Two stages seemed to be common, even on cheap color sets (CTC-20!). Did tubes get that good, or did set makers get that cheap?
I think Muntz had a 1 stage video IF portable in the late 50s early 60s...In their case it was cheapness, but in late 60s sets fewer IFs were typically because better gain tubes were being used.
