover in the morning, but it was during the last couple minutes. I would find it again on Netflix a few months later, and it was enjoyable.

I often say, “excuuuuuuuuse me, princess!” And NO ONE EVER UNDERSTANDS THE REFERENCE! Link was so funny in that show! Thank you for the nostalgia! And do the Mario!

My stepmom actually had some of the dvds of this show for my stepbros and I would periodically watch them with them. I really liked them.

sounds basicly like the mario version of "Adventures of sonic the hedgehog" where too "fun" comes first and logic so distantly second it orbits a different star

I remember all the fun memories I had watching the show on KZfaq with my brother. It a was weird but a Fun time and I really loved the portrayal of Mario and Luigi brotherly dynamic

Hey Jordan, thanks for all the dope vid! Not sure if you are a podcast guy but "wizard and the bruiser" (a deep dive on culture and video games) as well as all the LPN network might be a worthwhile check!!

I watch this as I go to bed, every night, no joke.

I love this show! It feels very nostalgic and I'm a 2000's kid. The jokes, while corny work well with the show. This cartoon reflects that Era of animated kids shows and I love that. I'd say it's fine just the way it is!

Mario telling me I was going to Hell was the highlight of my life

Man, I’m old. Because I watched these when they aired and had copyrighted music that was cut out in reruns. Also Jordan, look up the short run of comics made by Valiant. You’ll love it.

If you were a kid in the 80s you LOVED this show.

i liked the live action segments and how they used the video game music in the outro and intro shots, i liked the design of the animated characters and i think they used that design for the mcd happymeal toys and also figures that were available in some toy stores.

I enjoy this series so much and I still watch it today on Freevee. May Lou and Danny rest in spaghetti heaven.

This cartoon really is memorable for both the memes and the cartoon in general

I watch this and the two spinoffs on Tubi every night

4:11 Mario: We'll be right back and boil my steam. 4:15 Luigi: Now back to our story, watch this.

I remember hearing kids who watched vhs tapes of this show back in something like the 3rd or 4th grade. I had no idea what they were talking about at the time. I was only 2 years old when the super mario bros super show was on tv way back in 89. I didn't actually get to see it till I was in high school.

I love your channel! Keep up the awesome work!

I grew up with this show

Yoo no way jordon you done it again I loved this show I used to have and still have my dvds for them I gave them to my little cousins to watch and hopefully they are enjoying it now but I remember their were so many weird differences and some oddity's that threw me off at first but learnt to love when older

I grew up watching this live in the 80s and 90s and found a dvd box set of all the Suoer Mario Supershow episodes at Software Etc. in 2005/2006 for like $5. Best purchase ever.

I LOVED this show! And even though it was campy as hell, it was sooo good to watch TMNT AND this back to back everyday after I’d get home from school. 😊😊 A weird time capsule but such a fun part of my childhood! Do the Mario!! 😊😊 And of course LOVED the Zelda on Friday’s! “Excuuuuse me Princess” So cringe and so good! 😂😂

I remember the commercials for the show that had mario giving us life lessons about smoking weed good times.

I absolutely love this show

From what I understand, the original Super Mario Bros movie was more based on this show than the games, in the similar way that Tim Burton's Batman is to the Adam West TV show. That was the approach, at least, but it didn't exactly came out at a good time with its competition. I'm happy we now have the better version, but still, I love that wierd movie.

I just found ya through my reccomendations. I have very fond memories bumping into this gem of a show back in the 90's on it's re-run era back then. I was a huge fan of the live action segments a bit more over the cartoon segments. I was hoping they would collab and do a whole half hour live action segment show at some point down the road. Not realizing it was a one off deal. it would've been neat though. :)

THIS. SHOW. WAS. WEIRD. And amazing 🤩

It's-a-me Captain Lou and I'mma talking to you!

I grew up with this show and loved it. I still have my old VHS tape that I would watch nonstop. When I think Mario and Luigi's voice I always think of Capt Lou and Danny Wells first. I miss Luigi being a smart ass all time.

Oh yeah woohoo Mario Brothers that's super show.

The anime part was so much comfy, it's part of my childhood. We didn't have the live action part in my country, only the animated part.

Loved this show as a kid. Watched everyday after school

I actually love this show it wasn’t all bad it was actually interesting and fun to watch I tried to watch all of the shows but couldn’t find them all also still love u Jordan hope everything is still going good for u be safe and still love ur work as always

Streamed this for my younger friends last month. They absolutely adored it. Also missed opportunity. Could have started the video with "hey pizanos" XD

I’ve only watched a few episodes on KZfaq so I never grew up with this but I’d watch it because it feels like a fun show to watch.

I had a short lived Mario phase growing up and had a dvd with some super show episodes on it. Weirdly though, is the fact the dvd didn’t include the live action segments so imagine my confusion when the credits rolled and some guy in a Mario costume started dancing.

Gonna need a video on Captain N: The Game Master. You’re in for a treat with that show.

6:48 - this is a good example of how the show would mimic things we saw in the games. This shot (logs falling thru water) in particular is like several stages in SMB2 for example, and they used other elements from the games into how they executed the show, so it really connected with the gamers (maybe because the structure of source to adaptation was streamlined or something along those lines).

"You have a little spaghetti on your overalls" "Well F%&$ YOU, Luigi!"

This thing was the bees knees back in the day.

The Zelda show was pretty bad, but it was always entertaining. It ultimately got us The Legend Of Beavis too, so how could I not love it? I don't think it was part of Super Show but I've had one of the episodes of the Mario 3 cartoon stuck in my head for years. Mario and Luigi have a fight, one goes into the rain and forgets his frog suit. Weird stuff.

Jordan Fringe. Great video. Don't forget do the Mario. Hey Paisanos, I love that opening Rap.

had some episodes of the super show on dvd as a kid would watch then a lot before going to bed i have a lot of nostalgia for it

It was their were also ones based on Mario Bros 3 and Super Mario world as well as one Loosely based on Zelda 2.

The show was great! I think it's one of those things though, were you had to be there to 'get it'.

I remember watching this as a kid and doing the dance with them during the intro and outro

It's for the best that Metroid show didn't happen considering that DiC didn't know Samus was a woman.

I remember watching this show every weekday afternoon when I got home from school. I was 10 years old at the time. I loved every bit of it, but I really loved the Friday shows because not only I looked forward to the weekend but I also get to watch the latest Zelda episode that they anticipated all week.

They also made the cartoon segment's into it's own show
