This segment is the ''[[Club Mario]]'' segment that aired alongside ''[[The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!]]'' episode "[[Rolling Down the River]]," replacing the original live-action segment "[[The Mario Monster Mash]]."

==Plot synopsis==
The segment starts with [[Co-MC]] having just fixed the signal at [[Club Mario (location)|Club Mario]] to show its titular show on the TV. He then introduces himself to the viewer, before explaining that his partner [[Tommy Treehugger]] is not present at the moment. Tommy, who is dressed as a bowling pin, remarks that he is actually here. Co-MC asks what he is doing, to which responds that he going bowling, explaining his costume. Co-MC mentions that he will have a talk with him later, before giving a synopsis of ''[[The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!]]'' episode "[[Rolling Down the River]]." He and Tommy then "satellite surf" to documentary featuring [[Elvis Presley]]. In the documentary, Elvis explains that he used to operate tanks while serving in the {{wp|United States Army|U.S. Army}}, explaining that they "rock and roll," with the scene then changing to show him performing live at a concert.

After a little more "satellite surfing," the scene then cuts back to Club Mario, where Co-MC mentions that the "surf is up" again on its titular show. He then talks to Tommy, saying that, while he loves him like a brother, he is such a "pinhead" with his bowling pin costume. Tommy then responds that he dressed himself with the costume because he though it would be funny, but realized that he could not press the button for elevator as the costume has no visible arm holes, resulting in him running late for their show. Co-MC then says that he will press a button on the remote to watch ''The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!'', and the scene then transitions to the show.

Later, after watching "Rolling Down the River," Tommy and Co-MC comment on how Mario and Luigi constantly "blew them away" in the episode while holding ''The Ultimate Satellite Surfing Guide to TV'', a TV guide for "satellite surfing." While looking at the guide, Co-MC suggests that they watch a channel about surfing on {{wp|Mars}}, while Tommy suggests that they watch ''Big Kid Theater''. Co-MC attempts to counter Tommy's choice, saying that they can watch a channel about rapping on {{wp|Pluto}}, though Tommy says that they should just go "satellite surfing." Ultimately, they end up deciding to "satellite surf" to ''Big Kid Theater''.

On ''Big Kid Theater'', [[Big Kid]] tells his viewers that they will be looking at the "dark side of broccoli," before showing a clip of ''{{wp|Radar Men from the Moon}}''. In the clip, an astronaut throws a bomb at a group of two other astronauts before running to their spaceship. After boarding the ship, the ship's driver then begins backing up the ship before driving off, where the clip ends. Big Kid says goodbye to his viewers, telling them that he will see them next time on his show.

The scene then cuts back to Tommy, who is skating on a skateboard. After almost wiping out on the skateboard, he then asks the viewer if they remember the [[Club Mario (The Bird! The Bird!)|last time]] [[Yomega Man]] appeared on his and Co-MC show, before mentioning that he is back on their show, who will perform more "killer tricks" for the viewer. Yomega Man begins by performing the "roller coaster," which consists of him retracting his yo-yo down before pulling it back up, catching its string with his finger to make it spins around once. He then performs the "walk the dog," which consists of him retracting his yo-yo until it reaches the ground, where he lets the yo-yo roll along the ground. At Tommy's request, he also performs the "dog bite," which is similar to the "walk the dog," except that he yanks it back his while it is between his legs, resulting in it becoming stuck on his right thigh. He then performs the "{{wp|Pinocchio}}," which consists of him retracting his yo-yo before quickly yanking it back up, using its string to similuate his nose enlongating, similar to how Pinocchio's would enlongate when he lied. He then performs the "monkey off the tree," which consists of him retracting his yo-yo before quickly yanking it back up, pulling one end of the yo-yo with his right index finger before rolling the yo-yo around with his left. For his final trick, he performs the "double man on the flying trapeze," a variation of the "man on the flying trapeze" trick he performed in the [[Club Mario (The Bird! The Bird!)|first ''Club Mario'' segment]], except with him also holding the yo-yo's string with his thumbs.

After performing his yo-yo tricks in front of Tommy and Co-MC, the former compliments him, saying that he was "killer," though Co-MC reminds him that it is time to show previews for the next ''{{iw|zeldawiki|The Legend of Zelda (TV Series)|The Legend of Zelda}}'' segment.

Later, Tommy and Co-MC are trying themselves on surfboards, with the latter welcoming the viewer back. Tommy then asks Co-MC how things are going for him, to which he replies that he now knows the reason why the Mario Bros. do not surf. Tommy remarks how good the day has been for them, mentioning that they Elvis on TV and he went bowling. He then asks Co-MC if he wants to do more "satellite surfing," to which he replies in the affirmative. They then "satellite surf" to channel featuring people surfing, sponsored by {{wp|Maui and Sons}}.

After the show, Tommy, who is still surfing on his surfboard along with Co-MC, mentions that they had the almost-hardest session of surfing that they ever had, though Co-MC responds he has finally mastered surfing, before telling the viewer that members of the {{wp|United States Congress}} get their presents wrapped for free. Tommy then asks Co-MC why English people lose their accent when they sing, though Co-MC responds that he does not know. Tommy decides that they should worry about these problems next time on their show, before saying goodbye to the viewer along with Co-MC, with them saying that they will see them tomorrow, "where the airwaves are [their] waves."

==Characters==
*[[Tommy Treehugger]]
*[[Co-MC]]
*[[Big Kid]]
*[[Yomega Man]]

==Notes==
*When giving a synopsis of "[[Rolling Down the River]]," [[Co-MC]] says that [[Mario]] and [[Luigi]], disguised as riverboat gamblers aboard the ''[[Sinister Star]]'', have to protect [[Princess Peach|Princess Toadstool]] from [[Bowser|Captain Koopa]]. However, in the actual episode, Princess Toadstool is already been captured at the start of the episode, and the reason why Mario and Luigi are disguised as riverboat gamblers is to distract [[Bowser's Minions|Captain Koopa's minions]] while [[Toad]] tries to free Princess Toadstool from her cell. By the time they do try to protect Princess Toadstool, they have already removed their disguises. This inaccuracy is further corroborated after they watch the titular episode, with them commenting about "those riverboat gamblers" constantly "blew them away," though Mario and Luigi only wear their disguises at the start of the episode.
*Co-MC implies that the Mario Bros. do not surf, though later media features Mario surfing, such as the [[Blooper Racer]]s in ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]'' and [[ray surfing]] in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]''.
