(2 votes)

Cold Vengeance - S1-E6

Continuity mistake: When Cyclops and Jean Grey enter Wolverine's room at the end of the previous episode and find it a mess and him gone, Cyclops is wearing brown pants, a yellow collared shirt and a charcoal tie, and Jean is wearing a pink dress. This episode picks up where that episode ended, and suddenly Cyclops is wearing blue jeans and a purple turtleneck, and Jean is wearing off-white pants and a turquoise blouse. (00:02:06)

Cold Vengeance - S1-E6

Continuity mistake: When Jubilee, Gambit, and Storm are first shown in their bungalow, there is a coffee table with a couple cups near the edge on the viewer's right, and some magazines on the top corner of the same side. A couple of shots later, the cups and magazines have all moved closer to the center of the table. When Gambit sits up, the magazines have disappeared entirely. (00:19:14)

Slave Island - S1-E7

Plot hole: After Storm's attempt to escape the Genoshan prison is thwarted, she ends up in the ocean right at the shoreline of the beach, where she is captured by a Sentinel. Aside from the fact that it makes no sense for a Sentinel to be hiding in the ocean in the event that a mutant tries to escape the prison, there is absolutely no way that a two-story tall robot could hide in the ocean right by the beach, as the water would be way too shallow. You can even see that the water level only goes up to the Sentinel's ankle area when it is standing upright in the ocean. (00:03:15)

Suggested correction: Perception. (1) The Sentinel isn't as close as it appears. If it were close, then she would have been caught in its waves as it emerges. Also, she would be looking only at its chest circle. It's several yards away. (2) She washes ashore. She fell from the sky. She couldn't have fallen from that great height into shallow water without hitting bottom. (3) It's also a two-story tall robot. Its weight would sink it into the sand. So it could have very well been down that deep.

Sentinel never sank into sand in other episodes.

Well, it's shown here.

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.

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.
