Since,"Beaver,"ran six years that means the show had 39 episodes per season.Boy,it sure has been a loooooong time since the average ammount of series episodes per season was 39.

Wow, I don't even think that its possible to make that many episodes of a series for one season anymore. Especially how high an episode costs to produce nowadays. Production budgets were much less back then, that's for sure. I think the least amount of episodes that are created today for one season ranges between 20 and 25.
