NOTE: You can edit this page and add any reasons you want, but no vandalism or redeeming qualities, please.

ANOTHER NOTE: Mario's Random Stuff is rated TV-Y7-FV on Nickelodeon (For some reason) but on Comedy Central it's TV-MA-S-V-D-L


 * -|1="Possibly the world's WORST "kid-friendly" animated cartoon!"

- Roger Craig Smith before announcing his departure from the show


 * -|2="This show literately makes me lose brain cells every second I watch it! Okay yeah sure, episodes pre "Sonic's Huge Crime Spree" may be not AS bad, but at least it doesn't show me numb-inducing shit like this! [A clip from Among Us In Real Life plays where Mario fucks a girl] Yeah, not as bad as the number 1 spot, but definitely close. Speaking of which, onto number 1!"

 * -|3="This show is incredibly similar to that of The Crazy Ass Group Show! They did a crossover recently, anyway, this show is without a doubt one of the worst Nickelodeon shows, would not recommend this one. Especially to fans of Mario, Sonic, and TMNT."

- - PhantomStrider Mario's Random Stuff is a 2013  “kid-friendly” animated series created by Sunian Faheal, and Major and Tony Holley that aired on Nickelodeon, TeenNick, Nicktoons, and currently streams on Paramount+. It is a crossover between Mario, Sonic, TMNT, and later in 2017, Jojo Siwa.

Plot
Mario, Sonic, Mikey, and Bow Bow (later in season 2) go on numerous adventures, and random things happen to them on their adventures.

