  • 7 - Team Atlantis (Atlantis: The Lost Empire TV Series) - Part 1

    This Week on Best TV Never Made, co-hosts Ryan Matsunaga (director of marketing, BOOM Studios) and Peter Holmstrom (author, The Center Seat: 55 Years of Trek) are joined by screenwriters Henry Gilroy (Star Wars: The Clone Wars, Star Wars: Rebels) and Steven Melching (X-Men the Animated Series, Star Wars: The Clone Wars) to discuss the 30+ episode unseen TV follow-up to the cult Disney animated classic, Atlantis: The Lost Empire -- Team Atlantis. This follow-up series would have seen the intrepid team from the film lead by Milo Thatch thwarting all manner of supernatural phenomenon of the time, from Aliens to Yeti, and even a cross-over with the Gargoyles TV series.

    Ultimately, Disney elected not to proceed with the project, despite many episodes being produced, and even more far along in the pipeline. Find out why, and more behind the scenes insights on what might have been a whole new direction for Disney animation, on this week's episode of BEST TV NEVER MADE.
