Hyped for this, do we know if they're doing the early episode drop (like 8pm ET) or is it the traditional midnight PT?

Nice OT.

Even though this isn't MCU, the X-takeover of Marvel Studios is about to officially begin.

Really looking forward to this. The music already hits that nostalgia.

Thanks for the OT! Really looking forward to this.

Slightly spoilery new clip with Jean and Storm!

Jennifer just straight up using her Wolverine and the X-Men voice, lol. I was kinda hoping she'd try to emulate Catherine a bit more, the way that Ray Chase nailed the Norm Spencer imitation. Alison sounds amazing as Storm though, really loving the voice direction so far. And I'm glad they're really honing on in their sisterly relationship, something that they only touched upon a few times in the OG show.

Ah whatever, I am just gonna watch it without any recaps etc.😆 If I like it I can go back some other time and watch the og. I also need to watch Batman TAS, Justice League, Batman Beyond...

Only saw a couple episodes of those here and there as a child.

I was more into Spider-Man than X-Men at the time, but I'm still pumped for this. Seeing a Spider-Man '97 type revival would cause me to explode

12am midnight PDT, 3am EDT, unfortunately. Apparently that's when the review embargo ends as well.

I'm gonna be so disappointed if they didn't get Christopher Daniel Barnes in for a quick cameo to finally repay the X-Men for guest starring on his show. Still bummed they didn't get him for the Spider-Verse movies.

Yup very hyped for this! And I really only went up to season 1 and early season 2 so I went ahead and watched a 1-hour recap video to catch up more or less. Time management is a pain.

Not that I remember any plot lines from the OG, but is this mirroring the original or is the writing completely new?

I'm so happy that Nightcrawler is finally part of the main cast. Him and Colossus being guest stars always felt wrong.
