When you hear the phrase form ("Person) and the (x)" what does it bring to mind?

Freebie and the Bean

Good to know I have allies in this Battle Royale. :slight_smile:

This was my first thought as well — for real!

Great minds? :thinking:

Fascinating thread. I thought of Beauty and the Beast and thought that everyone else would think of it, too. Apparently I was very, very wrong, seeing as how CairoCarol is the only person who even mentioned it.

From the Oxford English Dictionary:

second childhood; plural noun: second childhoods

a period in someone’s adult life when they act as a child, either for fun or as a consequence of reduced mental capabilities.

Late to the game but also first thing I thought of.

The novelizations of the original run of Doctor Who were all called “Doctor Who and the (title of the serial).” Only one serial actually had that one of those as the title when broadcast, Doctor Who and the Silurians, which might have been titled like that because the director was new to the show and didn’t understand the title formatting.

Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day

I think of a band name for both singular and plural words or short phrases (“Trump and the Deficit”, “Marino and the Wide Receivers”). For phrases longer than 2 words, it’s Harry Potter.
