I though of this as an offshoot of the Favorite series thread. What shows, other than Firefly of course, did you love, but only lasted 1 season, or less.

Here's my list, for what it's worth:

Brimstone
The Adventures of Brisco County, JR
Space: Above and Beyond

Come to think of it... these were all Friday night shows on FOX, which were cancelled too soon.

Sounds familiar.

Greg The Bunny
The Tick
Jim Henson's Storyteller
and you can kinda count Forever Knight, since it got cancelled three times and each season ran independant of the last.

I didn't realize Space and Brisco County's runs were that brief.

How many seasons of The Prisoner were there?

Added: I checked IMDB and indeed, The Prisoner ran for only one season. It may have been planned that way from the start, but it still ranks as my second-fav one year wonder.

My favorite too-short series were:

Brimstone
Briscoe County Jr.
The Lone Gunmen

all Friday Night Fox shows.

Hell, Veritas only had what, four episodes aired?
