Looking for the name of an obscure tv show that probably aired sometime in the 80's or early 90's. It centered around a girl with maybe 4 older brothers and her father. Don't really remember much else about the show. It could have been on cable or network tv.

Anything else?

I want to say "Star Of The Family" from 1982, but I don't think that's it.

I really don't remember too much about it. I have a very vague memory of who played the girl and the dad. I think she was sort of a tomboy and she had to deal with "girl problems", etc. and the mom wasn't in the picture (don't remember why). But other than that, I got nothin. It's driving me pretty crazy because no one knows what I'm talking about and I really can't remember too much.

That's not it but thanks anyway. I think 82 is a little too early.

Was it the Torkelsons, or something like that?

In the Torkelsons they had a mother.

Could be Blossom, but she only had two brothers and a father... it started in either 90 or 91...

There was a show called "Family Man" which starred Gregory Harrison as a single Dad with a few sons and a daughter.

I know what show you're talking about....the name just isn't popping in my head...

You're right.

Thanks everybody but I happened by pure luck to stumble across an actor on IMDB that was on the show. It was a cable show called Ready or Not that aired on HBO or Showtime starting in 93 and lasted for 5 seasons. It was like a Degrassi kind of show. Funny thing is that I would have bet anything that it didn't make it past its first season from what I remembered of it (which wasn't much).

It was quite similar to Degrassi. In Canada, we have three broadcasters, CBC & CTV (both around since the 50s) and the upstart Global, which is the equivalent of Fox. Ready or Not, if I'm correct, was one of Global's first entertainment programs and was moderately successful as a more PG version of Degrassi. I do remember it running for a few seasons and just last year I saw a repeat on some channel here.
