'Til Death Do Us Part: Part 1 - S2-E1

Trivia: During Cyclops and Jean Grey's wedding ceremony, a man can be seen standing next to Storm, and after the nuptials can be seen standing in the background after Rogue rejects Gambit's attempt to kiss her. According to the book "X-Men: The Art and Making of the Animated Series," this character is intended to be Doctor Strange. The book also reveals that a character model was drawn for J. Jonah Jameson to be at wedding as well. However, he didn't make it into the episode. (00:02:55 - 00:04:09)

A Deal with the Devil - S5-E3

Trivia: According to the book "Previously on X-Men: The Making of an Animated Series," this episode was originally conceived as an episode called "Bring Me Charles Xavier" (a reference to the film Bring Me the Head of Alfredo Garcia), and would have been the 47th episode of the series overall. In addition to the return of Omega Red, it also would have seen the returns of Colossus and his little sister Ilyana, as well as Darkstar. The episode was written by showrunner Eric Lewald, and after being told numerous times by his colleagues that the script just didn't work, he reworked it into what became this episode. An image for the cast list of the unproduced episode is visible in the book "X-Men: The Art and Making of the Animated Series."

X-Ternally Yours - S2-E6

Trivia: According to the book "X-Men: The Art and Making of the Animated Series," the character of the External didn't have a counterpart established in the comics for the show's creators to base her on by the time this episode went into production, so director Larry Houston designed her himself, choosing to portray her as a Creole woman. The character's comic counterpart ended up debuting around the same time this episode aired, in Gambit #1, where she is a blonde Caucasian woman named Candra.

The Unstoppable Juggernaut - S1-E8

Continuity mistake: When the X-Men begin attacking Juggernaut one by one after he emerges from the rubble, there is some rubble directly in front of him. When Colossus hits him from behind, Juggernaut goes stumbling forward and the rubble that was in front of him has disappeared. (00:17:14)

The Unstoppable Juggernaut - S1-E8

Continuity mistake: When Juggernaut is telling Jubilee that she's getting too big for her britches, she is standing on the right side of the roof. A couple of shots later when Juggernaut is tearing the building out of its foundation, she is now on the opposite side of the roof. (00:14:57)

Slave Island - S1-E7

Stupidity: At the beginning of the episode, Pyro is among the Genoshan prisoners, and he is wearing his flamethrower device. While his inhibitor collar will suppress his mutant power of pyrokinesis, he can still use the flamethrower itself as a weapon. This would be akin to a prison allowing an inmate to walk around with a loaded gun. (00:02:12)

Cold Vengeance - S1-E6

Other mistake: When Gambit, Storm, and Jubilee get into the back of the taxi, you can see the window seat behind the driver is unoccupied, which would suggest the three of them are occupying only two of the backseats. (00:12:51)
