This is ridiculous, but I remember about 20 or 25 years ago a short-lived sitcom that was on TBS, I believe. I had thought John Tesh was on it, but I couldn't find any listing of that, but there were 2 kids, boy and a girl. The girl's name was Lissie, and I want to know who played that character. The lady character's name, whom it seemed was the kids' father's girlfriend, might have been Tatem. Any clue? And finally does anyone remember Deidra Hall and her twin sister in 'Dyna Twins'?! I finally remembered the name of that show.

I found a Tatum character in a TBS sitcom. Was it Safe at Home?

Oh my gosh! I believe that is it! I haven't checked your link yet, but I will---thanks! I hate when something gets on your mind (for years) and you can't remember. Guess this is what I have to look forward to when I get old, er. Thanks!

I don't remember that but I do know that in the 70's Deidre Hall was in a Saturday morning show called "Electra Woman and Dyna Girl" Judy Strangis(Room 222) played Dyna Girl.

Also, Deidre's twin sister Andrea was on "Days of our Lives" at one time. I think Andrea played her sort of evil twin.That was way back in the 70's too.

[found] 12/85 WTBS “Safe at Home” promo. (https://www.reddit.com/r/lostmedia/comments/zxp5ia/found_1285_wtbs_safe_at_home_promo/)

Fast forward to the 30:11 mark:

Theme to "Safe At Home", TBS sitcom from (1985) that ran for three years, yet so far this is the only online footage of its existance (https://www.reddit.com/r/ObscureMedia/comments/qyhpng/theme_to_safe_at_home_tbs_sitcom_from_1985_that/)

Safe at Home (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0090513/) is another 1980s Superstation TBS (https://www.nytimes.com/1985/06/10/arts/tv-review-a-look-at-2-sitcoms-at-ted-turner-s-wtbs.html) sitcom that is so obscure, it's extremely hard to believe it ever existed at all. First and foremost, the series has never seen any reruns, streaming or DVD releases, torrent releases, nothing. Unlike a similar show, Down to Earth, this show doesn't even have any of its episodes released on YouTube, not even its theme song can be found anywhere. It's especially rather surprising that this show is obscure, considering Richard Steven Horvitz (https://www.richardhorvitz.com/blog/my-story) played one of the characters. The only trace of this series to be found anywhere is on Wikipedia (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Safe_at_Home_(TV_series)#:~:text=Safe%20at%20Home%20is%20an,to%20Earth%20and%20Rocky%20Road.), where you'll find that the show is so obscure, no one knows what year it ended.
