Why It Used To Deserve a Bowl of Spaghetti This series is one of the most influential machinima channels (and to this day) along with many others like RubberFruit, DasBoSchitt and the late Kitty0706. Great video editing and animations thanks to the use of the N64 emulator, Project 64 used for Super Mario 64 (as well as Mario Party 3 for the Wario, Waluigi, Donkey Kong and Daisy models and GoldenEye 007 for Chris and Swagmaster) and Garry's Mod (despite the overuse of the game in later years). Instead of Mario being his normal happy-go-lucky self, SMG4 instead makes him a comic relief character. SMG4 also inserts himself as one of the main characters in the series, who is an accurate and faithful fictional representation of Luke Lerdwichagul himself. Like Disney, Looney Tunes, Hanna-Barbera, The Simpsons, Family Guy, South Park, Peppa Pig, SpongeBob SquarePants and DreamWorks, the series has made a huge ensemble of characters including some that are considered fan favorites such as: SMG4 himself Mario Bob Bobowski (originally in his debut, he started off as some kind of Scrappy-type (well written version) character to the gang, especially SMG4 who he always begs to put him in a video starring himself, or at the very least, have a main role to eventually getting his wish later on becoming one of the best characters of the series who's still apart of the gang to this day) Fishy Boopkins (same character development as Bob, since he went from an attention whore, begging people to be his friend to later becoming an official friend to SMG4, Mario and the whole gang) Meggy Spletzer (before becoming a creator's pet to the series during the downfall) Shroomy Chris and Swagmaster696969696969 SMG3 FightingMario54321 (FM for short) Nintendofan997/X Luigi Toad Bowser (especially before his flanderization in 2018) Wario Waluigi Professor E. Gadd (especially during 2016-2017 as he became a scene stealer done right) Sonic the Hedgehog Dr. Robotnik While certain other characters don't have as much main roles as the others, they are pretty great, and like The Amazing World of Gumball's later seasons, they get to have their own episodes most of the time and even when they don't, they're hysterical, yet memorable and likable as much as the main characters. These characters in question include running gag/joke characters such as: Steve Wizard Rock Tinky Winky, Dipsy, Laa-Laa and Po (Who, like Mario, are portrayed as comic-reliefs and they're WAY better than their original counterparts. Especially Po) Old Man Hobo (who at one point served as a mascot for the bloopers before being overthrown by Mario, Meggy and the original characters in the post-2017 era) The Police Toast Guy Gourmet Guy Weegee Crazy Raisin Lady Mario Recolors Chain Chomp Frankie Ben Slendy Freddy Fazbear Chica Bonnie Foxy Balloon Boy William Afton Puppet Granny Koopa (Bowser's Grandma) As well as other Mario characters like: Yoshi Dr. Mario Donkey Kong Princess Daisy Rosalina Various Mario enemies Bowser Jr. Lakitu (despite being the first character to suffer from Chuck Cunningham Syndrome immediately after the start of the series, he's one of the few non-main role Mario character to have a personality as he did more than just be there to record Mario's every move. He once served as a foil to Mario's stupidity, idiocy and childishness just like SMG4) Toadsworth (who has the most roles out of all the recurring Mario characters in the series, making him the closest thing to a main character behind Professor E. Gadd) It spawned many great spin-off series videos, with some of them serving as a staple to the series despite some on the other hand being short lived such as: War of the Fat Italians Ssenmodnar R****ded64 (R64 for short, despite being a little too similar to the main series' videos, until it's end in 2017 thanks to being targeted by YouTube's policy reasons) Stupid Mario (formerly apart of R****ded64) If Mario was in... The Wacky Wario Bros. Sonic the Derphog Guards N' R****ds Cooking with Bowser and Mario Super Pokeman 64 Meet the Cast It even had a spin off channel starring Mario titled; TheAwesomeMario, which originally started off as a fictional channel to later becoming a real thing in 2017 (despite it's huge missed potentional thanks to not even lasting a year), where it's not usually just shorts starring, well, Mario, but also (short lived) spin-offs of it's own, too such as: A Day in the Life Of... (Which explores the everyday lives of Mario's friends) Mario's EXTRAS (Which are "deleted scenes" of the main series' episodes that are usually uploaded a day after their release) Boopkins and Bob (Which stars the Spike and Garo on misadventure-centric