Editing Talk:List of references in animated television

Dude whats WITH the TV cartoons that are not relevant here? This is a Mario Wiki not a cartoon Wiki.([[User:Super F22 Pilot|Super F22 Pilot]] 00:46, 30 November 2007 (EST))

It's simply a listing of all the known Mario references that can be found in non-Mario shows. What doesn't belong on this page? -- [[User: Booster|Booster]]
:Yes, it lists all the references and sightings of Mario in other non-related TV shows. {{User:Pokemon DP/sig}} And, in a similar fashion to what Booster said, what is out of place here?

Hey guys I'm going to remove the section about the Barnyard, because suck up ghosts is a refrance to Ghost Busters, not Luigi's Mansion. -[[User:Nerdy Guy|Nerdy Guy]]

I think that in an episode of southpark, there are two blurry screenshots from SMB and SMB2 on a couple of arcade machines. check it out on themushroomkingdom.net on the refrences page. Senor Luigi20:01, 27 May 2009 (EDT)

== Tales of Symphonia Anime ==

I think there is a Mario reference in the ending credits of episode 3. During the credits, the group travels through a forest and several mushroom-enemies appear. One of the protagonists defeats them by jumping on all of them in a row, similar to stomping on a row of Goombas. In addition, a ghost shows up, behaving similar to a Boo (he does not attack when directly faced)<br>

== MAD ==

In Cliffordfield and Big Time Rushmore one sketch shows two Goombas, then one gets stomped by Mario and the other one starts freaking out. The same thing happens later on in the episode.--Mr. 8-bit 11:10, 19 October 2010 (UTC)

Ok. You can add that to the article.--{{User|Knife}} 18:17, 20 October 2010 (UTC)

== Pinky Dinky Doo ==

In the episode "Burpzilla", when Pinky jumps out of the car to use her big idea, she does a somersalt move just like [[Mario]] in [[Super Mario Bros 3]]. Also, in the episode "Speed Rocket", the race is similar to Mario Kart. Except no powerups in order to prevent ripoffs from Mario Kart games

== Spongebob Squarepants ==
In the episode "Atlantis Squarepantis, the game Mission Start: The Germ Warrior is similar to a Mario game

== Zig and Sharko ==
In the episode "The Island Tour", Zig and Sharko go into a Mario game from a pipe. Also when the characters race, it is similar to Mario Kart

== Toddworld ==
In the episode "Sophie's Sinking Feeling", when the characters ride the Bath-Mobile (an invention by Sophie), it goes in a 2-D Mario-like action, also when the jump in the water, it is similar to [[Super Mario 64]] when they splash the water.

== Mickey Mouse ==
In the episode "Tokyo Go", when Mickey goes through a tunnel, the scene changes to that of a video game, which is Mario-like


==Spider-Man==
The description mentions "the new animated Spider-Man TV show". Question is, ''which'' one exactly? Is it talking about ''Spectacular Spider-Man'' or ''Ultimate Spider-Man''? (Personally, I'm presuming the description meant the former, considering the Jeph Loeb-induced vitirol for the latter... Of course, we all have to be sure first.)

==The Hell is with this stupid page?==
Okay look some of these reference are fine, but other things just seem made up?  Homer wearing a red shirt and over alls?  Like, that's a reference because they didn't choose one of the less common colors for shirts?

Here's a list of references I'm nominating for removal and why.

Kirby: Right Back At Ya! 
  
 In the episode "A Princess in Dis-Dress", Escargoon says the princess who is visiting is a peach. Also, things resembling Party Balls appear in a few episodes. 
 Party Balls weren't created by Nintendo.  They don't even feature in any Mario game

Regular Show

 Ello Gov'nor
 In this episode, Mordecai rents a movie called "Shy Guy". 
NO!  Shy Guy is just the English name of heihos, there isn't a reference there.  It's probably more of a reference to Mordecai's anxiety about the Margaret character.

King of the Hill
In some episodes, the Souphanousinphones have a pet terrier named "Doggie Kahn", which is most likely a parody of "Donkey Kong". 
NOOOOO! NOOOOO! Khan is the man of the family's name. He named his daughter after himself because he's egotistical.

