Daytime Heroes: Mario Meets Koop-Zilla (The Super Mario Bros. Super Show, 1989)

Holy ravioli! The Super Mario Bros. travel to Sayonara to try to stop arch-foe King Koopa, who has morphed into a parody of Godzilla in "Mario Meets Koop-Zilla".

Meanwhile, in the live-action wraparound, the brothers (Lou Albano, Danny Wells) recruit a fortune teller (guest star Kaye Ballard, ex-The Mothers-in-Law) to help them win a sweepstakes, with the predictable results.....



The series marks its 30th anniversary this year, but Mario & Luigi have been around longer than that, of course.

Rating: B.
