There was a time when you weren't allowed to show a bed for two on TV in the USA.

O shit was that one joke at the beginning of wandavisiom when they were in the early sitcom and pushed the beds together?

It's also why Bert and Ernie had two beds.

Thankfully, they allowed Charlie Bucket's grandparents to have a bed for four.

Even for married couples. The Dick Van Dyke show was one example. Twin beds in the bedroom, separated by a nightstand.

When Mary Tyler Moore got her own show, they aired it before the Dick Van Dyke show, so no one would think they had gotten divorced.