Additionally
*Just because someone is named Bowser doesn't make them a reference.  Bowser is a semi popular British name.
** "Bowser" is also a slang term for a dog.   --[[User:The Iconoclast|The Iconoclast]] ([[User talk:The Iconoclast|talk]]) 15:51, 7 December 2012 (EST)
*Angry faces on bombs weren't something invented by Super Mario World.  People have been doing that since World War 2.

==Finishing Code Monkeys==
Whoever finished the Code Monkeys section, I want to thank you! I've been working on that section for so long but never got to finish it because I was too busy to finish and research on Code Monkeys and return to here. {{User|Zero777}}

== Robot Chicken ==

I request the ''Robot Chicken'' section to be separated by sub-sections (named by the sketch name). --[[User:TheMikester14|Michael]] ([[User talk:TheMikester14|talk]]) 04:58, 19 May 2014 (EDT)

That section should include "Class Clown", because on FOP wiki, the reference can be found. And that <s>f**king</s> Baby Luigi doesn't say it's a reference. I have no account there, I just read. <big>IT IS A D**N REFERENCE!</big>

::It's a reference because wikia site says so. Legit. I'm pretty sure something like [http://www.mariowiki.com/MarioWiki:BJAODN/Other#List_of_Mario_references_in_animated_television this ''merde'''] was taken from the Spongebob Squarepants wikia. Just because it's a human-eating plant doesn't make it a reference to Mario. These kinds of plant have been in pop culture ever since the existence of venus fly traps. Have you read the above discussions? {{User:Mario/sig}} 16:41, 30 September 2014 (EDT)

== Meeow! ==

On the Episode "MaisieMac and the Gorilla", The Gorilla looks similar and resemble to Donkey Kong.--[[User:CitationNeeded|CitationNeeded]] ([[User talk:CitationNeeded|talk]]) 23:57, 11 April 2018 (EDT)

== Schoolhouse Rock! ==

On the Song "Unpack Your Adjectives", The Turtle looks mostly like a Koopa Troopa.

On the Song "The Greatest Show on Earth", The Man bears some resemblance to Wario and Waluigi.

At end of the Song "A Victim of Gravity", After an Apple hits Isaac Newton's Head, Isaac Newton makes a Face like a Shy Guy Mask.

--[[User:CitationNeeded|CitationNeeded]] ([[User talk:CitationNeeded|talk]]) 18:40, 28 April 2018 (EDT)
:According to {{wp|Schoolhouse Rock!|this}}, the episodes with those songs aired before those subjects were created, meaning the similarities are most likely coincidences. --{{User:TheFlameChomp/sig}} 18:45, 28 April 2018 (EDT)

== The Owl and Co. ==
I've found a reference of it. First of all, the Owl and the Chick played a game, they used helmets to connect themselves to the game, when they collected items and jumped, the sounds were from the SNES games. After beating themselves up, they've got into the game. They reached a boss. The boss looked similar to a Chain Chomp. --[[Special:Contributions/83.156.220.80|83.156.220.80]] 03:29, 3 July 2018 (EDT)
:Ps: Anyone got these references? --[[Special:Contributions/83.156.220.80|83.156.220.80]] 03:42, 3 July 2018 (EDT)

== Rabbids Invasion ==

In the episode Gorilla Rabbid, in the scene where the Gorilla Rabbid take the female Rabbid cop to the top of the ramp, the Gorilla Rabbid starts throwing barrels at the male Rabbid cop, where it well cut to a retro style of that scene. As if you can probably tell, this is a reference to Donkey Kong.

== The Star of Christmas ==

No, I'm not talking about the artifact. I'm saying that the Mario reference in the VeggieTales Star of Christmas episode might be an unintentional coincidence based on speculation and assumption. Sure, both Mario and "The Princess and the Plumber" in VeggieTales involve a princess and a plumber, but the storylines are completely different. Most Mario games see Mario and/or Luigi rescue Princess Peach from Bowser. The Princess and the Plumber's plot in VeggieTales, on the other hand, goes a little something like this...<br>
"On the night before Christmas, the princess' sink backs up and so of course she calls the plumber. Now unbeknownst to the plumber, the princesses' pipes are magic pipes. So, as he's working on them on Christmas Eve, he is visited by the 4 fairy peas of Christmas and the Sugar-Plumber fairy."

