Savage Land, Strange Heart (1) - S3-E8

Plot hole: When Kazar discovers that Sauron is really his friend Karl Lykos, Lykos reveals that he was turned into Sauron by Mr. Sinister. However, in the season 2 episode Mojovision when Sauron was attacking Shana, Magneto already knew who Sauron was. Magneto was the master of the Savage Land mutates years before Mr. Sinister was and hadn't been to the Savage Land for many years before then, so if Magneto already knew who Sauron was, then it couldn't have been Mr. Sinister who created him.

Continuity mistake: When Lykos transforming into Kazar, his wings tear out of his jacket sleeves, and are incorrectly colored the same brown as the jacket. A couple of shots later, his wings have disappeared and don't form again until his entire jacket is torn off. (00:07:13)

Revealing mistake: When Zaladane is helping Sauron escape, she uses her staff to reveal a hidden stairway in the floor. As Sauron descends the steps, the opening fades back into resembling the floor to suggest it is being hidden again, but Sauron fades away as well. It should be that Sauron walks out of view, and then the opening fades back into the floor. (00:02:56)

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.
