My favorite one year wonders (i'm including dramas as well):

Me and The Boys (with Steve Harvey---funny thing is it was a top 10 hit)
Pride & Joy (starring Caroline Reah and Jeremy Piven)
Malibu Shores (starring Keri Russell pre-Felicity and Charisma Carpenter pre-Buffy)
Maybe It's Me (from the WB)
Regular Joe (with Daniel Stern and Jon Francis Dayl)
The Geena Davis Show (w/Geena Davis, Peter Horton and Jon Francis Dayl)
Commander In Chief (with Geena Davis and Donald Sutherland)
Off Center (with Eddie Kaye Thomas and Sean McGuire)
Freddie (with Freddie Prinze Jr and Brian Austin Green)
The Class (w/Jason Ritter)
LAX (with Heather Locklear)
Social Studies (w/Julia Duffy)
Hot Properties (w/Gail O'Grady, Nicole Sullivan and Evan Handler)
Young Americans ("Dawson's Creek" Spin-off)

and a few that lasted only two or three years:

Savannah
Models Inc
Just The Ten Of Us
Popular
Eli Stone
Pushing Daisises

I don't think Back To You would be considered a one year wonder! That was on for a full TV season. I thnk they mean shows like Do Not Disturb, The Winner, Un-Hitched and Return Of Jesebell James.

No a One year wonder is any show that was cancelled within it's first season or that did not last beyond one full tv season. so BTY is definetly a one year wonder.

They haven't offically cancelled Eli Stone yet, but they have opted not to pick up the show for it's back nine which is basically cancelling it. Same with Pushing Daisies and Dirty Sexy Money.

My favourite was the Ben Stiller Show.

No question about it, it was in many ways a forerunner to Married with Children
