Two Guys and a Girl
A Boston pizza place the series was named after for two seasons and then quietly dropped from the title.
Two Guys and a Girl rebuilt its titles: two distinct opening sequences are catalogued here across seasons 1, 3 and 4, running between 12 and 21 seconds.
At 21 seconds at its longest, it opens well under the 38-second median for comedy sequences in this catalogue.
It arrived on ABC in 1998, when One Life to Live, All My Children and The Bugs Bunny Show were also on the network.
Only 139 of the 2,618 shows catalogued here changed their titles at all; Two Guys and a Girl did so once.
