Does any true Lucy devotee know in which seasons the back wall of the living room has a window, and which seasons that same back wall has no window? I'm sure this was done to create
more plot lines...but when, exactly did the change occur?

I'm referring to "I Love Lucy." There are some later episodes where there is a window on the back wall of the living room. In fact, there are several episodes in which Lucy goes out on the ledge, including the "Superman" episode. In earlier episodes, there is no window there, only a wall, and frequently a piano.
I'm curious as to when the window became a regular part of the scenery.

Probably when they moved to a 'better' apt. On the pilot episode there were basically no windows anywhere!

No, it's the same apartment, but in later seasons of "I Love Lucy" there is that window present, seemingly out of nowhere. I'm sure, as I said earlier, that it was a ploy by the writers for more plotlines.

Unmarried*happy was right, Lucy and Ricky moved in to a different apartment in the second season, soon after Little Ricky was born. It's episode #61, "The Ricardos Change Apartments."

AHA! I knew someone would have the definitive answer.
The 2 apartments were very similar. Besides the window/wall
thing, was anything else different between the 2 apartments?

The new apartment had a nursery. (That was the main reason they moved!) That's all the differences I can think of.... anyone else got any?
