'''''SMG4''''' is the name given to a series of [[YouTube]] videos done by... [[SMG4 (creator)|SMG4 (or SuperMarioGlitchy4)]]. Created in 2011, it's mostly a standard parody series featuring various ''[[Super Mario (franchise)|Super Mario]]'' characters alongside various others. As with most SM64 machinima, it first started off as dialog-based series that inserted captions over Super Mario 64 game-play. Later, Garry's Mod was introduced in the second season, and the series made a full transition to it in the seventh season. As of the end of November 2021, it has 620 episodes, 2 'movies', and a spin-off show.

* [[Adaptational Jerkass]]: [[Played for Laughs]].
** Mario becomes a [[Chaotic Stupid]] [[Heroic Comedic Sociopath]] who straddles the line between adaptational jerkassery and outright [[Adaptational Villainy|villainy]], varying between [[Good Is Not Nice]] and [[Villain Protagonist]] from one episode to the next (sometimes even ''within'' one episode).
** Peach is often moody and demanding, while Toad tends to be an ill-tempered [[Deadpan Snarker]].
* [[Beautiful Dreamer]]: Axol considers the sleepyhead Melony this.
* [[Chaotic Stupid]]: Much of the ''SMG4'' universe runs on this - Bowser, Wario, Bob... even [[Only Sane Man|Meggy]] has her moments. Perhaps the most prominent example is Mario himself: He has a constant hunger for spaghetti and mushrooms, enjoys riding his kart in circles, abuses Yoshi (while singing the famous ''[[Super Mario Bros. (video game)|Super Mario Bros.]]'' melody) because he is too lazy to walk by himself, [[Naked People Are Funny|undresses randomly]] in public, etc. An adventure with him ''never'' gets boring, at least. However, ''[[Berserk Button|never]]'' [[Beware the Silly Ones|get between]] him and his spaghetti!
* [[Escalating War]]: ''The Mario Mafia'' takes this to [[Crosses The Line Twice|comical extremes]] - a [[What Do You Mean It's Not Heinous?|spilled plate of spaghetti]] results in {{spoiler|the death of an entire family minus the father}}.
