Atlantis High is a teen comedy melodrama television series, [3] filmed in New Zealand, that aired on Channel 5 in the United Kingdom from September 2001 to March 2002. Atlantis High both parodies soap operas and pays homage to spoof television. [1]
The series revolves around 16-year-old Giles Gordon ( Michael Wesley-Smith), who has just moved to Sunset Cove, "a beautiful coastal surfing town where the sun is always shining, the people are all beautiful and everything is perfect... or so it seems". [4] He enrolls in Atlantis High School, where he soon discovers that Sunset Cove is unlike any town he has ever seen: populated by double-agents, aliens and high school students with blue hair and pointy ears, its inhabitants are eccentric lunatics who at times turn into superheroes or other whimsical figures.
Atlantis High was produced by Cloud 9 Screen Entertainment, a British-owned company based in New Zealand. [2] Production on the series began in 2000 in Wellington, New Zealand. [5]
The series was commissioned, originally for 52 half-hour episodes, for broadcast in 2001 by Channel 5 in the United Kingdom. [1] Despite being filmed in New Zealand, the show was never aired on New Zealand's TV3. [2]
...Atlantis High, a spoof high school soap, was also commissioned by Channel 5 for 52 half-hour episodes.
And Wellington-based Cloud 9 continued to successfully market The Tribe overseas and put a new teenage show, Atlantis High, into production.