Why It Gets Kind Of... Random (No Pun Intended)
'''Important Note: This show is extremely controversial, for reasoning explained below. No positive pointers/qualities will be allowed on this page. Anyone who adds redeeming qualities will have their edit reverted.'''
 * 1) The main flaw with this show is that it lacks a bunch of the charm and cleverness of the original Super Mario, Sonic the Hedgehog, and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles franchises. Heck, in a bunch of episodes, you will be witnessing a bunch of violence, profanity, or other things that are outright “adult” for TV-Y7 standards. And since this is in the show itself, it feels more like an adult-oriented parody than a show based on three franchises! This is exactly why the show fakes its rating just to trick kids into thinking that it’s rated TV-Y7 and the fact this is even a kids’ show is very strange.
 * 2) While Roger Craig Smith (Later Deven Mack) and Charles Martinet do an alright job at voicing Mario and Sonic, surprisingly there's bad voice acting for other characters, like Mikey who sounds really annoying and doesn't even sound like he did in TMNT 2012.
 * 3) * The fact that he's voiced by his voice actor in TMNT 2012 makes this even worse, it’s like he forgot how to even do his voice.
 * 4) Several bad/mediocre episodes, such as:
 * 5) *Random Stuff (Which started the series on a bad note)
 * 6) *Mikey Falls in Love
 * 7) *Mickey's Revenge
 * 8) *We Can't Find Sonic!
 * 9) *Swear Word Extravaganza (a controversial episode that started the trend of the show having vulgar language)
 * 10) *Spank It and Smack It 'till it jiggles
 * 11) *Sonic's Addiction (another controversial episode)
 * 12) *Sonic's Huge Crime Spree
 * 13) *Mario Gets Ready to Stop Sonic (An episode follow up to Sonic's Huge Crime Spree)
 * 14) *Darkspine Sonic VS Everyone (Depending on your view; a bad way to end season 1)
 * 15) *Meet Bow Bow Siwa (Depending on your view; started season 2 on a meh note)
 * 16) *Bow Bow VS Snuggles
 * 17) *Jojo Siwa (a rehash of the first episode of season 2)
 * 18) *Minnie Falls On Her Back and Gets Fucked in the Ass (Season 2's first controversial episode)
 * 19) *Gay People Committing Suicide Is Funny (another controversial season 2 episode)
 * 20) *Jojo Siwa vs. Light Yagami (a filler episode that also wasted a good premise)
 * 21) *Gallows of Hell
 * 22) *Penis Reciprocation
 * 23) *Sonic's Obsession
 * 24) *Fuck You Stupid Ass Haters KILL YOURSELF COMMIT SUICIDE RIGHT NOW (An EXTREMELY controversial episode for obvious reasons)
 * 25) *Generations (Depending on your view; Started season 3 on a mediocre note)
 * 26) *Fucked Up in Ohio
 * 27) *A Random Ass Crazy Crossover (a crossover with the equally bad The Crazy-Ass Group Show. By the way, TCAGS and MRS have different episode names for the crossover)
 * 28) *Rainmaker Jojo
 * 29) *Mikey in Wirral
 * 30) *Sonic’s Secret Diary
 * 31) *We’re Going To Brazil?
 * 32) *JOJO SIWA IS GAY?!
 * 33) *Time To Pay Back That Favor
 * 34) Development Hell and Executive Meddling: Back in 1997 when the show was being produced, they were planning to add 1987 Mikey into the bunch and air the show on CBS, but then 2003 came with the 2003 version of TMNT so they changed the script to make it more consistent with that version and put it on both CBS AND Fox. However, TMNT got rebooted again in 2012, leaving a terrible result.
 * 35) *The fact the pilot version of this show is way better, more kid-friendly, and more enjoyable than the actual show makes this even sadder, as this show had potential and got wasted.
 * 36) Extremely unlikable and/or flanderized characters such as:
 * 37) *Mario: He went from a Go-Lucky heroic plumber to a complete dumbass who likes playing GTA on his Xbox all the time.
 * 38) **That's pretty ironic, as Mario is owned by Nintendo so we have no clue why he is obsessed with his Xbox.
 * 39) *Sonic: He went from an egotistical and cocky but funny, heroic, and brave hedgehog, to a straight-up asshole who only saves others just to get praise.
 * 40) ** He was at his absolute worst in, Sonic's Huge Crime Spree, Mario gets ready to Stop Sonic, and Darkspine Sonic VS Everyone as he went on a huge crime spree and murder a bunch of people as well as robbing banks, lashed out at Mario when called out for it, and later tried to kill all his friends so he couldn't get arrested. He also never got any comeuppance for committing two serious crimes, making him a Karma Houdini.
 * 41) *Mikey: While likable and has the least flanderiztion out of all the characters in the show, is a little annoying, especially with his voice.
 * 42) *Luigi: While likeable due to calling out the gang every time they do something bad, has been resorted to a butt monkey for the shows abuse jokes and even got his own torture episode.
 * 43) *Bow Bow (Season 14 - Season 16): Bow Bow is a rare case of characters who were not be flanderized from the beginning but rather in later seasons, starting with Season 14's Among Us In Real Life, Bow Bow had signs of growing flanderization, where he accused Luigi all because hit Minnie and told her to die. But his flanderization wouldn't get too serious until Season 16's A Random Ass Crazy Crossover, where he becomes a Grade A asshole and genocidal dog. Thankfully it didn't last long as he retrieved back to his original personality in the series finale, but this flanderization is the most infamous one out of all of the characters.
 * 44) Quantity Over Quality: The show ran for 9 years despite being a widely-hated show, spanning a total of 16 seasons and 425 episodes, which literally shows how the creators refuse to listen to criticism. It also shows how Nickelodeon was blind to the fact that they aired a show that promotes HOMOPHOBIA AND HAS INAPPROPRIATE THEMES FOR A KIDS SHOW.
 * 45) False Advertising: In the season 1 promotional image, it shows Bow Bow, though Bow Bow didn't appear until Season 2. And considering when the show came out, Jojo Siwa wasn’t even popular back then.
 * 46) The show's format is incredibly inconsistent, sometimes the show wants to be story driven, but sometimes it wants to be episodic. It just makes the show a big mess of fighting between story and episodic format that some viewers get confused on what the shows plot is supposed to be about.
 * 47) It took the show almost 4 years to finish Season 1! Now while that might come off as normal, it is actually not. You see, the show took a hiatus between early 2015 and mid 2016, the reason for this is that Sunian wasn't focusing on finishing his show, but focusing on making YouTube videos talking crap on other Nickelodeon shows! Even Nickelodeon themselves called him out for this in Fall of 2016 and almost canceled the show, but Sunian out hesitation quitted his YouTube channel (for the time being) and rushed the final 5 episodes of Season 1. It also explains how Bow Bow and Jojo Siwa was able to get into the show in time for Season 2. This also resulted in the other seasons afters that extremely rushed.
 * 48) The show is homophobic and Anti-LGBTQ. While there are many episodes proving this, the 3 main ones that infamously stand out are "Gay People Committing Suicide Is Funny", "Stop This!", and "JOJO SIWA IS GAY?!".
 * 49) *In "Gay People Committing Suicide Is Funny", the gang sees a news story of a gay man who unfortunately commited suicide for being bullied because well, he was gay. So the gang (except for Luigi and Mikey) decided to find gay people around their town and bully them for being gay until they eventually kill themselves while the gang laughs at them and post images of their dead bodies online. Not only is this mean-spirited and glorifying homophobia, driving people into suicide, and bullying but it is also disrespectful to gay people (or people in general) who have actually commited suicide. The fact that this is a Pride Month special too makes the episode even worse!
 * 50) *In "Stop This!", the gang starts getting hate after Mario post an image of them burning gay flags, so they blame the LGBTQ Community for them getting hate and decide to start a protest for making gay people illegal, which (thankfully) they fail to do. There is also a scene in the episode where there's someone who doesn't understand what's going on decides to protest for Black Lives Matter because they don't know it's and anti-gay protest, as that person does this Sonic punches them in the face and says "Black Lives Do NOT Matter, destroying gay lives do!". Which is not only racist, but also bad timing to do that joke as around the time the episode was made, George Floyd protests were happening.
 * 51) *In "JOJO SIWA IS GAY?!" Jojo comes out as a member of the LGBTQ+ Community like she did in January 2021 this makes everyone (Except Luigi, Mikey and Bow Bow) lash out at Jojo for no reason and torture her in multiple ways, which in a way is just a rehash of "Mickey's Revenge" as that episode has Luigi being tortured in multiple ways. Thankfully at the end of the episode Luigi and Bow Bow save Jojo Siwa but the episode is still bad.
 * 52) Bow Bow and Jojo Siwa (despite being a good character for the first 14 seasons he was in) had no reason to be added into the main cast, and feels out of place for a show about an Mario X Sonic X TMNT crossover.
 * 53) Nintendo, Sega, and LowBar Productions had no involvement in the project! While they agreed to the project, they didn't actually do that much as Nickelodeon insisted they and Sunian Faheal do all the work leading the show, and we all know how that turned out.
 * 54) The show's humor ranges from mediocre, to plan out horrible
 * 55) *Most jokes are based around Luigi abuse and as of "JOJO SIWA IS GAY?!" Jojo Siwa homophobic abuse jokes.
 * 56) *The show has a large amount of toilet humor in their episodes which is just annoying and gross.
 * 57) * The show also does what Modern Family Guy does with Fourth Wall and Cutaway Gag jokes which are bland and unfunny.
 * 58) Ever since Season 5, the show's been relying on hate watching to get popular, meaning that they purposefully made the show worse and worse.
 * 59) The shows creators have been seen to not handle criticism, as they continued the show for 9 whole years despite the negative reception, and even went as far as to make an episode called "Fuck You Stupid Ass Haters KILL YOURSELF COMMIT SUICIDE RIGHT NOW", where they mock and bully the haters of the show, even adding in YouTubers who reviewed the show and hated it without their permission.

