I remember that Jason Batemen was in It's Your Move and it was an American sitcom about a teenage boy waging a psychological war against his mother's new husband - his stepdad.
Batemen and his stepfather would spend each episode trying to catch each other out and make one another look bad to the mother. I think it only ran for a couple of series but it was pretty funny.
