Wolverine and the X-Men (2008–2009)
8/10
The Best X-Men series EVER!!!!

Warning: Spoilers
So, I was a bit skeptical at first glance of this show. I mean, I hate Wolverine, and seeing him a leader just didn't sit right with me. But It is the X-Men and I love the X-Men, so of course I was going to tune it. And I was blown away. For a modern "children's" animated series, this show is full of action, drama, emotion, and character development (for the most part). Now, the first few episodes didn't exactly send me flying out of my seat, but it does have a pretty long (26 episode) season, so of course there as going to be some good and some bad episodes. I waited to review the show until seeing the entire first season, and it's great. I'd say about 2/3 of the first season is good. My favorite episodes of the season would be Hindsight Parts 2 & 3 (ep.2-3), Time Bomb (ep.8), Future X (ep.9), Greetings from Genosha (ep.10), eXessive Force (ep.12) Backlash (ep.18), and Foresight parts 1-3 (ep.24,25,26). Before this, Evolution was my favorite X-Men show, but this just blows Evolution, Pryde, and TAS right out of the water. If you don't think so, just wait until the final three, which will give you a payoff you can't wait to be followed up on.
