So glad I grew up in the 90’s. I was in 6th grade when this show and Batman the Animated series came out. Before that I was already hooked on Tiny Toons, Ghostbusters, TMNT and the original Nick Toons (Doug, Rugrats, Ren&Stimpy). If you were a kid throughout the 80’s and 90’s; you lived through the 2 best decades of cartoons ever! 😎
I just watched the first season again this week randomly. It’s just as good as I remember it being when I was a kid. Whoever wrote the movies clearly didn’t watch because they wouldn’t have done such a horrible job.
Despite the differences, this is still the best adaptation of the X-Men comics, much better than either of the movie franchises, especially in the depictions of Mystique and Rogue. And though Hugh Jackman will forever be the quintessential Wolverine in live action, Cal Dodd holds that place in animation. It was Dodd who established the character and paved the way for everything that came after, including Jackman.
I'm sure they won't, but it would be wise for the MCU to use the X-Men animated series as a blueprint for the future movie franchise. I liked a couple of the X-Men movies, but never really felt like they were a true homage to the comics. The X-Men animated series was like the stories jumped off of the comic book pages and onto our televisions. Great stories, great representations of our favorite mutants.
I like it when cartoons are made for adults as well as kids. For one, this means they hold up well years later when you watch it as a grownup and you can enjoy it with your kids.
@@babyfaceaviator7862 Agreed. In fact the voice acting of Rogue and Gambit was absolutely awful. I'm from the South and those accents were horribly laughable.
Films should be made based off this show. The X men have gotten cheated when it comes to the movies and deserve more. The intro in the theater alone would get the audience's adrenaline going.
This adaptation had the best description of how Rogue was to look and the character who voiced her in the show, loved the southern accent that she gave to Rogue's charm.
X-Men The Animated Series was incredible because it had a continuing narrative which was rare for a kid’s show at the time. Nearly every single kid’s show now is not only episodic, but some of them even have multiple short stories within one 22 min show. I loved Batman The Animated Series, which aired during the same era, and despite Batman The Animated Series holding up much better by comparison now, both shows took the young viewing audiences more seriously than any previous American animated shows that aired before prime time, or in the case of Batman The Animated Series, after school hours.
This cartoon really changed my life. I hadn't heard of the X-Men comics before seeing the cartoon, so because of it I began collecting and trying to learn how to draw my own X-Men comics. I wanted to be a comic book artist for a few years but was never happy with just still drawings. I wanted to see them move like the cartoon. Eventually I realized you can go to school to learn animation so fast forward to today and I'm an animator. Without the X-Men cartoon I don't know if I would've taken drawing as seriously as I did and not sure what I would be doing with my life now.
The show,is what introduced xmen to me and I have been hooked ever since,I can't get enough,so many possibilities to go with and explore from characters,powers and more
This! Turned 21 in 1992 and watched the X-Men and Batman animated series. The Simpsons also came into its own from The Tracy Ullman Show and it was also a must-see back then. Edit: I was also quite disappointed that Gambit was never really featured when the live action films came out.
The note about the X-men "title was relatively obscure and Lewald had to make due with whatever source material he could find" is very strange. The X-Men #1 book from 1991 is the biggest selling comic book issue of all time and has sold over 8 million copies. At the time the animated series was being developed, X-Men comics were the biggest comics of the time and super popular. There were dozens of issues to use as a reference and readily available.
The thing that annoys me was calling the X-Men Special! Boxed Set a board game. It is a boxed set focused on the X-Men as part of the tabletop role playing game for Marvel Super Heroes. The Official Handbooks Of The Marvel Universe were the Marvel Comics detailed information about the Marvel Comics multiverse. For the rpg, 8 volumes of the Gamer's Handbooks Of The Marvel Universe were created. TSR had full access to the warehouses in New Jersey where Marvel kept the output of the Mighty Marvel Bullpen. Even though Marvel & TSR did not continue production in 1993, the fanbase is still playing it. The TSR books are legally freely available as PDFs from a couple websites. New content is either done as retroclones or in classic format as fan content. A single phone call and a credit card could have all the resource material needed for ten series from comic book shops nationwide.
