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’m boiling mad with bbc. i know they don’t give a dam about me being mad but, dam, what kind of stupid closure to the series was that…
I’m seriously mad at BBC for not bring back Atlantis season 3
MAKE A NEW SEASON
We really need season 3 of this series. It is one of the best I’ve ever seen. Please
Please continue this series has been entertaining, trilling and wonderful for me and all my kids too love this series we mostly sit down and watch the suspense and the action is captivating so why stop? We love the show..
Please continue the series, give us an ending!! Loved the show!!
This movie is great please I will happy if there is a good ending. (Atlantis season 3)
It was really good why would u cancel it..Ugh that mess up.. I need to know the ending too.. Really like how it was written.
I loved the series and hate it ending without an ending
They keep canceling shows Like Atlantis that are Great and have a Historical kinda of feel of Ancient times. to put on shows that are of no interest or that has Gay crap in it. I really get sick of it. I feel their neck ties are to tight, as it is cutting the Oxygen off to their Brains.
I don’t think they should have cancelled Atlantis . It was such an entertaining show. I don’t understand why they do this without giving it an end. It’s shameful
I really enjoyed this series!!! Was just heartbroken and disgusted with BBC for cancelling it especially without giving it a proper ending!! Especially when the end of season 2 set up such a great plot for season 3. Maybe Netflix will pick it up…? We can only hope.
This show should have continued. I watched the whole series and was disappointed with no true ending for our heros
It was a very good show and it saddens me that I got so far into it just to find out that I’ll never see the end.
Pls, i need to know the ending
