Previously...on X-Men
I'd be interested in seeing what they'd do with it. It would be interesting to incorporate certain things that had happened in the comics since the TAS ended, like Jean dying and Cyclops in a relationship with Emma Frost, maybe the destruction of Genosha by the Sentinels. But stray not too far from what TAS had established for itself.
John Colicos has passed away so he can't voice Apocalypse. Magneto's voice actor, David Hemblen is getting there, but maybe an aged Magneto would be good.

This sounds like a situation of "We would like to do this, but Disney isn't giving it much thought so let's get the fans to rally behind it".

I always had this idea of an X-Men TAS continuation set about ten years after the original series ended. Xavier is still in space, most of the original X-Men are retired or left the team, notably Scott and Jean are off raising a family. The current X-Men team is led by Jubilee (who may or may not be a vampire, I haven't decided), and includes Wolverine and Beast (who has some grey hair mixed in with his blue fur), and the rest of the team is made up of X-Men characters who have come up in popularity since the original show ended, like X-23 and Pixie.

This makes me glad I'm not reading the current X comics. They've been shitty and pointless since X-Statix ended like 15 years ago.

Over time, I've come to believe Fatal Attractions was the perfect ending to X-Men, with Adventures of Cyclops and Phoenix the epilogue. Both deal with Magneto and Apocalypse as permanently as it got for comics back then, and even gave Logan the type of closure with his adiantium that even the movies didn't quite cover. I'd love a potential new series of X-Men TAS to cover those storylines more than anything we saw in the 2000s.

I can understand that, but W&TXM lasted 1 season and was 11 years ago, it's been a long time and no one is going back to watch W&TXM. I feel the status quo shouldn't be the same as it was in 1997 when the show ended. There had been substantial events from the characters in that time that changed their status quo. For like if Xavier had come back to Earth, everyone wasn't just in stasis. Like maybe Gambit and Rogue are married and in semi-retirement while there are new members of the team like recurring Archangel and Colossus as permanent members. And some new introduced characters, Laura is pretty popular and giving the paternal TAS Logan an adoptive daughter would be interesting. I wouldn't want them to lean into Morrison or Whedon or Hickman.

Once Marvel learned that having a big cross over every year in the X titles boosted sales the series went to crap. For every bright spot you end up with long stretches of crap like when Scott Lobdell was writing the X-men.

On the one hand, it feels very weird to me that people were even thinking such a thing makes sense considering how old that show is and how many X-Men cartoons came after it.
On the other hand, that third season was animated poorly and they all looked like sludge monsters so any opportunity to redeem that, I kind of approve of.
On the other, other, other hand, The freaking Mysterious Cities of Gold can get a second season after 20 something years, nothing can be ruled out anymore.

Honestly I don't really think it'd be worth the effort. I feel like making a new X-Men cartoon in the vein of the old one would be much more of a winning move; you don't really have any associated baggage (since there are a lot of ways the old series hasn't aged great), it makes it easier to attract newcomers since people don't really need to binge on it, and you could modernize aspects of its makeup more easily.

Would have to be recast as the original voice a tress is now a serving member of the Canadian parliament I'm not holding my breath for this to go into production, but I genuinely think she'd want to do it. Alyson Court wants to step down from playing Jubilee, though.

I'd rather have an X-Men Evolution revival. That was one of my fav shows as a kid
