Time Fugitives: Part 2 - S2-E8

Continuity mistake: When Cyclops is asking Jean if she can locate Graydon Creed in the mansion, the two of them are standing in the same spot they were in the previous episode. However, in the previous episode, this occurred before they destroyed the fence and began to infiltrate the mansion grounds. In this episode, they have already infiltrated the mansion grounds before Cyclops asks Jean to locate Creed, so they couldn't be standing in the same place as before. (00:15:49 - 00:16:30)

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.

A Rogue's Tale - S2-E9

Continuity mistake: When Rogue is visiting the comatose Carol Danvers in the hospital, Danvers' hair is parted down the middle and her bedsheets go all the way up to her neck. A couple of shots later, she has a lock of hair going down the middle of her forehead, and her sheets only go up to around her armpits. (00:20:17)

Time Fugitives: Part 2 - S2-E8

Continuity mistake: When Bishop dodges Cable's gunfire, behind him are a couple of kiosks that are across the street (they actually look like they are floating on the buildings they are in front of). When Bishop flees, the kiosks are now on the same side of the street as him. (00:03:05 - 00:03:32)

A Rogue's Tale - S2-E9

Plot hole: In the season one episode The Cure, when Pyro and Avalanche are in the bar on Muir Island waiting for Mystique to arrive, Avalanche says "This friend of yours better show up soon or I'm going back to jail, just for something to do!" Rogue then comes in and Pyro suggests to Avalanche that Rogue could be Mystique, to which Avalanche responds "What do you mean it could be? Don't you know what she looks like?", leading Pyro to tell Avalanche that Mystique is a shape-shifter. This dialogue implies that Avalanche has no idea who Mystique is, which is further substantiated when Pyro and Avalanche kidnap Mystique later in the episode while she is in the guise of Dr. Adler, and Avalanche didn't recognize Mystique when she revealed her true form. However in this episode it is shown that Pyro and Avalanche were both previously members of Mystique's Brotherhood of Mutants, so Avalanche should already know who Mystique is without Pyro having to tell him. Rogue was also a member of that group yet neither Pyro nor Avalanche recognize her.

Answer: It appears a number of factors led to its demise. It was originally intended to air for 65 episodes, but its popularity extended that. However, there were continual production quality problems, issues regarding whether the content was suitable enough for children, as well as financial considerations that finally led to it being ended.
