I can remember watching The Super Mario Bros Super Show as a child and it never failed to amaze me because it was so cool and having the live-action Mario and Luigi made the show fun to see. What a surprise that The Super Mario Bros Super Show will be added to METV Toons because if it does well METV Toons might launch a block full of video game oriented cartoons in the future like Pac-Man and The Legend Of Zelda

Figured I'd mention this here, but it seems like the masters they used are upscaled with Ai. So, the show is now called "⅂IIE Suplr MaNo Bros Super Show". If any of you want to see a comparison of the first airing with Shout Factory's DVD, I uploaded this video:

"WildBrain’s [‘The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!’] Replaces Nostalgic Charm With Sloppy AI Updates" (article)
Quote:
The return of The Super Mario Bros. Super Show! to broadcast TV via MeTV Toons should have been a legacy brand PR slam dunk with this week’s release of the Super Mario Galaxy Movie. Instead, the show’s comeback has drawn intense scrutiny, with widespread allegations that the broadcast relies on AI-driven upscaling. The slopped-up results are hard to argue.
(note: comments involving profanity were approved for the comment section on the page involving the article above whereas comments (by the creator of this note) against profanity (including one involving a certain Biblical verse (Ephesians 4:29)) were not approved for that same section)
