The nostalgia factor in this animated series is truly remarkable. The creators did an exceptional job of capturing the essence of the original 90s characters. However, there is one notable drawback in the form of voice casting. Some voices, like those of characters Rogue and Wolverine, are difficult to listen to. Despite this flaw, the overall voice work for other characters is commendable, making the show enjoyable. After completing the series and reflecting on my initial review, I have decided to revise my rating from 4 1/2 stars to 3 1/2 stars. While the show excels in nostalgia and character creativity, there are certain aspects that detract from the overall experience. The introduction of Cable as the son of Scott and Jean, a plot point I disliked from the comics, was disappointing. The portrayal of Cable as a sassy and somewhat entitled character felt like a departure from the original concept, which was disheartening. While I appreciate inclusivity in storytelling, it felt forced at times in the series. The constant emphasis on representation, such as with Morph's non-binary character, seemed overwhelming, especially in a cartoon aimed at a younger audience. While I am supportive of diversity, I believe it should be integrated thoughtfully and not overshadow the narrative. In conclusion, despite my reservations about certain aspects of the show, I still recommend giving it a watch. X-Men has always been a favorite superhero franchise of mine, and the series has its merits. It may not be perfect, but it is worth exploring for fans of the X-Men universe.

Doctor Who Confidential is a documentary series created by the British Broadcasting Corporation to complement the revival of the long-running British science fiction television series Doctor Who. Each episode was broadcast on BBC Three on Saturdays, immediately after the broadcast of the weekly television episode on BBC One. The running time of the first two series was 30 minutes, being extended to 45 minutes in the third. BBC Three also broadcast a cut-down edition of the programme, lasting 15 minutes, shown after the repeats on Sundays and Fridays and after the weekday evening repeats of earlier seasons. Described as focusing on the human element of the series, Confidential features behind-the-scenes footage on the making of Doctor Who through clips and interviews with the cast, production crew and other people, including those who have participated in the television series over the years of its existence. Each episode deals with a different topic, and in most cases refers to the Doctor Who episode that preceded it. There have also been two episodes of Doctor Who Confidential broadcast apart from the showing of Doctor Who episodes: in November 2006 an edition subtitled "Music and Monsters" was produced going behind the scenes of a televised concert of soundtrack music produced as part of that year's Children in Need appeal, and on 3 January 2009, a special edition was broadcast to announce the actor chosen to play the Eleventh Doctor.