plots) As well as three new (albiet in short form) Wacky Wario Bros. episodes and only one Guards N' R****ds episode. Had TheAwesomeMario still continued, the series would've had more episodes of them and other spin-offs left in the dust. The series has lots of funny sound effects used in the series, along with reused audio/voice clips from other shows, movies, games, anime and even song lyrics! These include but not limited to: Note: This list of links to the audios and voice clips are only from their original sources they came from and not from one of the SMG4 videos themselves. If any of these videos where the links take you get deleted, taken down or removed in the future, please either find a different link or remove the link, but keep the link in question. Also, unknown sounds are not allowed on the list until it's discovered where it came from and will be removed if you put them in the list. Thank you. "Mamaf*cker!" (This iconic voice clip of Mario is actually an edited combination between Mario saying "Mamamia!" from Mario Kart 64 and Mario saying "Fire!" and "Hammer!" from Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga but with the a censor bleep placed between to make it sound like he's swearing) Anthony Padilla's scream (taken from the Smosh video, THAT DAMN PUNISHMENT!; used for certain characters like SMG4 himself) Squidward Tentacles' scream (taken from the SpongeBob SquarePants episode, Have You Seen This Snail?) "SHE'S A BITCH!" (taken from Tourettes Guy; usually said by Mario to describe what he really thinks about Princess Peach) "MAMAF*CKER!" Qualities While still good as gold, 2016 and 2017 (the former not so much though) were when the series started to decline. Some people believe that 2016 might be this because of the debuts of Fishy Boopkins and Bob, many spin-offs were getting less episodes while If Mario was in... videos were getting more recognition, certain characters like the Mario recolors started to lose roles and Garry's Mod was starting to become used more often. Oh, and did we mention that it's home to one of the most infamous SMG4 episode of this entire era? 2017 is most especially this to some fans because of the debut of Meggy, who at first was only created just to balance out the SMG4 cast as they're mainly males, while other female characters like Peach only served as joke characters, and Shroomy, who's the first original character created for the series. And just before Meggy's introduction, the series became victim of YouTube's censorship policy meaning they are forced to tone down the edgy humor and ending R****ded64 after Mario's Boat Trip, shortening the title to "R64", and merging the tone of the series with the main series. Not only that, Garry's Mod started to become more used than before, more characters like SMG3 and Chris and Swag suffered from lack appearences, Ssenmodnar uploaded it's 12th and final episode while others that aren't If Mario was in... and Stupid Mario were nowhere to be found, while new ones either didn't even last a year or went dormant after even an episode or two (with only a couple of them getting one episode that year, another one in early-2018, and then ignored after that) such as The Mario Channel, Mushrooms & Morons, and the entirety of "TheAwesomeMario". Thankfully as repeated, these two years are the least of the series' problems. It would only get worse by the time the series' introduced more OC's and female characters to the cast... Just because the machinima's got a large cast of characters, doesn't mean it has no unlikable characters: Princess Peach is pretty much one of the worst characters of the whole series because of how she always gets angry easily, attacks and lashes out at everyone (most aimed at Mario) over her castle a mess or getting destroyed, being told no, or even just hearing the most slightest insults. She suffered from character derailment as her personality got more and more worse each year. Toadette is an abusive girlfriend towards Toad to the point where she's his biggest fear. Starman3 Enzo, starting around late 2013, went from a minor, yet good friend of SMG4, Mario and Starman3 to a crazed maniac who tried to get his murderous revenge on Mario all because he ruined his birthday. Villager is an insane psychopath who, like Enzo, tried to get revenge on Mario over a stupid reason, that of which in question being Tom Nook accidentally dropping his Doritos into the river. But unlike Enzo though, it wasn't even Mario's fault that he lost his Doritos in the first place. There are a lot of bad episodes here and there.

