Night of the Sentinels: Part 1 - S1-E1

Continuity mistake: When the Sentinel is resting against the building while lying in wait for Jubilee, the building itself has a solid exterior with the occasional window. When the shot changes, it is now a glass building. Additionally, when the Sentinel was resting against the building, its entire body was obscured, but when the shot changes, part of the right side of its body was sticking out. (00:14:35)

Night of the Sentinels: Part 1 - S1-E1

Continuity mistake: When Jubilee's bedroom is first shown, the door is on the left side of the wall, she has a poster next to the door of what appears to be a chicken in a boxing outfit with gloves, a bookshelf next to that poster, a nightstand next to her bed and a poster of a girl playing drums on the wall behind the nightstand. After the Sentinel crashes through the window and pulls her bed out of the house, the nightstand and drummer poster have disappeared. When her foster mother comes into the room to see if everything is OK, the door is suddenly in the center of the wall, and the room itself, save for one poster on the wall that the head of the bed was on, is now completely empty.

Night of the Sentinels: Part 1 - S1-E1

Continuity mistake: When Jubilee is first seen eavesdropping on her foster parents, you can see the shelves of their entertainment unit are empty. Moments later when her foster mother is questioning if Jubilee is really a mutant, her husband shows her what Jubilee did to the VCR just by touching it, and you can see the bottom two shelves now have items on them. Additionally, the coffee table goes from having a blue top with a brown border within it, to being a solid brown top altogether. (00:01:39 - 00:02:17)

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.
