No Mutant Is an Island - S5-E4

Continuity mistake: The layout of the living room in Killgrave's house varies depending on the shot. Sometimes the half-circle couch is next to a staircase and sometimes it is not. The piano is also in a different spot on the floor each time it is shown. There are also chairs that appear and disappear throughout the scene. (00:14:55)

No Mutant Is an Island - S5-E4

Continuity mistake: When Killgrave is walking up the porch steps to reclaim Rusty, Cyclops and Sarah are standing near the edge of the porch and Killgrave nearly makes it to the top before the shot changes. When the shot changes to Sarah telling him about Rusty's trouble adjusting, Killgrave is shown to be walking a considerable distance to get to Sarah despite the fact that the he was two or three steps away from her in the previous shot. Killgrave is also shown to be walking on level ground, which means either the porch has become a lot longer off-screen or that the animators forgot he was ascending the steps. (00:08:55)

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.
