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?
Why would you want to cancel Atlantis? Just ffound this show and I love it. Every time y’all have good shows you always cancel them.. Bad move on yalls part. Bring back Atlantis!!

This was a show my teenage daughter and I enjoyed watching together. Not many shows out there we can say that about! We are both beyond disappointed!
we need to find whoever stop making Atlantis in BBC and get that person out. Kick his ass. Then make season 3.
Really disappointed that it been cancelled
I really enjoyed watching the series and very disappointed that it got cancelled. I wish you would bring it back.
please the suspense is so high, and u can’t leave us right here, send us further . try hard to bring us our joy.
La série n’est pas très diffusé en France mais c’est avec grand regret que j’apprend l’abandon. Il y aurai au moins du avoir une fin.
As I write this I see 763 comments. Maybe if we get enough comments they will bring it back. Maybe they are making season 3, but just trying to build it up first. Please oh please bring back Atlantis
