Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games (TV Show)

"Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games" is an animated TV show based on the spin-off game series of the same name by Nintendo and SEGA. Each episode revolves around characters from "Super Mario" and "Sonic the Hedgehog" competing for the gold in Olympic events around the world. Meanwhile, Bowser and Bowser Jr. form an alliance with Dr. Eggman to cheat their way into victory, with Wario, Waluigi, and sometimes Shadow and Rouge serving as their vile henchmen. On occasion, some episodes feature a song performed by the characters. As in the games, Toad and Cream commentate the events of the games. They can also appear in commercial bumpers, like saying "We'll be right back" before commercial breaks, and "Back to our program" after commercial breaks (even on the home media and Digital releases).

== ART STYLE ==
Quite possibly anime, in the exact same art style and 2D animation as "Sonic X".
== EPISODE CONCEPTS ==
Concept #1 - An episode based on the famous internet meme, "Luigi wins by doing absolutely nothing", where Luigi gets lazy and constantly wins in each Olympic event, even in team events where Luigi doesn't do anything, knowing his team will win. Outraged by this, either Wario or Waluigi (depending how this can go) give Bowser the idea to manipulate Luigi into joining their team. Mario would even tell Luigi to stop being lazy and start making team efforts.
Concept #2 - An episode where Sonic and Princess Daisy argue over who's better at sports between boys and girls, when the reality is, they're equally matched. This episode would even prove that Sonic and Daisy can bicker, due to them both having a competitive personality.
== SONG IDEAS ==
* In some episodes, the villains would sing to express their evil plans, or for other reasons.
* One episode could have Amy Rose sing with Princess Peach about how she can get Sonic to notice her, like how Peach makes it look easy for Mario whenever she gets captured. Peach would explain however that there's more to guys than just getting captured.
* At the beginning of my second idea for an episode (See above), before arguing with Daisy, Sonic could sing a cover of "City Escape" from "Sonic Adventure 2" while doing his morning speed jog around the whole city next to the arena (given Sonic's super speed)
* In the Sonic and Daisy episode, they could sing something like the song “Badder” from Disenchanted, but deciding who is better in sports through a duet. (It could be called “Better” or something like that).

== NEWLY ADDED CHARACTERS ==
Because the game series is ever-growing, new characters that have been added to recent titles, or has not once appeared in any of the games will appear as supporting or minor characters.
* Toadsworth (Voiced by John O'Hurley) = Peach's loyal and elderly mushroom castle steward. For the Olympics, he's the coach of certain events.
*Pauline (Voiced by Kate Higgins) = Mario's former girlfriend. One episode would make it clear that Cranky and Pauline are on good terms now and there are no more hard feelings after kidnapping her years ago. This, of course, was before Mario and Luigi ended up in the Mushroom Kingdom.
*Cranky Kong (Voiced by Lewis Black) = A grouchy and reluctant but well-meaning elderly advisor to Donkey Kong and Diddy. He coaches some of the Olympic events, and will occasionally give helpful advise to the heroes. If done right, Lewis' voice work as Cranky could be faithful to how he normally acts in the "Donkey Kong" video games. This would include 4th-wall comments, and some hysterical ranting.
*King K. Rool (Voiced by Benedict Campbell) = Donkey Kong and Diddy's arch-nemesis. (He could guest star in one episode as a means of helping Bowser and Dr. Eggman. Depending on how well the results are in terms of viewer reception, he could become a reoccurring character.)
*Big the Cat (Voiced by Kyle Hebert) = Appears in crowd sequences. Occasionally, in a few episodes, he gives some of the characters helpful advice outside the arena.
*Tikal the Echidna = Appears in crowd sequences as a silent character. She can also make silent cameo appearances outside the arena.
