Storm Front: Part 1 - S5-E7

Revealing mistake: In the opening shot of the Washington Monument, the monument is very noticeably shaking left and right as the camera pans up (likely indicating that the monument and the background are a composite image). (00:01:00)

Bloodlines - S5-E6

Factual error: When Rogue tricks the Friends of Humanity into firing on their own helicopters, two men are shown to be immediately parachuting from the helicopter at an altitude of at most, 100 feet. This wouldn't really be possible because jumping from such a low altitude would require the person to immediately deploy the parachute, which in this case would cause the parachute to be torn to shreds by the helicopter's rotor. If a person jumped from that altitude and deployed the parachute after free falling enough to clear the rotor, they would have fallen too far for the parachute to have been effective in allowing them to land safely, if the parachute even opened before they hit the ground.

No Mutant Is an Island - S5-E4

Continuity mistake: When Sarah resuscitates Cyclops, they are by the edge of the swimming pool. When the shot changes to Cyclops blasting through the screen door, the pool is nowhere to be seen, nor is the puddle of water that was under Cyclops in the previous shot. (00:16:10)

More trivia for X-Men

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.
