It seems like a few of the other teams in that game that never got finished were supposed to tie into the mcu but didn't catch on, like there were alot of agents of shield characters and also the eternals and the inhumans. I wouldn't be suprised if the mandate to add her came in to familiarize general audiences with her before her inclusion into the mcu, but it ended up getting delayed

Fun Fact: *"Wolverine and the X-Men"* was also the title for a proposed film between 1989 & 1990 for both Carolco & Lightstorm Entertainment that was to be directed by Kathryn Bigelow (one of James Cameron's then-wives), written by Gary Goldman and Cameron himself as the producer. Bob Hoskins was slated to be Wolverine (no joke) and Angela Bassett was to be Storm. But the *"X-Men"* film went into development hell after Stan Lee picqued Cameron's interests about doing a film based on *"Spider-Man".* Sadly, his vision of the web-slinging hero would also never come to fruition, but a concept from Cameron's treatment was kept in the Raimi film trilogy: the organic web-shooters.

@@milkiassamuel780 His episodes in the 90's show were some of my favorites. This is my favorite X-Men cartoon. I do like the 90's version, and it's pretty definitive, but it had some really low lows.

I am head over heels for the three nightcrawler episodes. I come back to them at least once a year because I always have a blast with Kurt's fun side adventure about fighting pirates and getting hunted by Mojo, and his discovery of Genosha's dark side. It kills me every time, when he teleports across the entire ocean to warn his friends, only to get kicked in the face and dragged back to prison. Teleportation is a daunting skill to use to its potential without completely disarming the stakes, but it was awesome to see Kurt's powers used with real intelligence and creativity. Not every episode is stellar, and the main plot line was even boring at times but I think that's because there were so many other plot threads and side adventures that had so much to offer. Frankly, the way that so many of these plots were executed shouldn't have worked, but often did. Wolverine shouldn't be the leader, pheonix saga shouldn't suddenly happen in the finale on top of everything else, hulk shouldn't randomly have an episode cameo, etc. but the team worked hard to make these elements hold up and I think they do. The problem with the show is that it wanted to do EVERYTHING. It was torn on all the things it could be--a dark gritty show or a colorful one, a what if kinda scenario or a defininitive x men property, a spin off of the movies or a remix of the x men from the comics. It didn't want to let go of any elements, so it kinda drowned itself in all of them. I liked the writing, and it's obvious the show had a lot of creativity, even if it was clumsy about how to channel it. It's not perfect by a long shot, and I'm particularly frustrated with how they handled Scott but I loved the show's passion and I generally found the clumsiness endearing. For me, the show was worth it just for the handful of stellar moments we got: the robot Rover, gambit stealing magneto's helmet, Emma Frost's choice to be an X Man above anything else in the end, Warren's sad descent into archangel, and nightcrawler's trilogy.

It had the right amount of action, drama, and dark edge that I would have wanted to see more of in the other shows. This show should have definitely gotten another season and who knows how much better it could have gotten 😎.

I've heard Steve Blum voice Starscream with a scratchier voice. He sounded perfect there, so I'm think if he did that with Wolverine, he would've just made him sound super evil.

You should try "Wolverine Vs Hulk" if you haven't already, Steve Blum reprises the role. It's a more adult cartoon movie with lots of violence and blood. It also has the best Deadpool, Nolan North.

Any time I read an issue of a comic, I hear his voice in my head.

I think I like Evolution and this compared to the original 90s Animated Series mostly for the more modern voice acting. The 90s voice acting, while great for the time, is not something I can go back to easily since Batman: The Animated Series, which has amazing voice acting that has aged beautifully, came out in the same era.

After watching this video, I found it a bit surprising that it didn't include mention of the episode where the team encountered a mutant whose explosion power could only be contained by the mutant holding facilities Senator Kelly set up.

That brief glimpse of season 2 set Age of Apocalypse looked amazing and it was quite disappointing when it didn't happen. This show and GI JOE: Renegades are the two shows that should have gotten a second season.

I actually really liked this series when it came out. Sure, I didn't like it as much as the Fox Kids X-Men, but the idea of Professor Xavier being gone, and Wolverine having to lead the X-Men, was a really interesting take on the classic characters. Also, you can't go wrong with Steve Blum as a voice actor. That guy is a legend! Just like Rob Paulsen, and Tim Curry.