WORK IN PROGRESS

Season 1

 * Random Stuff
 * Mikey Falls in Love
 * Mickey's Revenge
 * Luigi's Big Crush
 * Let's Kill Ness
 * Swear Word Extravaganza

Reception
The first half of Mario's Random Stuff Season 1 received generally mixed reviews from critics and audiences alike, but after Swear Word Extravaganza and onward, the series was slammed with negative reviews, and with a rating of 1.9/10 on IMDb, it used to be the lowest rated series on that site, before Velma claimed the spot with a 1.5/10.

However, when the show had reruns on Comedy Central, it gained a “So Bad, It’s Good” cult following and a large fanbase due to how bad it is.

Trivia

 * On January 4th, 2023, Nickelodeon announced the cancellation of the show, due to both Nintendo and Sega cutting ties with Sunian, as well as Sunian being fired (and later convicted) for child molestation as well as all the stuff he put on Nickelodeon. However, Nickelodeon allowed the crew (aside from Sunian who just got fired) to make one final episode, that being "The Most Randomest Epic Finale", which came in 2 parts.
 * Surprisingly, the crews did well with this finale despite being the crew from well, the start of the series. This is due to Sunian telling the crew what to do and making threats to them if they didn't do his bidding, but with Sunian being not associated with the finale since he got fired, the crew had more creative control. All the good stuff about the finale will be reserved for its own page.
 * After the cancellation of this show, everyone was reportedly relieved after hearing the announcement and burned all sorts of merchandise made from the show in celebration.
 * As mentioned earlier, Sunian got arrested for his crimes after being fired, as Nickelodeon called the police on him.
 * After the show ended, it had reruns on Comedy Central, where it’s rated TV-MA-S-V-D-L.
 * The show was speculated to air on The Pain Network, but Kenmare Major Holley the creator of The Pain Network claimed that Nintendo, Sega, and Nickelodeon turned down having the show on The Pain Network.
