TV show description:
In this fantasy TV series, Jason (Jack Donnelly) is a young man whose father disappeared years ago when he was a child. He pilots a one-man submarine to investigate a deep sea disturbance. When he gets close, the sub fails, he’s pulled into a white light, and Jason ends up on the shores of the ancient fabled kingdom of Atlantis.
A magical place filled with legendary creatures, secrets and deceit, Atlantis is ruled by traditional King Minos (Alexander Siddig) and his manipulative wife, Queen Pasiphae (Sarah Parish).
He’s befriended by a pair of unlucky locals — an overweight, hard-drinking former prize fighter named Hercules (Mark Addy) and Pythagoras (Robert Emms), an intellectual who’s very fond of triangles. The three encounter monsters, gods and demigods, as they live the Greek myths and battle to do good and protect the innocent.
Before long, Jason catches the eye and heart of the beautiful Ariadne, the princess of Atlantis whose family and royal standing restricts who she may love. This brings the young man face-to-face with the treachery of Queen Pasiphae.
Thankfully, Jason finds guidance and protection with the revered Oracle (Juliet Stevenson). He learns that Oracle was expecting him. It’s no mistake that he found the shores of the famed city -– it was fate.
Episode #25 — The Queen Must Die: Part Two
As Jason and Ariadne prepare to return to power in Atlantis, they must decide who they can trust. Anxieties run high as our heroes form new alliances with old enemies while questioning those they love. As they enter the city for the first time since Pasiphae’s death, only one thing is certain — nothing will ever be the same again.
First aired: August 8, 2015.
What do you think? Do you like the Atlantis TV show? Do you think it should have been cancelled or renewed for a third season?
Yes please bring it back. The cw would be a great place to have it. The scenery and acting were great
I loved it!!! Wish I could see more. Bring it back!!
I enjoy watching Atlantis, I want it to continue and not be canceled.
Please renew Atlantis…my whole family was disappointed when the show was cancelled…. We’ve been waiting for years now!
Can you please continue this film
Both my husband & I have enjoyed watching the series, Please bring it back as the show has a lot more to offer in seeing it growing & lot more is to be done, it is left up in the air, audience & fans as myself need to see the outcome. This is a disappointment when fans are excited to see the next outcome & what the show can bring to it’s fans. Fans like myself need a conclusion. WHAT A DISAPPOITMENT. WAS LOOKING FORWARD TO THE NEXT EPISODE.
Seems like everytime I like a show it disappears. Please bring it back
I have been waiting two years for season three yet its cancelled, this is so unfair 🙁
Edward Feltus really mis this show! I was so looking for more episodes.
This was a simply outstanding show, I was absolutely glued to the television and couldn’t wait for the next episode. This was one of the top shows that has ever been on in my opinion and I cannot believe that it was cancelled! I was gutted! I have bought the small box set so I can watch it over again. Programs like this shouldn’t be cancelled after such a short time and the people who decide whether or not to cancel them need to think about their viewers a bit more because without us they wouldn’t even have a job!
Renewed!
please bring back atlantis
Why would you cancel this?? PLEASE DON’T, this has been the best I’ve seen in a very long time. PLEASE KEEP IT GOING!!
Please don’t cancel this show. I vote NO…DON’T CANCEL THIS SHOW…PLEASE.
I have recently started watching this show with my husband every night. After looking it up online, I was very annoyed to find out that you did not bother to finish the series. It seems to me that you should have some idea how this will end, by the way the book is written. Yet the writers have run out of steam. Please bring this back and finish the story for us.
pease renew…
