Captive Hearts - S1-E5

Continuity mistake: When Wolverine is slashing at Callisto's staff, it is light purple. When he completely shreds a center portion of it, that portion is blue, and when the shot changes, the rest of the staff is red. Additionally, the center section of the staff has reduced in length after Wolverine shreds it. (00:14:35 - 00:15:03)

Captive Hearts - S1-E5

Continuity mistake: When Storm and Callisto are about to engage in combat, they are using staves that look like lightsabers, with the hilts at the bottom. When they start striking at each other, both staves now resemble a double-edged lightsaber, with the hilt in the middle. (00:18:25)

Captive Hearts - S1-E5

Continuity mistake: When Xavier is talking to Jean and Cyclops at the end, the three of them, along with Storm, are all to the left of the bed Gambit is lying on, with Storm being behind Xavier, over his right shoulder, and a piece of machinery behind her. When the shot changes, it is a closeup of Xavier, and neither Storm, nor the machinery are visible over Xavier's shoulder. When Jean and Cyclops leave the room, Xavier is now at the foot of Gambit's bed, several feet away from Storm. (00:20:08 - 00:20:32)

Enter Magneto - S1-E3

Continuity mistake: When Xavier is using Cerebro to look for Magneto, his blue and black tie turns yellow when Jubilee says "Professor?" When Storm says "Charles, are you all right?", it is back to being blue and black, and the blue stripes turn yellow before our eyes. (00:11:41)

Slave Island - S1-E7

Plot hole: After Storm's attempt to escape the Genoshan prison is thwarted, she ends up in the ocean right at the shoreline of the beach, where she is captured by a Sentinel. Aside from the fact that it makes no sense for a Sentinel to be hiding in the ocean in the event that a mutant tries to escape the prison, there is absolutely no way that a two-story tall robot could hide in the ocean right by the beach, as the water would be way too shallow. You can even see that the water level only goes up to the Sentinel's ankle area when it is standing upright in the ocean. (00:03:15)

Suggested correction: Perception. (1) The Sentinel isn't as close as it appears. If it were close, then she would have been caught in its waves as it emerges. Also, she would be looking only at its chest circle. It's several yards away. (2) She washes ashore. She fell from the sky. She couldn't have fallen from that great height into shallow water without hitting bottom. (3) It's also a two-story tall robot. Its weight would sink it into the sand. So it could have very well been down that deep.

Sentinel never sank into sand in other episodes.

Well, it's shown here.

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.
