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?
We need the season three, it’s not fair to leave us hanging like that pliiiiiiz
Please bring the atlantis back!
Seriously are you joking dont you? Pliz waiting for season 3
I think that you have to bring Atlantis back, you have set up the plot perfectly and to end it the way that you did… it would be a crime to not give satisfaction to the watchers of the show. At least make a season three and resolve the conflict then make that the series finale. But to set up the golden fleece quest and not follow through on it is not ok. I loved watching this show and I am very disappointed by the fact that the show was canceled the way that it was after 2 seasons.
Or at least make a movie to give the viewers a satisfying ending.
Please bring Atlantis back, or some other network pick it up please. I love this show.
Please season 3 is a MUST!
I can’t believe you have decided not to do season 3! In that case you should have ended season 2 with Jason marriage to his true love and them ruling over Atlantis.
How
The show ended in 2015. Why so many comments 2 years later.?
I recently became a Jack Donnelly fan after watching him in the Hallmark movie “A Royal Winter”. I love his acting style….he’s adorable and fun to watch. I started looking into other things he’s done. Atlantis, of course, was the other big thing. So I decided to watch it. I was instantly hooked, binge watching on Hulu. What an amazing show on a number of different levels. I just finished the last episode of season 2. Sooooooo bummed that it was a cliff hangar for season 3!!!!! I agree with a previous comment…they should make one last show to bring… Read more »
If it was going to end on season 2 then Pasiphae should have been left dead and end with Jason on the throne not mention the golden fleece
Yes it should be continued , don’t leave us on a cliff hanger with Pasiphae undefeated
there should be a third season/////please
I knew they should have removed the queen’s head instead of just stabbing her. When you think of all that she had done to Atlantis, it’s weird that they didn’t cut her head off. Maybe this just wasn’t done back then.
Atlantis can’t finish like that please I want to see a third season
I can’t wait for the season 3 please make the season 3
I love this show hate that you all have cancelled it very good show
please bring out season 3. loved it. want to see the ending this show is magnificent
