Dude, did you watch the episodes after the pilot ??? Mr. Sinister resurected Morph, but put something in him that gave him an evil second personality who was hell bent on destroying X-Men. Wolverine tried to find and bring Morph back to the home afterwards, but i haven't watched all the episodes as well, Fox Kids didn't air Animated X-Men till the end.

Eh, if the entirety of adding a simple, extra layer of interest to Morph (which as Demona points out totally fits the character anyway) is people calling him they instead of him, I don't see the issue. IF they do a 2 episode arc about it, and the struggles associated with it, then yeah, that's a problem for me.

Yep!! I am so looking forward to more Sinister in this new series.... He was my favorite villain in the show.

Valid. But are you not going to watch over something like that? Meanwhile, online the nostalgia continues to be shattered... and the memes are great

No i will watch it for sure and unless they pull a MOTU revolution season 1 im sure I will enjoy it for the most part (I hope). Its just stuff like this that makes me roll my eyes, i mean its a f_cking cartoon

I don't remember that. Thanks for clarifying. I just remember Wolverine hating Cyclops for leaving Morph to die.

It starts with a cartoon, then it takes over everything like the disease that it is.

i had very little interest in it to begin with, i know the current creatives (and i use that word very loosely) don't have the level of talent to keep the quality of the original series to begin with but i was willing to give it a chance until i saw how poorly the trailer looked and with the obvious inevitable injection of leftwing nonsense i see no reason to even glance in its direction until i hear some reviews from folks that it is worth my time, and my time is mostly worthless so that should tell you how little faith i have in this project.

Same. This kind of stuff is why I cancelled Netflix and Disney+ a couple years ago. Did just give Netflix a retry and out of 20 + shows I started to watch I only made it through two of them. Cancelled again

I think that new element of Morph (a character I never liked anyway) is unneccesary, but it’s an X-Men cartoon, so I’ll watch.
