"The broadcast channel MeTV Toons has begun airing old episodes of the show, likely to trade on the buzz emanating from the pending theatrical release of The Super Mario Galaxy Movie."
"MeTV seems to have run the footage through a bargain bin AI upscaler and the results are, in a word, weird."
"The AI also seems to have changed the title card to 'The Suele Mario Bros. Super Show.' These AI tools have never been great with visual representations of written text."
"The Super Mario Bros. Super Show ran for just a single season, famous for its live-action segments that starred professional wrestler 'Captain' Lou Albano as Mario."
MeTV Toons has started airing episodes of The Super Mario Bros. Super Show, a cartoon from 1989. The show features sibling plumbers and aired for one season with 65 episodes. However, the episodes have been poorly enhanced using AI, resulting in a strange visual quality. Characters appear altered, and the title card has been incorrectly changed. The original series was not visually impressive, but the AI enhancement has made it look worse. Comparisons can be made with episodes available on YouTube.
