Revealing mistake: When Bunsun walks up to Dr. Nerdnik to free him, an animation mistake is noticable. Bunsun is far away and she walks up to him, and during this whole sequence her body is in front of Dr. Nerdnik, according to the camera's view. (00:04:55)

Love 'Em and Leave 'Em - S1-E8

Continuity mistake: After Luigi says "Let's play cupid," he peeks around the corner along with Peach and Toad down at Mario going down the aisle with his "bride-to-be." Luigi, as expected, has been wearing green all episode, but when you see them peeking around the corner, Luigi's hat has become red. In the very next shot showing Luigi from behind, his hat has returned to green. (00:14:40)

Robo Koopa - S1-E52

Continuity mistake: When Mario, Luigi, Bunsun and Dr. Nerdnik are about to be crushed by the electric pole, when Luigi moans "we're doomed," he is in front of Mario. In the next shot, Mario is looking ahead while saying "doomed, schmoomed." In this same shot, Mario pulls Luigi over to a nearby fire hydrant, and Luigi moves onscreen from Mario's right. Therefore, Luigi has changed position. (00:07:10)

Robo Koopa - S1-E52

Continuity mistake: As the fight between Koopa and the Plumbinator begins, in one shot the camera zooms in to Koopa while under the Plumbinator's legs. Robo Koopa's color is light blue in this shot, when it is dark blue in the rest of the episode. (00:10:15)

Other mistake: On the "Mario's Greatest Movie Moments" DVD of this series, from the main menu, go into the trivia game. The fifth question asks you about the Super Mario Bros. Super Show episode 'Count Koopula.' It asks you "What's room number that the Mario Bros. were put into in Koopula's Castle?" It's supposed to say "What's THE room number that the Mario Bros. were put into in Koopula's Castle?"

Show generally

Question: Why was Toad's color palette sometimes way different, primarily in the first couple of episodes? Why didn't they bother changing this with the final results? It's relatively inconsistent on what palette is used in each episode, despite the fact the more recognizable of the two (white mushroom with red spots along with a variety of coloring in clothes) is shown much more often than the other (red mushroom with white spots along with the majority of his clothes being red and white).
