Revealing mistake: When Beast states that it appears safe to enter the alien ship, his right arm and right leg completely pass through Professor X's body and hover-chair respectively. (00:13:45)
Continuity mistake: The warning sign on the containment vessel inside the alien ship disappears in the wide shot. (00:14:40)
Continuity mistake: When Gambit and Jubilee are chasing after Wolverine, Gambit's gloves, pants and headgear alternate between being blue, black or a combination thereof depending on the shot. (00:07:55)
Continuity mistake: When Gambit scoffs at Jubilee's notion that the X-Men are a family, his irises which are normally red are now white. (00:07:25)
Continuity mistake: When Gambit is warning Wolverine that Leech's message could be a trap, the backboard of the basketball hoop is visible over his left shoulder. When the shot changes to Jubilee offering to help Wolverine, the backboard is visibly larger. (00:06:55)
Continuity mistake: Gambit's black cowl is suddenly blue when Jean Grey is explaining that the alien spacecraft is a prison ship. (00:15:25)
Continuity mistake: The scratch marks Lady Deathstrike makes in the alien ship don't appear until she mentions them. (00:04:00 - 00:05:15)
Continuity mistake: When Wolverine says "Come on kid" to the unconscious Jubilee, the fingers of his left hand are flesh colored when they should be colored blue from wearing gloves. (00:04:50)
Savage Land, Strange Heart (1) - S3-E8
Character mistake: When Zaladane is placing the Garrok necklace around Karl Lykos' neck, she incorrectly refers to Garokk as "Garokkt." She's Garokk's high priestess, so she should definitely know his name. (00:04:12)
Savage Land, Strange Heart (2) - S3-E9
Other mistake: When Rogue tells Beast that the word "Zaladane" kept popping in and out of her head when she and Sauron made physical contact, a border roughly in the shape of the letter "D" appears around her mouth. (00:08:08)
The Phoenix Saga (4): The Starjammers - S3-E6
Other mistake: When D'Ken is saying "Destroy them all," he is speaking with a German accent. (00:17:09)
The Phoenix Saga (3): Cry of the Banshee - S3-E5
Other mistake: When Xavier is telling Moira about how he and Lilandra were attacked, Moira dismisses his claim, reasoning that he came to her for help because he could no longer trust his own mind, and that no-one else had been in his room. She witnessed him flying out of a window, and he's a paraplegic. Unless she thinks he somehow catapulted himself out the window, she shouldn't have been so dismissive of his claim. Not to mention the damage to the room, including the bed being thrown against the TV. (00:05:21)
The Phoenix Saga (1): Sacrifice - S3-E3
Other mistake: When Dr. Corbeau opens the door to the locker room, Cyclops, Jean Grey and Wolverine are in his direct line of sight. Despite this, it isn't until he takes several steps into the room that he realises they aren't his shuttle crew. (00:08:35)
The Phoenix Saga (2): The Dark Shroud - S3-E4
Other mistake: After the shuttle crashes into the Upper New York Bay, the X-Men escape the wreckage and swim up to the surface, with Wolverine being the first one to appear. Given that Wolverine's skeleton is coated with a heavy metal, not only should he not be the first one to surface, he should actually sink instead. (00:04:06)
The Phoenix Saga (1): Sacrifice - S3-E3
Revealing mistake: After the X-Men rescue Dr. Corbeau and retreat back to the shuttle, they come upon a room with crew members passed out on the floor. Keep an eye on Wolverine in the background on the right side of the screen and you will see him literally walk through a door panel. (00:17:28)
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.
