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

Continuity mistake: When Rogue takes the unconscious Gambit into the War Room, she sets him down on the center table and stands at the edge of it. When she is showing Storm that she absorbed his powers, she reaches over to grab a coffee mug. There were no coffee mugs on the table when Rogue set him down, and they would be out of reach if they were located on another table. (00:16:57)

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

Continuity mistake: When Storm is talking to and walking towards Jubilee in the War Room, the TV that everyone was watching is suddenly off, and seems to have disappeared altogether, as no screen is visible. When the shot changes, the TV is back on, and the screen appears to be shorter and wider than first shown. When Xavier is leaving the room, the TV is off again, and the screen like before seems to have vanished. (00:09:16 - 00:10:02)

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

Continuity mistake: When the Friends of Humanity are attacking the mutant, the amount of spacing between the letters on the sign that says "Burgers" decreases when the shot changes. There is also a man painting a red "M" on the door below the sign with his left hand while holding a paint bucket in his right hand, and he only paints half the letter before the shot changes. When the shot does change, the "M" is fully formed, and the brush and bucket have swapped hands. (00:08:28)

The Final Decision - S1-E13

Continuity mistake: At the beginning of Senator Kelly's campaign speech, his campaign button is predominantly white with some blue at the top and bottom. When the shot changes, the majority of the button is now blue, with only a small portion in the center being white. (00:19:20)

The Final Decision - S1-E13

Factual error: When a parachuting Xavier is about to land, you can see his legs are bent at the knee to brace for landing. Since Xavier is a paraplegic, he shouldn't be able to do this. (00:19:14)

Trivia: Following Disney's acquisition of Fox, the creators of this show pitched a revival to stream on Disney+. Producer Larry Houston has said he would come out of retirement specifically to work on this. The revival - titled X-Men '97 - was announced on Disney+ Day in November of 2021 for a 2024 premiere date, with much of the surviving original cast returning.

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.
