To tie into the recent Super Mario movie release, we decided to cover the early 90s Super Mario World cartoon. The Mario segment is a little boring, even though we have some fun discussing the the weird diversions the creators decided to take from the standard games. The real gem here, though, is the Captain N: The Game Master segment that comes in the second half of the episode. It's a wild 11 minutes, with a surprising guest star, an evil robot AND an evil clock, an Urkel ripoff, and a princess who just wants her dad to come back. It's something.