Yep, when when I was in middle school back in '91 X-Men comics were very popular. I wasn't into the X comics, but remember vividly when Weapon X came out. I was into Spidey comics and Darkhawk, but did enjoy this show and got to know the characters through the show.
This whole video just pulls information from articles over the years and the "Previously on X-Men" book by Eric Lewald...and somehow gets it wrong. He had said in the book that Larry Houston was a huge fan and had decades worth of X-Men comics, the team spent days reading them while writing the show Bible
That was a great trip down memory lane. I was absolutely enthralled by the animated series and recorded each one, from the first on VHS. I may still have them somewhere. Thanks so much for this video.
I was a pretty big comic book nerd back when this show first started. Never a big X-Men fan but the show completely changed that . By far one of the greatest cartoons ever made .
Another fun fact was on Thanksgiving morning 1992 Fox had a kid (who won a contest) choose which shows would air that morning and he choose X-Men for the number 1 most requested show to watch. And Fox aired the 3rd episode with animation errors.
That episode being Enter Magneto! Also X-Men kept winning that contest several years in a row. Eventually it got surpassed by Mighty Morphin Power Rangers, but X-Men took second place then.
One of my favorite cartoons from the 90s. I lived in Mexico so they were dubbed in Spanish. A little arcade opened by my house that had the game and I was just the happiest 10 kid in town! Thank you for the nostalgia and memories.
Personally I think Rogue got screwed over in the movies it damn sucked, x3 she could have had a bigger part oh well 🙄. Rogue is one of my favorites from the animated and movies besides Wolvie
X-Men was my favorite cartoon as a kid during the 90s! Though, the Wolverine heavy episodes were boring to me, because I prefer the episodes with powers displayed. With Wolverine's it was mostly physical attacks. Storm and Rogue are my favorite characters.
I've never heard of this show until Disney+ recommended it to me in 2022. I binged it and was genuinely surprised by how good a children's cartoon from 30 years ago could be!
I really loved the X-MEN cartoon series! But as an adult, work or something else prevented me from seeing every episode back then. Now I can see them anytime I want on the SMART TV. Wolverine and Storm are my favorite characters!
And this was when I developed a really strong crush on Rogue, and was devastated when I finally came to terms with it being impossible to date a cartoon character lol childhood is funny 🤣😂☺️
Excellent show. I was 22 when this came out, and I never missed it. Used to set my vcr to record it. It was written in such a way that it could appeal to a fairly wide age range.
This animated series was my drive for studying well because it was shown during Friday nights in our country. The thought that all my efforts studying would be paid off by an amazing animated series to close the school days just pump my adrenaline to study well. I was so enamored by Prof X.
I love that Wolverine was Australian in the original animated episode. Prophetic. We were obsessed with the X-Men, the cartoon, the cards, the comics, the games. The 90's were the best time to be a kid in every way. When Saturday morning was a Holy Day.
Even Pizza Hut got involved in the Xmen ....I still have the 2 video tapes of episode 1 and 2 of Xmen the animated series and the mini comic books that came with them ...I even got the promo stand up of Bishop from this promotional event ...
Super cool didn't know this came out 2 weeks before I was born. Love the series had em all on cassette. Favorites were the Wolverine Sabertooth fights blue sheeted cassettes.
It blew my mind. Never any other tv content or movie hit so hard. The starting theme itself still. Like Star Trek previously did, it raised questions and moral/ethic issues that were no common on these shows.
Check this out. During the 1st season when Bishop first appears at the end of the episode he accuses Gambit of being a traitor. Well the comic book it was based on (not the original Days of Future Past) had been released only a week eariler.
"The title was relatively obscure." 🤣 It was coming off the Claremont era and had just rebooted with a new issue 1 in October 1991. It was a hot ticket in comics at that time.
Did anyone else notice how they changed the voice actress for storm in the middle of the series and then went back and re-dubbed all of the reruns in the new voice? It was distinctly different.
great video. i loved the x-men so much i'd use the vcr to record episodes. it was great as a comicbook collector to see em on tv. i probably have over 1000 comics of various x-men titles.
