From memory, I think you're right. It was Patty's family, after all. and Patty was the eponymous character. It was supposed to be about two cousins but it was really about Patty and her family and friends, which included Cathy.I will say, from what I have recently watched of the original show, the episodes seem more Patty oriented, but I haven't watched much. I know it was only on for 3 seasons, but back then they had more episodes than a prime-time soap in the 80's, so I still have a lot to get through. Just from what I've seen so far, they seem to center more around Patty.
