Episodes
Most episodes are 22 minutes long, some having 11 minute segments. The show creators wanted to have their own spin on things yet still wants it to Respect the series. Specials are Episodes with a seasonal link or are episodes that have something do to with something big.

Production
After the release of The Super Mario Bros Movie, reports emerged that a New Mario TV Series based on the film would be released, production of the project went underway in 2019 with Dan Fogel and John Mulaney attached to voice Mario & Luigi respectively. However it was cancelled despite being officially announced after the release of the movie.

Despite this however, Nintendo wanted a new Mario TV Series to strengthen the brand and sales for the IP. On March 10th 2021, a press release was revealed that unveiled that The Super Mario Show would premier on Netflix with [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Teen_Titans_Go! Teen Titans Go!] creators Aaron Horvath and Michael Jelenic serving series directors. Charles Martient who voices Mario and Luigi in the Mario games, responded to a tweet on Twitter that he wouldn't be reprising the role in the Netflix series and would be recasted for undisclosed reasons.

Horvath and Jelenic wanted the series to be seen as the “definitive adaption” in terms of both tone and how to adapt the series games into Episodes in a similar vein to Batman The Animated Series or the 2012 incarnation of the Ninja Turtles.

Jelenic and Horvath while writing on the show wanted their work on the series to be the opposite of the "irreverent" Teen Titans Go!, aiming to develop a faithful adaptation of the games, which they both felt had not been done before, as well as something "more emotional" than Teen Titans Go!. "When people probably first heard our names attached to the series, they expected we'd do the Teen Titans Go! treatment to Mario," said Jelenic. "But every project we come to, we make new choices depending on who the audience is and what we're going for." Horvath asserted that Nintendo involved themselves with every aspect of the production, "from story to visual development to the animation.”

They also wanted to reflect how gamers win in the games by not giving up in spite of making mistakes, turning that into a character trait for the show’s portrayal of Mario. The duo decided to refrain from Peach being captured as a major plot point for most episodes saying it was “too straightforward” and instead drew inspiration from Super Mario 3D World and its portrayal of Peach as a playable character.

Animation wise, the show took heavy cues and inspiration from the official 2D Mario art, the Super Mario Adventures Comics and the official Artwork for the Mario & Luigi Series as they were seen as the most expression form of Mario Media. Originally, the series was planned to use CGI akin to most 3D Mario renders and games, but was ultimately cut due to budgetary and creative concerns.