Catherine Disher who voiced Jean grey also voiced Jill Valentine in Resident Evil Nemesis annnnnd Alyson Court who voiced Jubilee also voiced Claire Redfield!
The first four seasons of X-Men, The Animated Series are better than all the movies they've made thus far IMHO. My favorite is their take on The Phoenix Saga. The animated show did it much more justice than the film franchise.
To this very day, the X-Men series remains the definitive take on the characters for me. Even the villains, particularly Magneto and Apocalypse, were defined for me here. I pray the next live action version of En Sabah Nur speaks the same way the character does in this animated series.
All X-Men the animated series or the cartoon whatever you want to call it. Most definitely Epic and wonderful this was From back in the day and yes my all-time favorite X-Men character is and always will be rogue, she's just way too awesome
I remember reading a xmen crossover where spiderman and ironman fight giant Sentinels and miniture sentinels inside the Sentinels to destroy the Sentinels The XMen show up and help Spiderman and Ironman clean house on the Sentinals this was one of the best comics I ever read to bad I lost it
The theme song alone is worth the price of admission, but I’ve rewatched most of the episodes for all the character interactions which are far above the caliber of Saturday morning cartoon standards back then.
It wasn't kids/families doing regular things. They could fight back in cool ways, this & the animated Batman show didn't look like the cartoons that had come before.
X-Men always appealed to me more than other superhero stuff because there weren't cheesy ways ppl got their superpowers. It was just the way you were born/evolution and that theme resonated for a lot of minorities and ppl in the LGBTQ community
Yeah I'll say there were Animation Issues, Originally When Wolverine Thinks he's Covered in Scorpions The Scorpions were Nearly Invisible, Then in Later Cuts The Scorpions look real.
I feel like a 10 year old again when i hear that music. I'm sort of glad the storyline was loose, helped introduce many characters and social vignettes that continue to happen to our world even until today: discrimination, bio-warfare, slave camps, bible fear, armed militias, planetary exodus, latchkey kids. Someone did their homework with this one.
Yeah, it's coming back, but with the recent passing of Cal Dodd, there might be some delay in replacing the iconic voice actor when recording lines for Wolverine since the majority of the original voice actors were reprising their roles.
What did you like the most in “X-Men: The Animated Series”?
The Apocalypse Saga
Wolverine
One Man's Worth, Days of Future Past and Beyond Good and Evil, great episodes!
The Phoenix Saga

So glad I grew up in the 90’s. I was in 6th grade when this show and Batman the Animated series came out. Before that I was already hooked on Tiny Toons, Ghostbusters, TMNT and the original Nick Toons (Doug, Rugrats, Ren&Stimpy). If you were a kid throughout the 80’s and 90’s; you lived through the 2 best decades of cartoons ever! 😎
and the theme song still slaps today
I just watched the first season again this week randomly. It’s just as good as I remember it being when I was a kid. Whoever wrote the movies clearly didn’t watch because they wouldn’t have done such a horrible job.
All facts
Born in 1985 and when “Saturday morning cartoons” was a thing, this was the show I looked forward to the most.
How about Biker Mice From Mars,Silver Hawk,Technoman,Gumby Samurai Pizza Cats & The Sooty Show and that hot water bottle 1? Lol.
Despite the differences, this is still the best adaptation of the X-Men comics, much better than either of the movie franchises, especially in the depictions of Mystique and Rogue. And though Hugh Jackman will forever be the quintessential Wolverine in live action, Cal Dodd holds that place in animation. It was Dodd who established the character and paved the way for everything that came after, including Jackman.
Evolution was a good one too

I feel the films in one sense didn't do the cartoon series featured but at least the films were made
Totally one of my favorites had some of the toys aswell
You speaking nothing but facts
The voice acting was pitch perfect.
Plus, it was a cartoon that had the courage to tackle larger themes like racism and religion.
You should rewatch the series again and realize the voice acting wasn't that great
I like it when cartoons are made for adults as well as kids. For one, this means they hold up well years later when you watch it as a grownup and you can enjoy it with your kids.
And it used allegory for these difficult subjects. Instead of modern cartoons who are ruined by politics being there not so subtle....
