What are three generic plays that Shakespeare wrote?

Very few of Shakespeare's plays could be described as "generic", as he was always pushing boundaries and exploring new aspects of the form. Some of his early work might be considered to be generic, especially The Comedy of Errors, which is clearly in the style of (and based on a play by) Plautus. Titus Andronicus might be thought of as a generic revenge tragedy after the style of Kyd's Spanish Tragedy. If Shakespeare wrote Edward III, it is a fairly generic chronicle history play.
