"That's My Merlee!" show
- “IIIIIIIT'S the 66th Annual... "That's My Merlee" show! How're you folks doing?”
- —The InterNed, Super Paper Mario
The "That's My Merlee!" show is a quiz show seen in Super Paper Mario. It is a game show, hosted by The InterNed, which makes the player try to find out which Merlee is real after Mimi makes herself look identical to Merlee. The game show is very similar to the 64th Trivia Quiz-Off from Paper Mario, as well as the 65th Trivia Quiz-Off and 66th Trivia Quiz-Off from Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. 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. For the most part, the answers will point to the real Merlee. After asking them 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. In the end, it does not make any difference whom the player picks, since Mimi will attack the player either way.
