The planned CW series based on DC Comics' King of Atlantis hit a reef.
The CW (the combo network formed from the WB and UPN) did not include Mercy Reef, the Aquaman TV series, in its 2006-2007 primetime schedule, according to Variety.
Developed by Smallville's Alfred Gough and Miles Millar was to have starred Justin Hartley in the title role as well as Denise Quinones and Ving Rhames.
