King Koopas Kool Kartoons

Show Summary

Aired: 1989 - 1989
Show Type: Live Action
Country of Origin: US

King Koopa's Kool Kartoons was a local, live-action children's television show broadcast in Southern California during the holiday season of 1989/1990. The show starred King Koopa (also known as Bowser), the central arch-villain from Nintendo's popular Super Mario Bros. video game series. The 30-minute program was originally broadcast during the after-school afternoon time-slots on Los Angeles-based KTTV Fox 11.

Because of its limited broadcast area and brief appearance, the show is largely forgotten in the greater Super Mario Bros. series.

I recently discovered that this show was inspired by a similar one that aired on TV in Spain (I discovered it on a Blogger site. I can't remember which site exactly. I believe Mark Evanier's website, www.newsfromme.com, has a link to it. That's probably where I came across it.)

Btw, that Koopa costume looks like something out of the same division of the Henson Workshop that worked on the earlier TMNT movies. Hey, that brings up an interesting idea for a MUGEN SG challenge: you think the Ninja Turtles could kick Koopa's ass?