"MAMAF*CKER!" Qualities That Should Get Blasted By A Waluigi Launcher This era had lot of changes that make it less funny than the classic era, and had lot of bad changes such as SMG4 redesign (this will be explained later in another pointer). The humor, thanks to the channel becoming verified and monetized, has started to become more too family friendly with its humor and writing being cartoony and too many elements from memes and anime (the latter especially because of the addition of original characters). There a lot of bad episodes (some might probably be worse than Mario Joins the Circus) such as: Doki Doki Mario Club (Which started the downfall of the series) Boys VS Girls (One of the worst episodes of the whole series) The Resurrection The Melony Felony Most of the Anime Arc episodes If Mario Was The Last Man On Earth (also counts the worst) DO NOT ENTER Mario Does The Chores Mario's Mask of Madness (Melony's debut) The Day HE Arrived Mario Is Cancelled Mario Suffers Infinite Detension Food Wars Meggy's Part-Time Job Clown Fever Most of the Lawsuit Arc episodes How To Train Your Mario All I Want For Christmas Is Mario To FREAKIN BEHAVE (which ended Season 12 in the poor note) SMG4… Are You Ok? MAR10 Day It's Gonna Be Perfect Mario's Tunnel Of Doom We Interrupt This Broadcast Ready to Ride?... Western Spaghetti THE NEW CASTLE!! Mario VS Skibidi Toilet We Don’t Talk About What Happened In The Elevator The Infestation Christmas Wars (Which ended both Season 13 and Celestle-Notley Smith's performance as Tari on a poor note) The Day My Arm Went Psycho SMG4 Doesn’t Meme For 1 Second Mr. Puzzles' Incredible Game Show Spectacular! CEO OF RIZZ Mario’s Plane Trip PUZZLEVISON The Meme Wave Mini-Arc (MEME HUNTERS, SMG4 and the Meme Factory, Despicable Mr. Puzzles and A Night At SMG4's) I Put Mario In Danger For Views Mr Puzzles' Lowest Point Mr. Puzzles Clubhouse 8Welcome to Puzzle Park War Of The Fat Italians 2024 2019, 2021 and 2022 are considered the worst of these years: 2019 being the year where Meggy started to have more main roles than before and turning her into a human OC (in Final Hours), Toad and Bowser became the next victims of being put under the bus along with even more beloved fan favorites than before. The S word became the next profanity to get censored, only having two Stupid Mario episodes and one If Mario Was In... episode, and for having a few bad episodes like Boys vs Girls. 2021, although not as worse, is known for the death of Axol, the weakest of the War of the Fat Italians episodes, Garry's Mod becoming more overused than usual and using full voice lines and Uberduck more than voice clips and text. 2022 is the worst year of the bunch because it had too much episodes with Meggy, Saiko, Tari and Melony's roles shoved in the plot even moreso than previous years, the introduction of even more unwanted new characters like Karen, Depresso and Kaizo, and the decision of giving SMG4, SMG3, Boopkins and Bob redesigns, thus turning them into OC's themselves, more videos where PJ64 isn't used at all, the B word becoming censorship's next victim, and home to having the most worst episodes out of all the years in this downfall. Some unlikable characters such as: Saiko, while not really that bad, is an ax-crazy girlfriend brought to life by Boopkins who used to be one of the series villains, but the only problem is that she was only evil for three episodes (four if you count Mario's Jackass). Her post-Luigi's Lesson personality isn't any better either, as her character is basically the series equivalent to Teen Titans Go!'s version of Raven as she gets annoyed extremely easily by her allies and attacks them for even the slightest of insults, especially Mario and Bob, and nobody ever calls her out for it. Lately since 2021, she started to have a really creepy obsession with KFC. Her voice clips can also get on your last nerve, as her lines are voice clips from Japanese dubs. She barely even speaks english outside of text, nor does she even have a real voice actress unlike Meggy, Tari, Melony and Karen. Melony is the worst of the female characters because her only trait is that she's a worshipper of Watermelons and likes sleeping so much, that she would attack or become an extreme crier if someone were to eat or destroy a watermelon. Not to mention, that her voice (by Wolfychu) is sometimes annoying. While she's one of the few most likable of the female characters, Karen is just your generic "Woman of a Thousand Jobs" character, similar to Miss Rabbit from Peppa Pig, Brooklyn T. Guy from SuperMarioLogan and Larry Needlemyer from The Amazing World of Gumball. Francis is just as worse as he was on Super Paper Mario, but this was at least intentional since Luke and Kevin