Club Mario
During the summer of 1990, Club Mario replaced the Mario Bros. live-action segments of the The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!. This featured "extreme" Mario-obsessed teenagers goofing around, and in at least one episode, running around the DiC studios and harassing DiC executive producer Andy Heyward. Coombs and Delany played siblings Tommy and Tammy Treehugger.
