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.
What do you think? Do you like the Atlantis TV show? Do you think that it should have been cancelled or renewed for a third season?
They definitely should have renewed fir a 3rd season…so upset right now!
Agreed
Atlantis is one of the best tv serious I’ve seen so far.We’re all waiting for season 3 to start all over again
I LOVE Atlatis!!! Why did you CANCEL it??? ☹️
BBC Did you really drop the show Atlantis I thoughe it was really great
I am so disheartened there will be no season 3 of Atlantis. What a great show to bring to life. Comical, clean, and such a great mystery for the imagination brought to screen.
Yes it is very bad to just drop a show leaving everything up in the air like that I would have loved to have seen where this show came to an end
The Atlantis series should be continued to the end of the 3rd series. With the golden fleece myth included. Otherwise the end of the 2nd series is too disoriented.
i just finish season2 and come find season3 there will be no season3 ?(F)