@@babyfaceaviator7862 Agreed. In fact the voice acting of Rogue and Gambit was absolutely awful. I'm from the South and those accents were horribly laughable.
😍💯
Films should be made based off this show. The X men have gotten cheated when it comes to the movies and deserve more. The intro in the theater alone would get the audience's adrenaline going.
Ikr. I always saw Cylclops as a tough guy leader,not a sookyboy,pussy weakling. Lol.
Indeed! I was expecting the intro of it in the 1st movie! 🤗
I use to watch it with my nephews when they were little. It was a good animated show. Rogue & Gambit were my favorite.
This adaptation had the best description of how Rogue was to look and the character who voiced her in the show, loved the southern accent that she gave to Rogue's charm.
I remember the Readers Digest article that gave X-Men: The Animated Series an A+ rating for diversity and overall theme.
The voice acting was incredible! Still the voices I hear for these characters in my head till this day!
The absolute highlight of my Saturday mornings as a kid.
Same! Us 90s kids lived in the golden age of cartoons.
I have such nostalgia right now watching this. I loved this show as a kid and still do.

A superb series that gave an excellent sense of the epic scale of the X-Men universe.
Not just popular with the kids, I was in my 20s and taped Fox Saturday morning shows, especially the X-Men, when it was in first run.
Same here and I got my 25 + year old roommates into it to by playing the tapes. I had a tape for every season.
@@garyhall2770 The Tick and Spider-Man ran in the same two hour block IIRC.

Still love it.
Damm i was on hooked on this show. Loved the intro song.
I was too
Disney plus has it
I foolishly compared myself to Storm and Jean Gray, I was in grade school and I thought that was what beautiful women and I should look like them
One of my favorite cartoons from the 90s. I lived in Mexico so they were dubbed in Spanish. A little arcade opened by my house that had the game and I was just the happiest 10 kid in town! Thank you for the nostalgia and memories.
Agreed I will be 42 this year and have great memories of this show every Saturday morning. Can still hear the opening music in my head. :-)
7:18 amazing the power these type of show have, the power to save lives and inspire
When will Rogue get her own show/film....the voice actress was fantastic.
Personally I think Rogue got screwed over in the movies it damn sucked, x3 she could have had a bigger part oh well 🙄. Rogue is one of my favorites from the animated and movies besides Wolvie
Yes, Rouge needs to be in the MCU already. she can come and kill that Bitch Captain Marvel while shes at it 🤣
I'd like to see an emotional story where she falls in love with a non mutant but they can't be close or something lol
Imagine Anna Paquin absorbing Brie Larson, I'd totally buy that...
In the comics, Rogue gets her flying power from touching Captain Marvel and stealing her power. Ha ha! I would love to see that.
X-Men was my favorite cartoon as a kid during the 90s! Though, the Wolverine heavy episodes were boring to me, because I prefer the episodes with powers displayed. With Wolverine's it was mostly physical attacks. Storm and Rogue are my favorite characters.
Phenomenal show 😌
This X men series was amazing I watched it all the time when it was on when I was growing up 👍
Thanks for the upload
Glad you enjoyed it!
I own these all on dvd, still watch till this day
I love the x-men. Do you have any videos on X-men Evolution??
I've never heard of this show until Disney+ recommended it to me in 2022. I binged it and was genuinely surprised by how good a children's cartoon from 30 years ago could be!
I do remember watching this as a kid, I remember I would wait for it at 7pm after the Friday news.
I miss the days of Saturday morning cartoons and cereal. Kids will never know. Great vid and an epic show.
This, Gi Joe and He-Man were my shows!! Even as a teen this show in fall 92 was my life Saturday morning lol.
Then you missed out 😜
I really loved the X-MEN cartoon series! But as an adult, work or something else prevented me from seeing every episode back then. Now I can see them anytime I want on the SMART TV. Wolverine and Storm are my favorite characters!

Excellent show. I was 22 when this came out, and I never missed it. Used to set my vcr to record it. It was written in such a way that it could appeal to a fairly wide age range.
This came along right around the time I was REALLY into X Men and the stories mashed up perfectly for what I knew. I love this series!
