The Saturday Supercade

From the Super Mario Wiki

The Saturday Supercade was a Saturday morning cartoon show, which is notable for marking Mario's first appearance in an animated series. Produced by Ruby-Spears, it aired on CBS from 1983 to 1985 for two seasons. It featured animated segments based off of popular arcade games, Donkey Kong, Donkey Kong Jr., Q*Bert, Pitfall, Space Ace, Kangaroo, and Frogger. In the Donkey Kong segment, Mario and his niece, Pauline, were on a constant quest to capture Donkey Kong, who had escaped from Mario's circus. In the Donkey Kong Jr. segment, Donkey Kong Jr. traveled around the country with a biker named Bones looking for his father, likely tying into the chase around the world that made up Donkey Kong's own segment.

As only four different segments would be shown in one episode, the addition of the Kangaroo and Space Ace segments for the show's second season called for several first season segments to be dropped, those being Donkey Kong Jr., Pitfall and Frogger.