hate him just as much as Paper Mario fans do. Clench is literally just Tari's living arm (of all things), and aside from being a good friend to her, he's nothing but just a poorly written comic relief and filler character combined. Depresso is a rip-off of Chuckles the Clown from Toy Story 3 but with a bad depiction of depression. Princess Peach, while she has been unlikable since the start of the Super Mario 64 bloopers, though did get a little better in 2018 only to go down the drain a year later, has her reached even extreme levels of character derailment where her outrages towards Mario has become even more and more worse than ever before. She also makes this extremely earbleeding sound effect everytime she explodes at Mario. In "addition", some of the pre-existing characters have been flanderized although thankfully, most of them are still likable enough to not deserve a loathsome character article: Starting from 2019 (beginning with Mario's Big Chungus Hunt), Meggy went from a being just a flawless, yet, helpful member of the gang in 2017-2018 to a straight up Creator's Pet to the series and has become way too flawless for her own good (sure, her character as a whole in 2017 and 2018 to some extent was problematic to some fans, but at least it wasn't that bad compared to Jeffy's debut in 2016). Like the other OC characters that came after her and Shroomy, she was constantly shoehorned into episodes as main roles that would've been better concepts if she wasn't even in it. While her former speaking voice actress, Lizzie Freeman did a good job voicing her, her current one, Elsie Lovelock on the other hand, is extremely annoying and nasally, sounding like if Uzi Doorman (another character she voiced) never grew out of her phase of being an always-angry bitch. And dare we mention Meggy’s constant anger issues, the questionable relationship she has with Mario at times, which only became worse after the Revelations arc where she started abusing Mario over every little thing, and the fact she shows no effects from being involved from events that could have traumatised her for life, like at the end of Western Spaghetti where she ends up perfectly fine after getting tortured by being shot by her idol for a month straight with no breathers? It got to the point where fans have agreed that SMG4 would still be the same without her. Bowser went from like his video game counterpart but with a comedic side where on one hand, is Mario's nemesis who kidnaps Peach constantly while on the other has times where he and Mario have their team ups from time to time (e.g. the Cooking with Bowser and Mario series and main series episodes like Son of a bowser., Shell Shocked, AREA 64 and Stupid Mario Odyssey 2) but is still evil and sometimes even teams up with SMG3 in some episodes (such as two evil friends., Bad stars and Shoot to the Observatory in the sky), to a good guy whose villainous traits got completely erased. He's one of the few characters who uses his Garry's Mod model more than his SM64 model. This face he makes used to be rolling on the floor to look at as a running gag in the old series, but nowadays everytime we see him on screen, it's always his normal expression making it so uncomfortable to look at, that it's not even a running gag anymore. Although, he's only had very few episodes where he's unlikable such as Boys vs Girls. Mario not only became more stupid and unsympathetic than he was before, but later in the 2020s he became more prone to playing straight man to some characters like Fishy Boopkins, Bob, Luigi and Tari and losing his temper over certain stuff and would outright destroy anybody who'd bring it up like Among Us. For instance in Mario Reacts To Nintendo Memes 5, where he threatened to kill poor innocent Frankie over an Among Us meme, which is pretty hypocritical because he had nothing against them when he met them the first time in If Mario Was AMONG US... and even had a great cooperation with the Green Crewmate. But now he just acts like he straight up changed his mind and has an extreme hatred over them. He also became a lot more unrootable in certain episodes like How To Train Your Mario. Luigi has become more easily scared of everything than before. He's also become even more of a chew toy by his own brother, where he always screams at him over stuff like whatever things he likes or doesn't like that Mario thinks vice-versa, insulting him for being a wimp, physically using him as a tool to solve problems and putting him in so much pain, danger and even (to lesser extents) straight up killing him (usually by accident). SMG4 himself became more caring about his popularity and his computer