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)

The Juggernaut Returns - S3-E17

Other mistake: During the "Previously on X-Men..." segment before the show's intro, it shows the Juggernaut landing in the ocean and walking across the ocean floor after Gladiator had hurled him away. However, Juggernaut's fate was never actually shown after Gladiator threw him. He was only seen fading off into the distance. (00:00:50)

Orphan's End - S3-E16

Other mistake: When Corsair is running towards the Starjammers and Storm at the top of the Mayan structure, Lilandra can be seen among the group despite the fact that she was not in the episode before or after this moment. This was most likely supposed to instead be Jandra, the Shi'ar child that the Starjammers were trying to protect. (00:18:50)

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.

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.
