80's Sit Com

[brachiopod]

Does anyone remember the name of this eighties sitcom?

Main character was a cartoonist, who worked from home, and always drew with the aid of his dog-like (I think it was dog-like?) hand-puppet. Usual "hilarious" situations ensue with agent / daughter / wife etc.

This is not a quiz or anything, I just thought I saw the main actor from this programme in something else recently. I can't even check IMDb as I can't remember the name of the sit com.

Can anyone help?
