Courage - S4-E3

Continuity mistake: When Morph and Wolverine are fleeing the facility, Morph's hands are colored yellow. It's as if the animators thought he was supposed to be wearing gloves but his fingernails are still visible. (00:06:45)

Nightcrawler - S3-E18

Continuity mistake: When Rogue is attempting to rescue Gambit from the avalanche, Gambit's right hand goes from being gloveless to gloved. There is even a point when she is pulling him out of the snow that a glove instantaneously materializes on his hand and then disappears just as quickly. (00:05:20)

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.
