Continuity mistake: When Rogue is visiting the comatose Carol Danvers in the hospital, Danvers' hair is parted down the middle and her bedsheets go all the way up to her neck.

A Rogue's Tale - S2-E9

Continuity mistake: When Rogue walks by Carol Danvers' hospital room, you can see a nurse in the open space between the open door and the door frame. When the shot changes, the nurse is now standing in front of the open space, and would have been at least partially obscured by the door in the previous shot if she was standing in the same place.

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.

Phaneron

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.
