Safe at Home (1985)
You're not the only one...
She was from Peoria, and she moved into Chicago to live with her brother who was a sportscaster and an ex-Chicago Bears football player. This was so she could go to a special high school of performing arts where I believe she played the cello. Her best friend (with the long curly red hair) lived in the same building and went to her school. I think she was a dancer and quite boy-crazy. Her brother had an old football pal who was always hanging around who had probably been tackled a few too many times. The brother also had a girlfriend who I believe he eventually married. I can picture their apartment. Right now, that's what I remember about the show. You're right, all three shows just disappeared.
Down to Earth (1984)
A note to Traci B.
I remember it, too! I used to watch this show after school on SuperStation WTBS along with "Safe At Home" and "Rocky Road". I remember it pretty much as you described except that Dick Sargent was the second actor to play Richard Preston (just like he was the second Darrin on Bewitched -- did he ever originate a role?) I don't remember who was first except that he wore glasses. As I remember it, the part you didn't remember from the theme song was "Back down to earth To teach the Prestons, lessons -- Richard, Lyssy, Duane, and J.J., too! Now she must be a nineteen-eighties, lady....." I don't remember the rest either, but I really liked the show!
