Okay, we have notes, ChatGPT. Four words is not a short title. It is, if anything, above average length. Pull your socks up, if you want AI to steal everyone's jobs.

So, asking Wikipedia for sitcoms, and hand-picking one-word titles, here's what you missed:

Abby

Airwaves

Alice

Amen

Angelo's

Animals

Awkward

Babes

Back

Badults

Barbara

Beast

Becker

Bedsitcom

Bedtime

Benidorm

Benson

Bette

Beulah

Bewitched

Billy

Birdgirl

Bizaardvark

Blessed

Bloomers

Blossom....

Oh god, we ended up wasting a human's time after all, didn't we?