What I enjoyed about this show is that it really aped the future of the comics. Wolverine increasingly became more of a leader and less of a brainless thug, while Cyclops became more of a miserable piece of crap. It was a little paint by numbers in terms of things it needed to do, but I feel like it changed up enough to be its own thing.

Much like Spectacular Spider-Man, this show ended way too soon. The way they teased Apocalypse being the next big bad was so exciting and when I found out the second season wasn't happening, my disappointment was immeasurable and my day was ruined.

I like what this show was trying to do, and how different it was from X-men Evolution. But I just couldn't get over how Cyclops and Wolverine basically switched personalities.... even with Scott's one cool episode, it just was SO trying to make Wolverine something other than he is

When I think of the X-Men, this is what comes to mind first. This was my favourite show as a kid, and it's what made me track down the films once First Class came out. It blends the stuff from the comics like the insane costumes with the attitudes of the films very well. Not bad for a series where they weren't allowed to kill anyone! And honestly, its the connection to the films that helps it for me. We didn't have the other shows, but we did have the films. This felt like it could potentially be set a few years after X-Men II in a world where X-Men III didn't happen. To a lot of people, this is who the characters are. You talk about how the characters don't feel right, but this is where many kids in the UK discovered the X-Men, so these ARE what these characters are like, Miserable Prick Cyclops being a notable one.

I will say, I really enjoyed this show's take on Emma Frost.

Hey Doug! Great to see another Disneycember video from you! :) If you don't mind me asking, what are you going to talk about for Christmas? I have a good suggestion you could talk about. The Lego Star Wars Holiday Special Trust me when I say this is probably the best thing associated with the Sequel Trilogy, outside of the the Lego Skywalker Saga video game (As a side note, you should also play that game next year on your twitch stream.)

Episode 20 (Breakdown) was my favorite episode of the season because it focused more on Cyclops and his background. Having Emma read his mind was a clever way to do a flashback episode.

They didn’t get a season two because the company making the toys backed out due to low sales and the show was being funded by that company so once they were gone and they couldn’t get another backer in short time it got canceled. So it’s like what happened with Young Justice (though that at least got two seasons till Mattel pulled the plug) which is also on that toy company’s fault because there was zero advertising for the toys. No ads in magazines, no tv commercials, nothing. I only found out there was action figures by pure coincidence as a local regional store called Newbury’s had some and I do regret a bit not getting the one of Emma Frost at that time as they were just under ten bucks.

Together, they have to fight against the game's antagonists, Lord Fear and his Carnival of Doom, made up of henches like Lady Illusion, Googler, Anvil, etc. The goal is to find missing pieces of an ancient Amulet of Zoar; each piece they find can unlock new characters or weapons from the game, and all of this superhero work becomes taxing on Mark's personal life at school with his friends and home with his family. But I digress. Call Dodd voices a character named Random Virus- 🙄😅Yeah, yeah. Haha, I know. But his character is still interesting; a cyborg Lightning Knight, who suffers from Dissociative Personality Disorder, due to two clashing programs, causing him to either be an ally to Ace and Mark, or an enemy, serving Lord Fear. I never realized when I first watched Ace Lightning that freaking *Wolverine* voiced one of the supporting characters. Random Virus: "How can you trust me, if I can't even trust myself, Ace?" Ace Lightning: "Because you're my friend." Random Virus: "Today, but I don't wanna find out what I could be tomorrow." Ace Lightning: "Tomorrow... you'll *still* be my friend." If you get the chance, look it up, Doug.

I hope he checks Avengers EMH

This show deserves another season great story and visuals

This show was my introduction to The X-Men. I understand your points, though.

Wish I caught this show when it came out!! It looks pretty good!

Full season is on internet archive

I think the worst thing that happened to Wolverine is becoming popular.

On the 22nd Disneycember, the Critic gave to me: Only one season?! Future Oscar winner There's two Mickeys A perfect finale Miles Morales Very overlooked movie Evil Blue-Skinned Data (from TNG) Classic Nicholas Cage A gem from the 90's. A Marvel dud Genndy Tartakovsky Blue Sky's last movie The old one is better That kickass theme song A surprise hit Welp, there's another one. A Pixar sleeper hit ANOTHER SEQUEL! Torn apart by critics We need another season! Victim of the strikes And a cult movie with a fanbase.

