Cold Comfort - S3-E15

Plot hole: This episode showed that Beast was an original member of the X-Men and also depicted the original X-Men battling Magneto. However, when Magneto attempted to break Beast out of jail in the season 1 episode "Enter Magneto", Beast said to him "I don't believe we've met. Magneto I presume."

Cold Comfort - S3-E15

Plot hole: When Jubilee and Iceman are tied up, Jubilee has metal "mittens" over her hands that prevent her from using her powers to escape, but Iceman notes that they failed to learn about his powers and uses his ice powers to break free from his ropes. Iceman was in his ice form when X-Factor attacked him and Jubilee, and they also know that he previously attacked their compound, so they should have known that he had those abilities. (00:13:40)

Cold Comfort - S3-E15

Continuity mistake: When Iceman steps onto the containment field platform, Professor X moves over right next to him, hovering over the platform himself. When Professor X activates the containment field to trap Iceman in place, Professor X is suddenly away from the platform. (00:07:45)

Cold Comfort - S3-E15

Character mistake: When Beast discovers that Iceman has escaped from the containment device, he takes several steps in the room before he even realizes that Iceman is gone. The device was not obscured by anything, so Beast should have realized as soon as he entered the room that Iceman was gone. (00:11:30)

Cold Comfort - S3-E15

Other mistake: When Cyclops blasts Iceman with his optic beam, the image of Wolverine encased in ice remains on-screen, when it looks as if the shot was supposed to completely change to Iceman getting knocked back by the blast. (00:05:35)

Cold Comfort - S3-E15

Character mistake: When the two security guards are arguing over whether heat or humidity is worse, one guard says "It's midnight, and it's still 97°." However, moments before that the same security guard checked the temperature on his computer and it indicated it was 85°.

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.
