When I was but a wee geek, I was obsessed with everything Nintendo. So naturally I didn’t miss the Super Mario Bros. show with Captain Lou Albano. Occasionally besides showing a Mario cartoon, or awkward live action with Lou as a very Brooklyn (Flatbush) inspired Mario, they would also show a legend of Zelda cartoon.
This was a treat because it came on infrequently and It was just so different from Mario.