One of the best x-men renditions🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤❤

There's also the animated film Hulk Vs Wolverine which I believe is in the same universe as this and takes place before the show.

Yeah this universe is called the Yost universe named after Christopher Yost the guy who worked on many of these animated projects for Marvel. This universe is my personal favorite.

not sure it takes place in the same universe, as Bruce doesn't know Wolverine in their second meeting in the show. I mean Wolverine remembers The Hulk and Hulk remembers Wolverine, but it pretends like their meeting as Bruce being himself never happened.

A lot of cartoons rebooted to "Fit in with the movies" while also "Not being aloud to make people think they were in canon with the movies"

Legit grew up with this show and learnt so much about X-Men because of it as it was the only thing Australian TV would play besides the fox movies and the super hero squad show.

I liked Quicksilver in this

According to the scripts for the season 2: The Operation Zero Tolerance would have been approved by Director Kelly after his kidnapping by Magneto. Magneto being captured by the MRD after rescuing a mutant named Shiro (Sunfire). New characters would have appeared as Cameron Hodge, Victor Borwoski (Anole), Callisto, Lucid, Gazer, Unus, Kimura, Kestrel, John Sublime, Maria Callasantos (Feral) Apocalypse directing Weapon X from the shadows. The Legacy Cure by Kavita Rao; eventually she would have performed a Heel-Face Turn and abandoned the project. Pyro would have joined to the Brotherhood of Mutants. The MRD would have invaded Genosha, forcing Wanda and Lorna to move the population to Wundagore and finally to Avalon.

Another plotline from the comics I would have liked to see is the X-Men finding out Weapon X is the 10th iteration of the ongoing Weapon Plus projects, the first of which turned Steve Rogers into the first Captain America.

do they still show Wolverine smoking cigars? I always felt that was an important character trait. I know, I know, smoking is bad. But, first off, it's not dangerous for Wolverine. Second, and more importantly, Wolverine smoked cigars because of his super senses. Wolverine smokes cigars to dull the constant bombardment of scents, it keeps him sane. I thought that was a very smart trait.

Less newer Disney stuff, and more older disney stuff for future disneycembers! Plenty more DCOMs for example.

"DISNEYCEMBER 2023 Blog day 22 reenters the danger room with "Wolverine & the X-Men" this series only last one season with 26 episodes & unlike the "X-Men films" & "X-Men evolution" which last 4 seasons didn't do well with some people thank the writers strike for Cancel this show & the big question will we get a season 2 in the future ? hard to say if the writers strike keeps going it's hard to tell if not return to the danger room till the upcoming "Deadpool 3" & "Marvel Studios" to reboot the "X-Men" sometime soon hopefully"

5:04 Zordon. The big bald guy who's just a floating head giving instructions in Power Rangers is called Zordon.

You know with how those X-men adaptations goes it's intriguing how they change the characters or make their roles and acts more similar, with few of those making unique change to them, like for example i noticed Gambit is actually a heroic protagonist in 92 tv series, while in most of those he is either anti-villain or antagonist (like in this version), for Proffesor X in all of adaptations he is ultimate force of good, being esentially closest to pure good person (the least of it seems to be in 92 version, but even then he disposed most of his questionable traits, admiting his mistakes and stayed pure of heart), the same could be said for preety much anyone but that would be too much.

Fun fact : the very good (and very violent) animated movie "Hulk vs Wolverine" is a prequel to "Wolverine and the X-Men" it has been confirmed by the staff of the movie and the series. Wolverine and Hulk have also the same voice actors in the direct to video movie and this TV series. :)

Fun Fact: Wolverine has his very own anime series released in 2011

I already got that 1992 x men theme stuck in my head.

my childhood show

He didnt even mention the character development they gave nightcrawler. He was my favorite character in this show.

I use to watch this show every Friday with my dad and younger sisters. This is the show that got me into to super hero genre. During commercial break he'd tell us about animation and comic book history. Is it the gratest show ever, probably not, but it hold a special place in my heart. And in my own opinion, this is the best onscreen adaptation of the Dark Phoenix saga.
