I've heard of an ABC sitcom by the same name that debuted in 1994, but I don't recall the one you've described. Then again, it was a bit before my time.

Yes, and I have one episode of that show.
I was living in the New York area at the time
(and the show was shot in New York City).
I saw one episode taped and got to meet
Bess Armstrong and got an autograph after the
show. The other cast members were not as cordial
(most didn't come out at all to meet the audience),
Dixie Carter and Lynnie Greene the most notable.

I have most of them from Beta. It was shot in NY, rare for that era.
