The entertainment value of the premise here – the protagonist's initial time displacement, and eventual return back in time to Atlantis is rather good, but its implementation, i.e. the actual show is rather awful: the writing is awful, the sets and special effects are awful, the actors are lacking even a glimmer of charisma or ensemble chemistry, and the whole thing ends up rather unimaginative and uninspired, - flawed in a worst manner because it is so boring! The plot tries to go through the customary ‘motions’, but without providing for any internal logical reasons or motives. Those plot gyrations from episode to episode are rather tedious and meaningless, thus they feel empty and unnecessary: one can watch the first episode of the season #1 and the last episode of the season #2, and not miss anything by cutting out all that gaaarhrhrhbaage in the middle… Naturally, with such awful two seasons, they managed to not even start on the actual story of Jason and the Argonauts and the Golden Fleece – I guess it was planned for the season #3, which was unceremoniously cancelled, as this show is so undeserving.
However, if anyone reading this is connected to a film industry – well, the conceptual premise has a tremendous promise that was not fulfilled by this drivel of a show. However, if done right from a scratch, such a show can become BIG, BIGGLY BIG! It just needs some properly good writing, good ensemble actors who actually ‘click’ with each other so that their acting is not wooden but believable. It would also need some more inspired designs, good camera work – you know, all the usual ingredients of a successful show…
Cheers!