The ending is also completely different, too:<br>
"The plumber has defeated the evil Monkey King in a plunger duel, the Sugar-Plumber Fairy has turned the wicked building inspector into a newt, thereby declaring the castle inhabitable and reducing the need for flood insurance and for the first time, the princess realizes that it's the plumber that she's loved all along."

Not only that, but I watched the Behind the Scenes feature on the DVD and they didn't mention "The Princess and the Plumber" being an intentional reference to Mario in any capacity...unless I'm mis-remembering something.

All-in-all, just a coincidence and probably based on assumption, but I don't want to remove it just yet. What do you think? Is it an intentional reference or a pure coincidence? &ndash; [[User:Owencrazyboy9|Owencrazyboy9]] ([[User talk:Owencrazyboy9|talk]]) 16:06, August 6, 2019 (EDT)
:It seems coincidental to me. The only similarities are the mere presence of a princess and a plumber, otherwise there's no actual references to the game. While there is mention of a monkey king which could be interpreted as a reference to Donkey Kong, it could also easily be a reference to the mouse king from the Nutcracker, which wouldn't surprise me at all given the mention of an obvious sugar plum fairy spoof in the same sentence. --{{User:Waluigi Time/sig}} 17:31, August 6, 2019 (EDT)

I know that this has been deleted and finished a while ago, but there is conclusive proof that the Mario references [https://twitter.com/philvischer/status/1334679848363679747 were completely coincidental.] [[User:Ma321|Ma321]] ([[User talk:Ma321|talk]]) 22:59, December 16, 2022 (EST)

No, they should not. That's not how the world works. I've seen books at the library and movies and TV shows at Barnes and noble and they don't have that stuff with the word the being the first word of the media, but rather the next word.

== BoJack Horseman-Mr. Peanut-Butter's Boos ==

I was told to put what I discover on the talk page and I have more to discuss later on. Anyways in the BoJack episode, Mr. Peanut-Butter's Boos, when Katrina confronts Peanut-Butter by telling him she not having any fun, Mr. Peanut-Butter starts making Donkey Kong noises from Mario Kart 64. I cannot be the only one who noticed this.-Tommypezmaster

:Or it's just a sound that just sounds like it (just watched the episode and it doesn't). The shot of Jessica Biel also looks nothing like the ''Luigi's Mansion'' boxart.

== Noticed for Sound effects heard in animation/cartoons ==

As I have noticed this, Bowser's roar sound and Donkey Kong's gorilla grunting sound from Mario Kart 64/first three Mario Party games/Mario Tennis (N64)/Mario Golf 64 heard in many animation/cartoons was most likely both stock sound effects. Same happens with Mario warping into something sound and Boo's laugh/Bowser's laugh from Super Mario 64 which is also both stock sound effects.--[[Special:Contributions/98.255.152.166|98.255.152.166]] 01:40, November 4, 2020 (EST)

== The Tom and Jerry Show: Kitten Grifters ==

I actually stumbled upon an actual reference this time. In Kitten Grifters, When Tom and Jerry go after a crimial in a construction site, They come to pillars w/ barrels on them. Video Game music plays in the background and they bump into barrels, which causes them to roll down the pillars. A DOnkey Kong Reference.-Tommypezmaster

== Alpha Betas ==
For those who have not heard about it, it is a new animated show partially created by YouTuber Vanossgaming and three others. As of now only a pilot episode has been aired on Vanoss's YouTube channel, and it is awaiting to be picked up by another company. The episode itself had a quick spoof of the Donkey Kong arcade game in it. I'm bringing this up because I'm wondering, is this the sort of thing we would list in this page or any of these other "List of Mario references" pages? {{User:Keyblade Master/sig}} 21:01, March 14, 2021 (EDT)
