What situation comedy produced the most episodes for one season?
I was just reading a few weeks ago that during season 2 of One Day At A Time they ran with 39 episodes.Was there any show that had more?

The episodes from Season 1 + the episodes from Season 2 would equal 39, so perhaps you misread or perhaps the person writing the piece was misinformed.

The Beverly Hillbillies produced 36 episodes a year for the first 2 seasons. Hard to top that one, I'll bet.
(edit) Bewitched also produced 36 new episodes in each of its first 2 seasons, plus added 2 clip show specials in season 2.
(edit) Petticoat Junction produced 38 episodes in its first season.
(edit) The Donna Reed Show produced 37 eps in S1, 38 each in S2 & 3, and 39 in S4
(edit) Depending on your definition of comedy, Batman produced 60 new episodes in its second season.

I was going to mention Batman but the show is hard to define and it was on twice a week.

That's 54 more episodes than the entire Seinfeld 9-year run.
In 1966-1967 Batman aired two episodes a week for 30 consecutive weeks, a total of 60 episodes in it's second season. You can debate whether or not it's a sitcom, but regardless, that's a lot of episodes.
