Did he actually serve in the Civil War?
editI’m so confused, is that section referencing an episode or something? If so, it should really be moved. Janlopi (talk) 17:38, 26 September 2023 (UTC)

Season II expected "Late Febbish"
editFrom the mouth of none other than PFFR. [1] Please can someone add this info to the article? I hate the way it is protected, especially when some of the information on there is wrong. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 78.105.194.48 (talk) 08:10, 11 November 2008 (UTC)
- so you must not have seen the section right below this one where i posted the same link. but that isn't a verifiable source so i guess this article will just be wrong until the second season airs.99.153.29.112 (talk) 04:48, 17 November 2008 (UTC)
The second season will begin in October 2008
editreally? cuz theres only one week left in october and Xavier isn't anywhere on the schedule.... or anywhere on their schedule for november. someone should really remove the part about new episodes airing in october. i'd do it but the article is semi-protected for some reason.99.153.29.112 (talk) 07:21, 26 October 2008 (UTC)
- well according to this bump http://www.bumpworthy.com/bumps/1093 (which was aired september 21st i think) new episodes have been made, but according to a supposed e-mail from pffr to some random person (http://boards.adultswim.com/adultswim/board/message?board.id=xavier&thread.id=2418&jump=true) new episodes won't air til february 2009. now i know that the e-mail isn't a verifiable source but the article does need to be edited to reflect the fact that season 2 is on the way but did not air in october and most likely will not show up until 2009.99.153.29.112 (talk) 07:33, 26 October 2008 (UTC)
obviously it didnt air in october, as its november as of 2 hours go (texas time)71.145.161.165 (talk) 06:55, 1 November 2008 (UTC)
sounds
editif you haven't already noticed(possibly if u have never used a mac) not only has wall street said they use alot of macs, but also, many sound effects are directly from a mac program called "GARAGE BAND" i fist took notice to this during the radio station scene in the episode, "Signs From Godrilla" . this is extreemly evident by the fact that when they play a bunch of ramndome radio sounds, they are all directly form the midi instrument/sound thing/whatever called "radio sound effects", which is in garage band.

- I'm afraid this is Original Research and does not belong on WP until you can find a verifiable source that makes this assertion. -Verdatum (talk) 15:49, 18 July 2008 (UTC)
even though i may not have written or stated proof from the makers that it is true, there's not only the fact that in a bump a few years ago they put a comment from a veiwer that was asking about them making a mac-friendly site, to which they responded that they themselves couldnt see the site correctly at the time because they too have macs, but also, there is the experience factor. i have spent over 3 years using garage band, and i'd know the sound effects anywhere. they are from the "radio sound effect" instrument. in fact, last year, about a week after posting the above, i successfully re-created the whole sound effect sequence. i had done it as a small project for my video tech class, in which we used macs, and synced them up. unfortunatly, i have no proof of this anymore, as it was a school computer, and someone in that class the next period deleted it not long after.

NPOV
editDoesn't the article appear to have someone's opinions of the show at some points? Cheers,JetLover (Report a mistake) 22:43, 26 November 2007 (UTC)

Absurdism
editMaybe this will lead to removal or keeping of a part, but ultimately will answer my question... how does absurdism relate to this show? 74.37.134.60 (talk) 05:11, 17 December 2007 (UTC)
New episode entry
editThe new episode is called "Bloodcorn". Here is the description.
"When a factory mixem-up brings a town to its dusty knees, Xavier decides to PFR (Pray For Rain), but God She take no kindly to freaks." —Preceding unsigned comment added by Ignitetheairwaves85 (talk • contribs) 22:59, 17 December 2007 (UTC)
Quotes?
editI have a list of some of the quotes Xavier says during the episodes. Since the majority of the show is rhetoric, I think this would be pertinent to add. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Tivaelydoc (talk • contribs) 08:04, 6 January 2008 (UTC)
I think we should especially add how he says Frittata every single episode at least once —Preceding unsigned comment added by Skeik Sprite (talk • contribs) 06:14, 18 July 2008
The Master
editThe Master takes after Hinduism too doesn't he? Sasodei787 (talk) 02:12, 15 January 2008 (UTC)Sasodei787
- He might, but without a verifiable and reliable source making this claim, relating the charater to any specific religion/philosophy isn't terribly appropriate, as per WP:OR. -Verdatum (talk) 15:49, 18 July 2008 (UTC)
Unsourced
editCould someone provide sources for the facts in this article? There's also a bit of an essay-ish quality to it - I don't know much about the show, so I won't attempt to edit it myself, but it needs a little cleanup. Graymornings (talk) 02:21, 20 February 2008 (UTC)
Logo
editI think it would be worthwhile to mention how the creators seem to hate the logo of the show. They put their logo on the Peak of Disappointment, and made a habit of not showing it for more then 1 second at a time. On one episode it only flashes for about 2 frames of animation before it goes away. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Skeik Sprite (talk • contribs) 06:18, 18 July 2008

- I thought that was just a running gag, to make the logo seem to have some hidden meaning. - 75.133.80.44 (talk) 05:59, 16 February 2009 (UTC)

Style and Content Edit
editI took off the comparison to World of Warcraft in the Style and Content edit because it was absurd. Despite it's cartoony aesthetic, the animation in World of Warcraft is pretty advanced. Other than being computer animated, Xavier has nothing to do with WoW. It's like comparing Wall-E to Crash Bandicoot. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.192.198.244 (talk) 05:25, 30 January 2009 (UTC)
- The animation style does strongly appear to be based upon some video game engine. It would be nice if that could be confirmed, and the specific tools used for the animation could be found. There is a new contest on adultswim.com allowing viewers to construct episodes, it may give some details. -Verdatum (talk) 18:10, 16 February 2009 (UTC)
- I wouldn't say that it's based on a game engine. It seems to resemble some of the lower-end animation from the late 80's and early 90's, like Elroy's Toy. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.114.230.110 (talk) 06:03, 2 March 2009 (UTC)
- In a recent interview, the creators mentioned that they hired a company that creates animations for video games for the animation. ZappyGun (talk to me)What I've done for Wikipedia 17:52, 6 April 2009 (UTC)
- I don't know what Elroy's Toy is, but I'd be surprised if the show did not use animation similar to a video game. Do you have a source for the interview? —Ost (talk) 20:06, 7 April 2009 (UTC)

What is strain-selectivism?
editIt is mentioned several times throughout the article as a taboo subject, something akin to racism. And yet I can't find any information anywhere on it, not on wikipedia, not on google. Searching for strain-selectivism on google brings up the Xavier wikipedia article as its first hit. Is it so taboo that not even the internet will talk about it?! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 203.219.225.83 (talk) 22:42, 1 December 2009 (UTC)
- Good question. When things like this happen, it helps to take a quick look at the history and see how long the nonsensical content has been in place. It was a random nonsense edit from 2 days ago. unexplained replacement from racism. I've reverted it. -Verdatum (talk) 08:21, 2 December 2009 (UTC)
Petition to bring back this show
editApparently someone created a petition to bring back Xavier: Renegade Angel. Is this sort of thing relevant enough to include in the article? I'm a newbie at Wikipedia and I wasn't sure if this kind of thing was even notable or not. https://www.change.org/p/john-lee-vernon-chatman-jim-tozzi-and-alyson-levy-of-pffr-adult-swim-bring-back-xavier-renegade-angel 134.129.137.108 (talk) 17:53, 7 April 2015 (UTC)
