The Cure - S1-E9

Continuity mistake: When Gambit and Wolverine are about to fight each other, Wolverine's claws are extended, and Gambit has a kinetically charged playing card raised in his right hand. When Rogue intervenes, Wolverine's claws are suddenly retracted, his hands are incorrectly colored white, and Gambit's right arm is down at his side, not holding any card. A couple of shots later, Wolverine's claws are once again extended. (00:07:15)

The Cure - S1-E9

Continuity mistake: When Cable has broken into Warren's lab from the balcony, the doorknobs on the double-door are intact. As the scene progresses, one or both doorknobs will disappear and reappear, and the broken glass on the one door will be intact. Additionally, when the opened door is first shown, there are a couple of broken pieces of glass on the floor next to it. When the shot changes, the pieces of glass are gone. (00:02:35 - 00:04:30)

Other mistake: When Rogue presses the button on the intercom to talk to Dr. Adler, you can see that she does not actually touch the button, but rather her finger is above it. (00:11:30)

The Cure - S1-E9

Factual error: The commercial airplane that Rogue is piggy-backing to Muir Island has no overhead storage bins. Just a shelf running the length of the cabin with luggage stacked on top, which is not something that the FAA or any other national aviation authority would permit. (00:09:20)

The Cure - S1-E9

Continuity mistake: When Rogue is telling Mystique disguised as Dr. Adler that she heard he can reverse mutations, Adler's arms are at his sides. When the shot changes, his arms are behind his back. (00:11:45)

The Unstoppable Juggernaut - S1-E8

Continuity mistake: When the team arrives at the destroyed mansion at the end of the previous episode, Cyclops' seat is blue, Rogue says "It can't be" while raising her right hand up to her mouth in disbelief, and Wolverine is growling and extending his claws. When the team is shown arriving at the destroyed mansion at the beginning of this episode, Cyclops' seat is now light-red, Rogue says "It can't be" while her arms remain at her sides, and a silent Wolverine is casually putting on his mask and walking towards the exit ramp of the Blackbird.

Slave Island - S1-E7

Continuity mistake: When the Genosha guard tries pulling a gun on Cable, you can see his headgear only extends down to his jawline and chin. When Cable picks him up and throws him, his headgear is now also covering his entire neck. (00:19:00)

Slave Island - S1-E7

Continuity mistake: When Gambit tries to grab the gun, Cable stops him by placing his left foot on top of it. When the shot changes, it is now Cable's right foot that is on the gun. Additionally, yellow lane dividers in the middle of the road disappear when Gambit first reaches for the gun, and then reappear a couple of shots later. (00:12:15)

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.

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.
