Reunion: Part 2 - S2-E13

Continuity mistake: When Gambit is watching Rogue being taken away, you can see the bars of their holding cell are only about a foot taller than Gambit. Later in the scene when Wolverine is attempting to free the X-Men from the cell, the bars now go all the way up to the ceiling. (00:14:13 - 00:14:48)

Reunion: Part 1 - S2-E12

Continuity mistake: When Kazar tackles Barbarus, Barbarus ends up lying on the ground between Kazar and Xavier and Magneto. When Xavier and Magneto begin running with Kazar, nothing about their stride indicates that they step over Barbarus, suggesting he is suddenly no longer in that spot. (00:08:50)

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.

Phaneron

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.
