As is, I doubt this show will have half the character development that took place in Evolution.
Ih....Practically every episode dealt with character development be it Rogue's and Kurt's relation with Mystique, X-23's coming to terms with her issues, Xavier dealing with Legion...shit Boom-Boom got character development with her father.
Even the bad guys got it with Gambit's ep about his life with the Thief Guild and his father and of course learning about Colossus' reasons for being with Magneto and of course who can forget Lance having feelings for Kitty and that gives us some good episodes.
And as much as I didn't like him we also got to see Spyke's development in a few eps.
Denying character development in Evolution is like saying Rogue doesn't have purple lipstick or that Professor Xavier isn't in a wheelchair...it just ignores facts.

I feel the same way about Wolverine. I thought the appearance of the Hulk was a nice touch since we have the pages of that comic to thank for the endless and mindless relegation of each and every other X-character to the passenger seat of storylines and mythology. However, I really liked the look of the series. I am very much in favor of reinterpreting the mythology in a much more coherent manner and it looks like that's what is happening. I'll admit when I first heard about this series I was 100% put off by the title. I assumed it was just another vehice for the character of Wolverine and an appeasment of his fan base at the expense of other X-fans. But it looks like it's going to be really good. I just hope at some point Magneto's antagonist past is explored. Also, where is Jean? I've never really been a big fan of the Scott/Emma love affair.

if its on, i'll watch it, but from the trailer so far, i'm not too optimistic... i still think the original TAS in the 90s set the standard for x-men cartoons...

I love how my question was ignored earlier...AGAIN what channel in the u.s is this to appear on?
Marvel has released the new trailer for the upcoming Wolverine and the X-Men cartoon slated for a Spring, 2009 debut. As reported earlier, the new animated series will debut on Nicktoons. And yes, this trailer is the animation without Foo Fighters' music.
Nicktoons.

[B]I sooo hope to GOD that Jean will NOT be in the series!!! She's ok, but everytime she is pictured in whatever media it all comes down to a big Phoenix storyline ... i'm tired of it.
Apparently not. It was meant to premiere on CBBC on the 2nd but didn't. There was an empty time slot on the 9th but that has since been filled by some other show.
According to someone who's been in communication with the BBC on another forum, all they're willing to say with any certainty is that it will air sometime in August.
