If you take the bad part of the epic series "Merlin" and the good part of the series "Hercules" with Kevin Sorbo, you get exactly what this series is all about. I actually like it. The visual (clothing, ambient) is very good, the acting is not that bad. The story is typically "easy entertainment". I actually like the idea of showing classic Greek characters in a totally different way then you would expect them. This makes the show kind of funny. if this show is to be continued, I surely will follow it and watch each episode until the end. Atlantis definitely does not reach the status and quality of Merlin but still it is a nice, entertaining show worth watching.