more than friends sometimes, and he took this way too far in early 2023, where in the "IT'S GOTTA BE PERFECT" saga, he locked himself in the secret slide room, refused to be invited to Mar10 Day, lost it after listening to Mario and Meggy beating up Wario, and throwing him at the router, raised his voiced at everyone, and kicked him (Wario), Waluigi and everyone else except for Mario and the gang. It even got to the point where taking his editing obsession way too overboard is the reason why Peach's Castle got destroyed. Thankfully, not only did he snap out of it, but even before and after then, he's still likable either way. Fishy Boopkins became a childish worshipper of anime (especially if they're magical girl ones). Though he's also still likable thankfully in fact, you might also consider this good flanderization. The new characters over the years have stolen the spotlights from lots of classic beloved characters who aren't SMG4, Mario, Luigi, Fishy Boopkins, Meggy, Shroomy (although lately has been getting less major roles), SMG3 (Post-YouTube Arc) and Chris and Swagmaster (Post-Mario's Prison Escape) Some of these OC characters are created or added to the main cast for (speculated) dumb reasons: Saiko was only created because the Garry's Mod models for the Doki Doki Literature Club characters weren't made yet until later in 2018. The irony here is that Luke could've just waited until Monika, Yuri and Sayori's models published so he wouldn't have to create Saiko (It also could've been a great If Mario Was In... episode rather than just a Fishy Boopkins episode). If not, he could've also just improvised by using a different pre-existing character and pretend that character is Monika, Yuri and Sayori instead, just like he did in If Mario was in... Cuphead where he used various characters as the games' bosses since none of their models were on the workshop yet such as using Ariel as Calamaria, or in If Mario Was In... Nickelodeon where he used Shari from Animal Crossing as Boots the Monkey and Stewie Griffin and Milhouse Van Houten as Tommy Pickles and Chuckie Finster. Tari was only added to the main cast as a promotion for their first original series, Meta Runner, which was still in production and upcoming around that time. Melony (who first appeared as a watermelon, supposed to be serving as a Meggy knock off) becoming a human was just another excuse to add more original female characters to the ensemble. What Mario said in her debut as a human is exactly what we were all thinking about the whole female adding trend. and boy, is he right. Karen, aside from being a generic "New Job as the Plot Demands" character, the idea of adding a cat girl is just a lame excuse to appeal to Furry Fandoms. Because of them, the classic characters that we loved so dearly have been demoted to recurring, minor and cameo characters such as: Toad Bowser SMG3 (Until The YouTube Arc) Chris and Swagmaster (Until Mario's Prison Escape) Wario Waluigi Toast Guy Old Man Hobo (Especially early in the series' decline) The Teletubbies Sonic the Hedgehog Dr. Eggman Dr. Pootis Wizard Rock Steve The Police Frankie FM X A majority of the Mario recolors Lakitu (Even though his appearences had been declining way back in the classic era) Toadsworth Toadette (Despite being one of the series' unlikable characters, she's at least more funny compared to Peach) Crazy Raisins Lady Professor E. Gadd Slendy Even characters who were already side characters to begin with have been put under the bus, too such as: Yoshi Donkey Kong Princess Peach (Even though she's unlikable) Princess Daisy Chain Chomp Bowser Jr. Dr. Mario The Bullies Various Mario enemies and bosses Enzo (Although he's also unlikable) Granny Koopa Freddy Fazbear Chica Bonnie Foxy Purple Man Puppet The new OC characters, especially the female ones are constantly shoehorned into episodes as main characters, the worst offender being if the episode plots that have great concepts that would've fit even better in the early years if they weren't in them at all. Especially if the thumbnail has only Mario in it, but the OC characters are in them as main roles. You could just remove and replace them with different characters and the plot would've been different. For example: In Mario's Prison Escape, you could just replace Meggy, Saiko and Tari with SMG4, Toad and Bowser instead, showing that SMG4 would still be the same without the new characters. To add more insult to injury, whenever a new character makes a debut in one episode, it would only take a weekend or two for that character to make another appearence due to popular demand as if it's some kind of unwritten rule. Like