Today, Mike and Sammy wax nostalgic with Michael Fountain about The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!  This was a syndicated show that was equal parts live action and animation about the adventures of the ever-popular video game characters Mario and Luigi, portrayed of course as blue collar Italian Americans living in Brooklyn.

 

We discuss the consequences of living in a literal trap house, White Mike, Mario gaining super powers by changing unions, writing so bad that Sammy berates writers of a children’s show by name, and being pleasantly surprised at a lack of this show’s racism.

 

Episodes: S01E01 - Neatness Counts / The Bird! The Bird!, S01E39 - Caught in a Draft / Bad Rap
