| Not to forget:
I never mechanism I didn't like - "I never met a man I didn't like". (Famous quote/remark by William Rogers.) The love bug - "The Love Bug", Disney movie : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Love_Bug. Not sure if that's the reference though. The Lost city of the sun - The lost city of the incas http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Machu_Picchu Maybe? And obviously Witch way did she go? - Which way did she go?  |

| "See No Evil, Hear No Evil, Speak No Evil" is also an ancient philosophy.
I also missed a few... Bad Mood Rising - Bad Moon Rising (song) Fowl Weather - Foul Weather Do The Rat Thing - Do The Right Thing Caught By The Tale - Caught By The Tail Armored And Dangerous - Armed And Dangerous Hero With a Thousand Feathers - Hero With a Thousand Faces (nonfiction book examining common themes in hero characters) While The City Snoozes - While The City Sleeps (50's movie) |

| Just wanted to point out that some of them could be referring not only to a similar title of a movie or TV show but to a common phrase or saying in English:
To Cure a thief - "It takes a thief to catch a thief." (I think Aladdin actually says this in When Chaos Comes Calling.) Never Say Nefir - "Never say never." (Basically means, never say something's impossible. I think there was a song in An American Tale called this...) Sea No Evil - "See no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil." Two to Tangle - "It takes two to tango."
Yup, but it was also a song. 
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strike_Up_The_Band_(song)
I think it was a play first, then a movie, then a TV series.
Really? I always thought it was referring to The Three Faces of Eve, because of Genie's "multiple personalities" in this ep. What's Seven Faces about? |

Except Holmes never said that; people only think he did. 
I thought most of those were pretty obvious overall... They're also missing a good chunk of 'em. Much Abu About Something - Much Ado About Something (Shakespeare play) Strike up the Sand - Strike up the Band (figure of speech?) Forget Me Lots - Forget-Me-Nots (flower) The Flawed Couple - The Odd Couple (TV series?) Rain of Terror - Reign of Terror Dune Quixote - Don Quixote (eponymous book character) Smolder and Wiser - Older and Wiser Power to the Parrot - Power to the People The Seven Faces of Genie - The Seven Faces of Dr. Lao (classic movie) A Clockworld Hero - A Clockwork Orange (book/movie) The Way We War - The Way We Were Night of the Living Mud - Night of the Living Dead (movie) Egg-stra Protection - Extra Protection Shark Treatment - Star Treatment (excuse me while I giggle about Al's Sneech phase in this episode) Sneeze the Day - Seize the Day The Prophet Motive - The Profit Motive That Stinking Feeling - That Sinking Feeling The Spice Is Right - The Price Is Right (gameshow) Sea No Evil - See No Evil Beast or Famine - Feast or Famine Vocal Hero - Local Hero |
