Atlantis

I have found Atlantis to be a very enjoyable piece of Saturday night entertainment. I am going under the impression that most of the hater reviews were written after the first episode. However i do not see it fit to base a show on just the begging, you wouldn't review a film after 1/12 the way through it. Yet, although the somewhat shaky start, i can fully say the show has massively improved in performance and storyline quality. After watching the full first series i can honestly say i was throughly impressed, it has nicely filled a gap left after the final season of Merlin. Finally, i hope it remains running and continues its good quality for many series to come.

I binged watch this amazing show. The first episode was very entertaining, I ended up watching the whole season with two days. I'm at work and watching this show. I slept late just to finish watching it. when I'm almost done with season 2 I found out the show Was cancelled. NOT COOL. They need to put season 3. I enjoyed watching it, it has humor, plenty of action. Love watching their relationship. It was very entertaining. Where do I petition for this show to return. Netflix need to take this show so I can keep watching it. Not liking BBC network for cancelling my show.

Frankly, I liked it a LOT! To enjoy this, you have to sit back and relax and not wait for something to criticize.

I think it has a lot of potential. There are funny scenes, action and suspense. An interesting spin on the Greek myths and I hope it continues.

The actors are quite good in my opinion. I was so excited for something to finally fill the gaping hole Merlin left and I feel this is the perfect solution.

I'm grateful for a series with a little culture and anyone who loves mythology in general will love this exciting new angle. I was not disappointed and can't wait for the next episode!

This show is actually a lot better than I thought it would be. Each episode is interesting and based on a different ancient Greek mythological legend. I don't really care if it's historically accurate because it's interesting and good entertainment. Besides it's nice to see a different take on each character. Who says Hercules couldn't be a fat lazy drunk. Sometimes a reputation can be born from one lucky moment but that doesn't mean that is who they truly were.

So give the show a chance if you enjoy fantasy shows with a historical edge. It may not be realistic but nobody really knows the truth for sure so maybe it could be true. It's also nice to see something that isn't so serious. I'm getting pretty bored with watching shows about terrorists and murderers. You can delve into a new world for an hour and forget about real world tragedies.

Firstly, Anyone who criticizes this series for bad dialogue, says it is a bad portrayal of Greek Mythology, or says the characters are bad and unrealistic. JUST ARE NOT GETTING IT.

This is really a fun parody of Greek Mythology, take Hercules (Mark Addy) who is an overweight womanising drunk who tells heroic stories of his deeds and they are all made up. Does this seriously sound like it should be taken seriously, I mean seriously (yes I used it three times) Mark Addy as Hercules.

Come on people enjoy the show for what it is and not what you expect it to be. To be honest I think the writers have really done a great job of making it such a light entertainment show, with touches of Mythology brought in for you to talk about.

I personally will be watching vividly and hoping the series runs for a few series. 9 out of 10 for taking me into a new world, and wonder what adventures Jason, Pythagoras and Hercules will get up to next.
