The Great Louse Detective. Why is this episode called that? Post the episode titles you would like to know why they are called that here.

Where's the Beef?
The Great Mouse Detective is a book with Louse substituted. The episode used to be about a head-lice epidemic and when they changed the plot they kept the title.

Why is "I'm Spelling as Fast as I Can" called so?

Not sure. I'd substitute the word "spelling" to give a famous quote.

Actually, I've realised that Season 14 has a lot of wordplay/puns about their titles...
How I Spent my Strummer Vacation (..Bummer Vacation)
Large Marge (Both words rhyme)
Helter Shelter (Skelter)
Special Edna (Special Ed.(ucation))
The Dad Whe Knew too Little (Man who knew too much)

What about: Alone Again, Natura-Diddlily?

It's like the book or song or movie or something called "Alone Again, Naturally," with the obligatory Flanderism.

Most episodes are actually play on words, so all it takes is for a little intelligence to work out where they're from.

So does this mean we should hug Apu again?
My question is this: Supercalafragalisticexpiala (Annoyed Grunt) sious?
What's that about? And what color is the sky? Kidding of course...
What about "I am furious yellow?" I don't know where that comes from.

Supercala... is a famous song from the movie Mary Poppins, which this episode parodies.
I Am Furious (Yellow) is a take on the movie title I Am Curious (Yellow).

Supercalifragilisticexpialadocious is the full word from the Mary Poppins song. The episode title was actually "Simpsoncalifragilisticexpiala(ANNOYED GRUNT)cious." Annoyed grunt, meaning D'oh, is substituted for the 'doh' sound.MaxpowerAK79 said:

Worst titles ever:
How do you pronounce "Grift of the Magi" and "New Kids on the Blecch?"

Magi: MADJ-eye
Blecch: BLEK
Why are they the worst titles ever? They both make perfect sense within the context of the episode.

I wasn't saying they were the worst, but if I couldn't pronounce them, I'm hardly likely to think much of them. When I first read Grift of the Magi's title, I thought it was a typo for Maggie. :-/

And where does "SKinner's Sense of Snow" come from?

I've found out that "HOM'R" (The R Is Backwards) comes from the movie "CHA'R'LIE" (The R Is Also Backwards)
