The "Night of the Sentinels" two-part episode originally aired as a "sneak preview" even though it truly wasn't ready for broadcast.

The second longest, Spider-Man: The Animated Series, lasted for five seasons and 65 episodes. Although produced by different animation studios, both series were set in the same animated universe, and the X-Men even made guest appearances on Spider-Man's show.

"
Note: I didn't get into X-Men a bit later seeing that I was more into Spider-Man, but the show was awesome. One of the best superhero shows of the 90's. "
"Although I was into Batman and Superman more, X-Men was a great animated superhero series. There was a diverse range of characters. I loved Gambit and Beast, but Wolverine was definitely my favourite. He was just bad-ass. I'm proud to say I still have this show on VHS.
