Where There's a Thrill(ing List), There's a Play (on Words)

Where there's a will, there's a way.

One of those famous idioms that people use without even really thinking about it. And it's even become a fave phrase for estate planners too.

So I wondered about TV ep titles and how a writer might put his/her own spin on that famous quote. Here's a list (except direct uses of the idiom):
  • Where There's a Fool, There's a Phallus (''Seriously Funny,'' 2/11/1997)
  • Where There's a Way, There's a Will Stockdale (''No Time for Sergeants,'' 2/15/1965)
  • Where There's a Well, There's a Way (''DangerMouse,'' 12/4/1986)
  • Where There's a Will, There's a Creep (''Mighty Man and Yukk,'' 12/29/1979)
  • Where There's a Will, There's a Dani (''P.S. I Luv U,'' 12/7/1991)
  • Where There's a Will, There's a Goof (''Goof Troop,'' 11/12/1992)
  • Where There's a Will, There's a Tony (''Night Court,'' 5/1/1991)
  • Where There's a Will, There's a Waiver (''Yes, Dear,'' 1/8/2001)
  • Where There's a Will, There's a War (''M*A*S*H,'' 2/22/1982)
  • Where There's a Will, There's a Wave (''Summerland,'' 4/11/2005)
  • Where There's a Will, There's a Wife (''The Many Wives of Patrick,'' 7/1/1977)
  • Where There's a Will, There's a Won't (''Murphy's Law,'' 2/11/1989)
  • Where There's a Wilt, There's a Way (''Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends,'' 2/4/2005)
