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?
It is a shame for all American, all tv series I watched always got cancelled, not just Atlantis, I can name it all. They can create a good story but never able to end it well.
Chinese tv series is far better than any other American tv series.
American tv series will be known as worst movie ever in movie history.
My entire family gathered together to watch this show. Was so Incredibly disappointed that it was let go. Please bring it back!!!!!
I really think that canceling the show with the Oracle seeing part of the future was unbelievable. I know it has been some years since the show ended but You should reconsider the future of the show. With it’s release on Hulu it has gained a lot of attention and a whole new fan base.
Very sad it ended so abruptly. Please reconsider!
very disappointing to be left hanging. makes me leary of starting to watch other BBC shows. please rethink your decision.
Thats a really exciting show. Canceling it makes me afraid to start watching any more bbc shows just to be left hanging
I am so disappointed that there’s no season three! Please reconsider. It’s honestly one of the best shows and most new shows are not good. This has everything in it- good story, action, adventure, romance, mystery etc… good actors … bring it back!!
Want a season 3
Great series
It was dumb to cancel
Very good show ,should not have been canceled
Absolutely crazy to cancel! Such a great show with amazing actors/actresses! Still hoping for season 3 !!
Loved the show and actors. Extremely disappointed that there is no season three. Great show. Please reconsider.
I think a third as on of Atlanis should be produced. It captured my interest and I found it very entertaining.
You guys are crazy for canceling. With a little bit more marketing you guys could have made this show really big I never heard about it until I came across it on Amazon prime and I love it I binge watched it And then I was unhappy to see it came out in 2015 and there are not be a third season. People like the magic and the sword fighting.you guys should have kept it up I think game of thrones took your spot.now would be the perfect time to come out with a season 3 and really market it… Read more »
Absolutely too abrupt of an ending !! Yes there should have been a season three ! It could at least been concluded a little better. We were left hanging. Very unfair to the viewers. Why did they decide to do it so abruptly ?
Makes me not want to watch any more series from BBC.
to bad it was cancelled, it was really good to watch
Very good show. It should have continued.
