Robo Koopa - S1-E52

Revealing mistake: In the first chase scene, the backgrounds are usually repeated in close-up shots, because you can see a sudden jump in the background animation. (00:00:40 - 00:02:25)

Yoshi

Robo Koopa - S1-E52

Continuity mistake: When the brothers, Toad and the Princess are dashing away from Koopa, there is a shot with the four of them running offscreen. Notice the background as the camera pans to Koopa. The next shot shows a very different background. (00:01:45)

Yoshi

Answer: "Club Mario" was reruns of the original show repackaged with new live action segments. It was a cheap way to present the old animated episodes as a new show. Club Mario was incredibly unpopular and eventually reruns of the original show with the Captain Lou Albano segments were aired in its place.
