Outside of the love triangle and the two Phoenix Sagas, Jean really had fuck all to do on X-Men: The Animated Series. It honestly feels like she was only on the show to begin with because the writers wanted to do Dark Phoenix and once that story was done they no longer had an real use for her. I'm currently halfway through season 4 and she's barely appeared. Even all the love triangle silliness with Scott and Logan has been forgotten about. I hope X-Men '97 corrects this. Really can't do with another adaptation that doesn't know what the hell to do with Jean.
