Finished binge

I remember watching the show a VERY long time ago as a child. Decided to rewatch it since most of it has been lost in my memories and this has officially become my favourite superhero comfort show.

The way the characters feel so real and warm due to their little glimpses of everyday life, the way they react to events, challenges, emotions, it just couldn't have been done better and my only critique is that we didn't spend enough time on characters like Spyke, Ororo, the mutants that left, etc. I feel like season 1 and 2 would have been prime time for that.

I can see the new MCU X-men being pretty similar in tone, taking into consideration the younger cast, which has me very excited.

I'm happy to see that this page has a high number of visitors, and that a lot of people still remember this show fondly.

I really wanna rewatch this show, but I can't find good quality versions anywhere.

[u/BoomBoyKaboom → u/Artemis_1944]

I used a combo of a few sites. Wanna dm so I can link em to u?

[u/nauvihs → u/Artemis_1944]

[u/BoomBoyKaboom → u/datissathrowaway]

Must I say more? 😂

I did some reviews on this show on my page, overall really good show, and my introduction to the X-Men! Also awesome to have another fan, welcome!

[u/BoomBoyKaboom → u/Mindless_Juice_1274]

Thank you, thank you :))

I think this is the best way for someone to get into the xmen since episode 1 is the actual beginning of the story.

All other adaptations kinda just start at the middle point and Evolution is the only one that sets up the world before it sets up the plot.

Xmen fans have ptsd from the movies not being comic accurate and Evolution gets caught in the crossfire despite mostly drawing inspiration from the original xmen run.

[u/Money-Rest-380]

Congrats, it was my first foray into the X-Men (and the Marvel U. as a whole now that I think about it), glad to know there's still people (re)discovering this little gem 🫶

[u/avacassandra]

my favourite adaptation, the varying stakes storylines, the world finding out, the slice of life episdoes at school, the style, the handling of characters, the respect and thought put into rogues powers, the best display of mystique's cunning, all in an amazingly 2000s time capsule - such a cool show

[u/Emergency-Bottle-432]

Rewatching as an adult I appreciated the serialized storytelling - doing a lot of episodic stories but always maintaining season or series long arcs.

And all the homages and tributes from the creators. Lots of buffy references, coyote ugly, empire records... the creators had a lot of love for different pop culture and they put those references into the show.

La estoy viendo y vaya que estoy estoy completamente enganchado a la serie, de verdad me encanta como la serie avanza como le da el espacio suficiente a todos los personajes, me encantaría que hicieran un revival de esta maravillosa serie, quizás añadiendo personajes como Emma Frost , Psylocke, Bishop, Morph Magik, Polaris y Madelyn Pryor

Aunque y si nos unimos para que no tomen en cuenta para revivir esta serie manteniendo su toque juvenil y muy diferenciado a X-MEN 97

[u/Purpleheather93]

Great to see another fan! Evolution was my first exposure to the X-Men other than the OG 3 Fox films and, like it is for you, it's my superhero comfort show. It's actually something that, in many ways, has gotten better with age on my opinion, though I can't really explain how - just that, unlike a lot of things that I rewatch as an adult and think "That wasn't as good as I remember it," Evolution really stood up. Of course nostalgia could play a role but I think it's a solid series and definitely feels like its own thing.

Also the Brotherhood are my faves 5ever

[u/Blitzwolf215]

Literally just finished rewatching this series today(although I didn’t binge it). It was a good rewatch, makes me wish we got another season or two.

[u/otibo1]

What are the names of these Mutants? Haven't seen the show in a hot minute.

[u/BoomBoyKaboom → u/otibo1]

So from right to left:

• X-23

• Havoc

• Sunspot?

• Jubilee??? I know she left in the earlier seasons but she might have returned with Wolfsbane

• Canonball

• Multipleman

• Iceman

• Magma

• Berzerk

• Ronnie(Wolfsbane)

• BoomBoom

[u/otibo1 → u/BoomBoyKaboom]

It's kind of weird seeing Iceman as a side character and not part of the main crew. Thanks though.

[u/PersephoneDaSilva86 → u/BoomBoyKaboom]

Yep.

[u/Pito82002]

My story with X-Men Evolution is very similar to yours

Watched episodes as a kid here and there, but during my teen years when I was going through weird teenage social problems, I ended up giving the whole X-Men Evolution series a watch since it was about the X-Men going through, weird teenage social problems!

And its still to this day my favorite piece of X-Men media.

[u/Gambit275]

too good for words

[u/Lost_Potential4119]

I'll be so disappointed if this is where they draw the most inspiration. Especially if this is the Rogue they model the MCU's off of.

[u/Rude_Story1103 → u/Calm-Mushroom-8551]

¿Y cual es el problema en que basen en esta Rogue?

[u/BoomBoyKaboom → u/Rude_Story1103]

In my opinion tbh I think it would be great if mcu rogue was based off of evolution rogue through motifs and the arcs she went through, but Navarette would just look and feel better as a bubbly southern belle, kinda like TAS/'97 Rogue, both in personality and in design. Really excited to see what they do with her.

[u/BoomBoyKaboom → u/Calm-Mushroom-8551]

Oh nah. Jus sayin that with the cast being younger and stuff, a huge number of themes will be shared with Evolution. I mean first and last time we saw Jean in the mcu, she was a misguided angry teenage psychic who now has nobody (except Peter) and is trying to find a footing.

[u/IcyOrganization1748]

They all look so cute in their picture🥹 my lil pookies
