The '''''"That's My Merlee!" Show''''' is a quiz show seen in ''[[Super Paper Mario]]''. It is a type of game show, hosted by [[The InterNed]], which makes the player try to find out which [[Merlee]] is real or not after [[Mimi]] makes herself look identical to Merlee. The game show is very similar to the two [[Super Fun Quirk Quiz]]zes featured in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]''. The InterNed calls it the "'''''66th Annual "That's My Merlee!" Show'''''", which is likely a reference to the original <i>[[Paper Mario]]</i>'s [[64th Trivia Quiz-off]], however the number 67 would have been more appropriate since both 65 and 66 were already taken by the Super Fun Quirk Quizzes.

The InterNed calls it the '''''66th Annual... "That's My Merlee!" show!''''', which is a reference to these quizzes.


In the ''"That's My Merlee!" Show'', the contestant asks both Merlees a total of five questions (erroneously reported as three in the official ''Super Paper Mario'' [[Prima Games]] Guide). For the most part, the answers will point to the real Merlee, however the answers to the "favourite food" and "best feature" questions are not very helpful. After asking their five questions, the player gets to pick the right Merlee, however the answers are not the only way to identify the real Merlee from Mimi. When Mario gets to pick who the real one is, the real one will have a fly flying around her, since she was previously in a toilet. But in the end, it really does not make any difference who the player picks, since Mimi will attack the players either way, thus commencing the boss battle for Chapter 2.