This and Spider-Man were my favorite cartoons of the childhood... what a memories ))
X Men were by no means an "obscure" line at this time. I was there. X-men comics were wildly popular at this time.
Never knew I needed this closure. Thanks for making this.

Wolverine on this show is why I love wolverines character… him and gambit
I loved this show in the 90s!
Spiderman, had X-men cross-overs, in the 90s series, & Spiderman Amazing friends
Looking forward to Xmen 97 from Disney plus
One thing I liked is that they did The Phoenix Saga justice. They tried twice in the movies and failed miserably both times.
Best show of my childhood.
One of the best tv shows of all time!
My favorite cartoon of all time.
I recorded all the episodes on VHS tape and watched them over and over again until my eyes hurt.
Catherine Disher who voiced Jean grey also voiced Jill Valentine in Resident Evil Nemesis annnnnd Alyson Court who voiced Jubilee also voiced Claire Redfield!
The theme song it's what made it, so whoever focused on that n kept pushing to make it better n better deserves the credit
I'm 40 now and I still have all in DVDs
The first four seasons of X-Men, The Animated Series are better than all the movies they've made thus far IMHO. My favorite is their take on The Phoenix Saga. The animated show did it much more justice than the film franchise.
Wow! Just wow! I used to watch this show religiously. Never knew they went through so much strife to make it a reality. Great job, everyone!
Best animated cartoon ever.. I was fortunate to watch the series when it started.. Didn't like the way it ended tho..
To this very day, the X-Men series remains the definitive take on the characters for me. Even the villains, particularly Magneto and Apocalypse, were defined for me here. I pray the next live action version of En Sabah Nur speaks the same way the character does in this animated series.
All X-Men the animated series or the cartoon whatever you want to call it.

The theme song alone is worth the price of admission, but I’ve rewatched most of the episodes for all the character interactions which are far above the caliber of Saturday morning cartoon standards back then.
I was just into my teens and just getting into X-Men, I loved the show.
They dwarfed Rogue in the movies, and Storm somewhat
Even as I clicked on the video & the ads were playing… I was hearing the X-Men theme music in my head
I traded my pogs for the trading cards just to know who was who. The theme song hyped me up to go through those cards
Without this cartoon we wouldn't have the movies I really believe that
Great show
X-men still kick ass today. 😀👍
Loved this show and never missed an episode
Still the best adaptation. Diverse, intelligent, and unafraid to admit that sometimes good doesn’t triumph.
This is where the MCU really began.
It wasn't kids/families doing regular things. They could fight back in cool ways, this & the animated Batman show didn't look like the cartoons that had come before.
The show has one of the most badass intro theme music 👏👏👏
Ahhhh... my childhood!... this show taught me ALOT of shit about being a good human!
Maybe im biased but this and exmen evolution was one of the best cartoons i watched then and now
Wolverine & The X-Men was a great series, too!
@@GodlessG0D yes it was. I was pissed when it was canceled
X-Men always appealed to me more than other superhero stuff because there weren't cheesy ways ppl got their superpowers. It was just the way you were born/evolution and that theme resonated for a lot of minorities and ppl in the LGBTQ community
It’s amazing future generations may never see this series. It was truly a masterpiece
It is on Disney+...
@@thejimg yeah but there’s always people who miss out due to nuances
Yeah I'll say there were Animation Issues, Originally When Wolverine Thinks he's Covered in Scorpions The Scorpions were Nearly Invisible, Then in Later Cuts The Scorpions look real.
Spidey is such a hero that you can't keep him away, even when the Big Brass orders him to stay away!
It was a hit in Philippines aired every Friday night. It spawned trading cards and poor low budget version of the local film.
Anyone remember being able to get the VHS of Night of the Sentinels and Enter Magneto at Pizza Hut?
Yep I got that. I cant remember if I was introduced to xmen from that or I was watching it before I got that.
I feel like a 10 year old again when i hear that music. I'm sort of glad the storyline was loose, helped introduce many characters and social vignettes that continue to happen to our world even until today: discrimination, bio-warfare, slave camps, bible fear, armed militias, planetary exodus, latchkey kids. Someone did their homework with this one.
