Robo Koopa - S1-E52

Continuity mistake: When Mario, Luigi, Bunsun and Dr. Nerdnik are about to be crushed by the electric pole, when Luigi moans "we're doomed," he is in front of Mario. In the next shot, Mario is looking ahead while saying "doomed, schmoomed." In this same shot, Mario pulls Luigi over to a nearby fire hydrant, and Luigi moves onscreen from Mario's right. Therefore, Luigi has changed position. (00:07:10)

Show generally

Other mistake: On the "Mario's Greatest Movie Moments" DVD of this series, from the main menu, go into the trivia game. The fifth question asks you about the Super Mario Bros. Super Show episode 'Count Koopula.' It asks you "What's room number that the Mario Bros. were put into in Koopula's Castle?" It's supposed to say "What's THE room number that the Mario Bros. were put into in Koopula's Castle?"

More trivia for The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!

Answer: "Club Mario" was reruns of the original show repackaged with new live action segments. It was a cheap way to present the old animated episodes as a new show. Club Mario was incredibly unpopular and eventually reruns of the original show with the Captain Lou Albano segments were aired in its place.
