The Dark Phoenix (4): The Fate of the Phoenix - S3-E14
Continuity mistake: Professor X's usual hoverchair was destroyed by the Dark Phoenix in the previous episode, so the Shi'ar gave him a new one to use on their starship. However, when Professor X is lamenting over the X-Men's imminent defeat against the Shi'ar Imperial Guard, he is back in his original hoverchair. Towards the end of the episode, he is back in the Shi'ar hoverchair. (00:04:10 - 00:13:15)

Answer: It appears a number of factors led to its demise. It was originally intended to air for 65 episodes, but its popularity extended that. However, there were continual production quality problems, issues regarding whether the content was suitable enough for children, as well as financial considerations that finally led to it being ended.