Jellystone!, Saiko, Tari, Melony, Karen and more female OC characters are only added as main characters just as an excuse to balance out the gender in SMG4's ensemble cast. Sometimes, the original characters can be seen as rip-offs to the classic characters, too: Saiko can be a rip-off of Princess Peach and Toadette since all three of them are pretty wrathful, can hit people the second they hear even the least offensive insult and never take no for answer and would threaten to kill them if they don't change their minds right away. Like in The Mario Hustle where Saiko kicked SMG3's door open and INTENSIVELY GRABBED HIM AND SCREAMED AT HIM TO BUY HER ROCKS OR ELSE rather than just go looking for someone else who'd love to, Mario and The Diss Track where she painfully grabbed Luigi's arm EXTREMELY HARD, telling him not to touch her when all he did was to pat her on the back, Mario Does The Chores where she threw a vacuum cleaner at Mario, sleeping on the job, yelling at him to get up from his butt and keep working and WHAT IF...? where she sent Bob hospitalizing (albeit jump cutted) simply for saying something "nice" about her butt. All of these are something that Peach and Toadette would do. Melony is seen as a female rip-off of Toast Guy because they both have an obsession with a certain type of food, except that Toast Guy's simp for toast is handled way better than Melony. Mr. Monitor can be seen as a rip-off of the Mario policemen. Depresso could possibly rip-off both Old Man Hobo and Steve because for Old Man Hobo, they're both homeless, and pop up in filthy areas like dumpsters, alleys and sewers and for Steve because they're both big fans of a certain animal (rats and chickens) and they would both go into a frenzy, panic or wipe the floor with anyone who would harm them. Karen can also be a clone of Toad as well, because they're both grumpy, are forced to focus on their jobs (Karen's being over a hundred jobs she has, especially store ones as a clerk or employee and Toad's being to sit all day long in the corner of the castle's main entrance) which they hate, and are bugged by Mario (and especially him) and his friends' antics. And did we mention that Toad wasn't even in Mario's Plane Trip, but Karen was, putting a dent into the classic "Mario forcing SMG4 and Toad to go on a trip with him" plot? While it's not really confirmed why, but it's possible that the reason these new characters (and Meggy) pushed all the old characters aside, as well as other additions and changes like turning Old Man Hobo, SMG4, SMG3, Boopkins and Bob into OC's, replacing Peach's Castle with the SMG4 Castle might've been because Luke Lerdwichagul wanted to focus more on the channel as something new rather than just a Mario parody channel. The Arcs, while not really that bad, are too long as they last for months, missed oppertunities for SMG4 to do episodes centering on certain events as well as holiday episodes. The Music Credits got removed in favor of sponsers, having fans looking for the unidentified music used in the series themselves. Thankfully, the wikia has their own music list for each episode, but not all the tracks used in each episode are shown. And while on the topic of music, certain music used in the series such as songs like N.W.A's F Tha Police, Bee Gee's Stayin' Alive and most of SpongeBob SquarePants and Ren and Stimpy's Associated Production Music tracks (including most used tracks such as Geoffrey Bastow's Daytime Drama and Syd Dale's Gunning for Danger even though those two were only used in two SpongeBob episodes each once (those respectively being Dumped and Sun Bleached)) were either underused, no longer used or to lesser extents, pitched edited to avoid copyright. And this is sad, because some of the music people listen to are because they came from SMG4. YouTube's policy censorship has gotten even worse than usual, as now they censored the F and S words. Hell, lately they even censored the even smaller curse words such as "B*tch". While the F and S words were bleeped before in the older years, those were only because they were ripped from other content that aren't allowed to say them to begin with (such as Smosh, Dorkly and Family Guy). Because of this, SMG4 can barely do anymore edgy humor such as being allowed to say even stronger slurs and words like the N word and R@pe. And those words actually worked well back in the old series more than anything, or anywhere else. But thanks to the policies (which has been stuck to the series since 2017), it's slowly turning SMG4 into a webseries for teens and younger Mario fans rather than only for adults. And SMG4 is supposed to be for adults only. Because of
