I was a fan of the X-Men long before this show began. I understand that a lot of people didn't like the 1st season especially compared to the previous animated series by Fox. The show had a goal of targeting younger audiences and people who were not necessarily familiar with the X-Men. Therefore they decided to do a reboot of the 40+ years of x-history from the books. I must admit in the initial season some episodes seem to be lacking. However with the onset of the 2nd season that crazy, wild, yet fun ride that we know to be the life of an x-man began. The season finales after that were EPIC. Also that character that everyone initially disliked, Spyke evolved into a true Hero and x-man. The series had very intense stories like Avatar the Last Airbender I used to wonder if kids enjoyed the show as much as I did until I saw my younger cousins' reactions. The voice acting was simply flawless I'd just like to say, "Thank You" to Maggie Blue O'Hara who voiced Kitty and kept my ears happy. The animation was breath taking. They even changed Wolverine's costume later to give him that edge the colourful outfit lacked. The thing I like most about this series is that we got to know these character as people not just superheroes. We had a chance to meet Jean Grey the person before she became that all powerful Phoenix. In spite of all it's youth and that unpredictable nature this is my favorite X-Men series.
