X-Men mistake picture

The Cure - S1-E9

Continuity mistake: When Cable has broken into Warren's lab from the balcony, the doorknobs on the double-door are intact. As the scene progresses, one or both doorknobs will disappear and reappear, and the broken glass on the one door will be intact. Additionally, when the opened door is first shown, there are a couple of broken pieces of glass on the floor next to it. When the shot changes, the pieces of glass are gone. (00:02:35 - 00:04:30)

The Cure - S1-E9

Continuity mistake: When Cable grabs Warren through a shelf on his bookcase, he knocks several books onto the floor. When Warren pushes the bookcase over, there is an overhead shot of the floor surrounding the bookcase for several feet in each direction and there are no books visible on the floor. (00:02:50)

The Cure - S1-E9

Continuity mistake: When Warren shoots his blaster through the bookcase, the blast goes through some books/file folders that say "DNA Test 6" and "DNA Test 7" while "DNA Test 4" and "DNA Test 5" are warped out of shape. When he pushes the bookcase over, the two warped books/file folders are back to normal. (00:02:50)

The Cure - S1-E9

Continuity mistake: When Cable blasts Warren off the balcony, Warren falls and drifts into the snow a couple feet, leaving an impression of his shape in the process. When he recovers, he emerges from completely under the snow as if he were buried, but the impression is still there in the snow moments later when he retreats, so it could not have refilled itself with fresh powder and buried him. (00:03:10 - 00:04:30)

The Cure - S1-E9

Revealing mistake: When Warren's girlfriend is looking for him in his lab, she is startled by Cable who is hiding behind the door and slams it shut once she enters the room. When she is startled and looks back at Cable, the animation is not very fluid. As she is turning around to look at Cable, her "onion skin" form remains, making it look like there are two of her. (00:03:35)

The Cure - S1-E9

Continuity mistake: When Xavier and Moira are walking towards the door to Adler's lab, the control panel for the intercom is horizontal. A couple of shots later, it is vertical. (00:04:51)

The Cure - S1-E9

Factual error: When Rogue is flying the dome up to the top of the mansion, she is flying at a diagonal angle and using a rope to tow the dome behind her. On its way up from the ground, the dome is also at a diagonal angle, when its mass along with the force of gravity and the slow speed at which Rogue is moving dictate that the dome should swing like a pendulum. (00:06:10)

The Cure - S1-E9

Revealing mistake: When Rogue puts the dome in place, if you look closely you will see that the dome is resting on thin air (note that you can see the sky through the platform she sets it on, and when she sets it down, the underside of the dome is visible). (00:06:15)

The Cure - S1-E9

Continuity mistake: When Jean telekinetically drives the nails through the wood panel, she drives them through the left and bottom edges. When the shot changes to her driving nails into the top and right edges, the nails at the bottom edge have disappeared. (00:06:34)

The Cure - S1-E9

Plot hole: After Wolverine tells Gambit that he only knows how to pick pockets and steal candy from babies, Gambit attempts to retaliate by kinetically charging one of the bricks Wolverine is working with in order for it to blow up in his face. Anything Gambit kinetically charges makes a high-pitched humming sound, and Wolverine possesses a superhuman sense of hearing, so he should not have been caught unaware by it. (00:06:55)

The Cure - S1-E9

Continuity mistake: When Gambit and Wolverine are about to fight each other, Wolverine's claws are extended, and Gambit has a kinetically charged playing card raised in his right hand. When Rogue intervenes, Wolverine's claws are suddenly retracted, his hands are incorrectly colored white, and Gambit's right arm is down at his side, not holding any card. A couple of shots later, Wolverine's claws are once again extended. (00:07:15)

The Cure - S1-E9

Continuity mistake: When Rogue is walking towards her car, it is shown to be parked on the mansion's driveway. A couple of shots later, it is suddenly parked on the grass. (00:08:05)

Continuity mistake: The rear view mirror in Rogue's car disappears and reappears, as well as alternates between being gray and red, throughout the lone brief scene the car is in. (00:08:25 - 00:09:00)

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.
