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?
I had just found out about this show n i love it please come back i need to see more
I really liked Atlantis and to find out it was cancelled annoyed me as it was left on a cliff hanger, which to a tvaholic is extremely annoying. I think it should be renewed for season 3, even if just to finish the untold storyline.
atlantis very good fılm why cancelled ı love thıs fılm
Loves this show – I would like to see it continue or at lease it’s rights sold to another company. America will love this one to be continued – it is family friendly & plays with history. Well written & tasteful. Please do not cancel it.
I love BBC and I really enjoyed Atlantis. I’m late to all of the shows but that just means that I am the queen of binge watching.
Take heart Atlantis cast/crew so many great shows have gone the way of the gods. Perhaps they’ll resurrect you yet :).
I was completely glued to this show. Please bring the show back. I had great anticipation for season three.
The series is just too interesting for not to continue…Can’t wait…..Please bring it on
I can’t believe you are cancelling this show, my family has been so glued to Atlantis that I’m wondering what I’ll say to them about the 3rd Season. Please bring Season 3
google all the shows that were uncancelled. Atlantis should be brought back. It is quite evident it had a large viewing base
Please continue the series..its really awesome..enjoyed it a lot..can’t wait to see whats happening next.
I really enjoyed the show very much.i am very disappointed to hear that theres no 3rd season plz continue it.its really awesome..enjoyed that a lot.plz think about 3rd season
We all need season 3, Please! I am beging you.
I’m very disappointed at no season 3. The show was lighthearted and had the same feeling as Merlin, which I absolutely loved. Now I’ll never know what happened. I hate this current wave of shows being cancelled before conclusion. Unless it’s an absolute flop, those who produce and air it should commit to completing it. This makes me not want to watch a series until it comes, completed, to Netflix. At least then I know I can see the full story. It wasn’t the heaviest drama, but I was drawn into the story. I discovered the show on Hulu streaming… Read more »
