X-Men mistake picture

Time Fugitives: Part 1 - S2-E7

Continuity mistake: Throughout the episode, Bishop's goatee alternates between fully covering his chin and having a small spot of exposed skin beneath the soul patch. Sometimes there is even the outline drawn of the exposed skin beneath the soul patch, but it is colored the same as the goatee. (00:05:10 - 00:20:05)

Time Fugitives: Part 1 - S2-E7

Continuity mistake: When Bishop is shown returning to the year 2055, he looks out the window to a see a pristine looking city, and claims his intervention in the past to be a success. This is a contradiction to Bishop's return when it was originally shown at the end of the season 1 episode Days of Future Past: Part 2, in which he appeared in a run-down city and remarks that everything looks the same as it did when he left. (00:05:15)

Time Fugitives: Part 1 - S2-E7

Continuity mistake: When the quarantine sign is being stapled to the door, it is black and yellow striped, with an orange stripe running the opposite direction, and "Quarantine" written on the orange part. When the mob is trying to get into the building, the sign is now gray with a single yellowish-gray stripe running diagonally across it, and no writing. (00:10:14 - 00:10:44)

Time Fugitives: Part 1 - S2-E7

Continuity mistake: When Bishop is trying to disperse the mob, the circular patches on his shoulders are red with yellow borders, and a thin circle design is within the red circle itself. Moments later when he throws Wolverine off himself, the red circles are now blank, and their borders are black instead of yellow. (00:11:00 - 00:11:50)

X-Men mistake picture

Time Fugitives: Part 1 - S2-E7

Continuity mistake: After Storm informs Cyclops that a mob is attacking Bishop, a shot of the rest of the team in the Blackbird shows that Gambit's neck is flesh colored when it is supposed to be black from wearing his headgear (this is corrected when the scene is reprised in the next episode).

Time Fugitives: Part 1 - S2-E7

Continuity mistake: When Bishop is saying he was trying to save lives, the strap running through Gambit's jacket sleeve is colored blue, when it should be the same brown color as the rest of the jacket. His left hand is also bare, despite the fact that he had been showing his gloves throughout the scene. (00:12:37)

Trivia: Following Disney's acquisition of Fox, the creators of this show pitched a revival to stream on Disney+. Producer Larry Houston has said he would come out of retirement specifically to work on this. The revival - titled X-Men '97 - was announced on Disney+ Day in November of 2021 for a 2024 premiere date, with much of the surviving original cast returning.

Show generally

Question: Does anyone know why Gambit was featured less and less in episodes as the show went on? He was one of the most popular characters in not just X-Men, but all of Marvel Comics around the time this series first aired, so unless it had something to do with his voice actor's contract, it seems odd they wouldn't have utilized him more.

Answer: Chris Potter, the original Gambit voice actor, did indeed quit the role in the 4th season. His last episode was The Phalanx Covenant Part 1 so it seems reasonable that Fox would limit the use of the character even though it was recast. It doesn't appear that Potter left the role due to animosity, he stated in an interview that he wished to play Gambit in the first live action X-Men film.
