Louis Vincent Albano (July 29, 1933 – ) often referred to as Captain Lou Albano, is an ex-wrestler who portrayed Mario in the live action segments of the The Super Mario Bros. Super Show! and voiced him in the cartoon. He worked alongside Danny Wells who portrayed Luigi.

Captain Lou appeared as himself in the live-action segment "Captain Lou Is Missing". In the segment, Cyndi Lauper announced that Captain Lou had gone missing when she had planned to go on a picnic lunch with him, and instead found rubber bands for his beard and a note that read "Dear Cyndi, I'm sorry that I'm not here but I've gone for good".

Cyndi formed a search party with Mario and Luigi at Mario Brothers Plumbing along with several volunteers and search teams stationed around the world, which ultimately failed. When Mario went out to pick some pizza, Captain Lou showed up and met Luigi. When Cyndi asked him why he said he left, Lou saw his note and said that part of it had been cut off and the last part should've read "I've gone for good fried chicken. Back in an hour.". When he and Cyndi left, Luigi figured that Mario was going to be disappointed for not getting to meet Captain Lou, as he claimed Mario was his biggest fan.
