It appears that plans for season three of BBC’s Atlantis have sunk. The TV show, which airs on BBC America here in the States, has been cancelled after two seasons.
On Atlantis, a young man named Jason (Jack Donnelly) goes in search of his long-missing father and ends up on the shores of ancient Atlantis. He’s befriended by a pair of unlucky locals — former prize fighter Hercules (Mark Addy) and intellectual Pythagoras (Robert Emms) — as well as a revered Oracle (Juliet Stevenson). Others in the cast include Sarah Parish, Aiysha Hart, and Jemima Rooper.
BBC announced the show’s cancellation this way: “The final seven episodes of Atlantis will transmit on BBC One in spring. We would like to thank Urban Myth Films and all the cast and crew but the series will not be re-commissioned. We are very proud of both series but to keep increasing the range of BBC One drama we have to make difficult decisions to bring new shows through.”
Six of the 13 episodes of season two have aired so far in the US. No word on when they’ll be released here.

Unbelievable- I’m late in finding this show but love it and I am so disappointed there are only two seasons!!! How could they end it there!! There was so much more to do in the storyline!
I love this show and was sadly disappointed that it ended after season 2 and that there will be no further continuation of this magical story.
This is complete poo I think BBC should take its head out of its rear end and continue the show. Not everything can be doctor who…
Atlantis I Miss you please came back as season 3 … ❤️
I’m wanting to see season 3-6 at least. I love the program and want to see more of it. Please make more of this program
Seriously? What a cruddy way to end it! I need closure!
I agree with all the fans. I was expecting an ending for this show. I loved watching the show, because it was built on popular myths that are out there. Anyway I think there are certain truth regarding most myths. I get pleasure fantasizing some ending to the myths.
