Journeyman. God damn writer's strike of 2007! Wish Kevin McKidd was still on this than playing a doctor on Greys Anatomy. At least episode 13 had a very satisfying ending.

When I went to Hong Kong on vacation a few years ago, I actually found a bootleg DVD set of it for $2.50 and snagged it right away since it's never going to get a DVD release here in America.

The Chicago Code

Melrose Place 2.0

Sons of Thunder (aired on CBS in the late 1990's) -- Walker Texas Ranger spinoff

Terriers

Law and Order: Los Angeles

The Prisoner

Re: Best ONE Season Show ever ?
 

Day Break with Taye Diggs and Moon Bloodgood.

Cancelled after a few episodes, but all 13 eventually aired on the Internet and syndication. You can buy the complete series for like $5 on Amazon. Awesome 1 season show with a satisfying end.

'The Slap Maxwell Story'.
'Buffalo Bill'.

Re: Best ONE Season Show ever ?
 

Cincinatti? That's downstream from Pitsburg and south of Clevleand, right?

Re: Best ONE Season Show ever ?
 

And The Green Hornet. Fondly recall watching these back-to-back on ABC friday nights in 66/67.

There was a short lived, 17 episode spy show called Blue Light. Premiered same night as Batman on ABC in janurary 1966. Starred Robert Goulet as David Marsh, an american journalist similiar to O'Reilly, Limbaugh etc. Marsh is in Germany during WWII broadcasting german propaganda ala Tokyo Rose. He is the most hated man in america. Any allied soldier would gladly shoot him.
In reality he is an allied spy posing as a traitor to rub elbows with the Nazi hoi polloi.
His code name is "Blue Light". There were originally 13 blue light agents but the gestapo hunted down the other 12 and Marsh is the last.
A three part episode was edited together and released as a feature film. It's titled I Deal In Danger and available on DVD if curious.

Touching Evil (US) I think would also qualify, though I think it lost sight of itself midway through its one season run.

Re: Best ONE Season Show ever ?
 

Freaks and Geeks
Profit
Wonderfalls

Re: Best ONE Season Show ever ?
 

And of course a series that really needs to be remade Werewolf.

Re: Best ONE Season Show ever ?
 

Has to be Freaks and Geeks. A terrific series on its own, but it also launched (for better or worse) the Apatow era of comedy.

Re: Best ONE Season Show ever ?
 

Gotta go with Freaks and Geeks as well.

Re: Best ONE Season Show ever ?
 

:up: I know a lot of people didn't enjoy it and a lot of people resented it for taking Deadwood's spot, but I thought it was a great show.

Re: Best ONE Season Show ever ?
 

Wow, I had no idea. When I saw it when I was a kid, I assumed it was 100+ episodes.

Re: Best ONE Season Show ever ?
 

The Prisoner (1960s McGoohan version).

Re: Best ONE Season Show ever ?
 

Yeah, I totally gapped on the Prisoner.

Buffalo Bill was a good call too.

How about a talk show that really doesn't fit the spirit of the question, but was great? "Late World with Zach."

Re: Best ONE Season Show ever ?
 

Same for me.

Re: Best ONE Season Show ever ?
 

One season in its original run in '62-'63, but there was a second season in 1985 and a third in 1987, for a total of 75 episodes.

Re: Best ONE Season Show ever ?
 

Journeyman, Eli Stone and Studio 60 for me.

Re: Best ONE Season Show ever ?
 

Eli Stone lasted 2 seasons.

Re: Best ONE Season Show ever ?
 

I guess no one pays any attention to me.

Who's tony?






Sorry. ;)

Re: Best ONE Season Show ever ?
 

Suprised by the lack of mentions for The Comeback

One of the funniest shows of all time

Re: Best ONE Season Show ever ?
 

HE AND SHE with Richard Benjamin, Paula Prentice, Jack Cassidy, Kenneth Mars and Hamilton Camp.

Re: Best ONE Season Show ever ?
 

Oh, shit, I forgot about another one. Life on Mars (US). That was such an awesome show.

Re: Best ONE Season Show ever ?
 

Since most of my ideas have already been listed, I'll add one I haven't seen yet:

The Lone Gunmen
