"Fredless" is the example I've seen before.
That's the one ep of S3 I haven't seen yet, and even having read synopses, I can't figure out what the title gives away. Other than that it's an ep about Fred.

I can't think of any plot-spoilery ep titles at all.
They're only spoilery in that hindsighty sort of way. Like Chosen or Potential.

Right. So unless Angel 5.1 is called "Hey! Gunn really IS a Giant Panther!", I think posting episode titles in the main thread is okay.

Only that they lose Fred for part of the ep. (I think -- haven't rewatched it since it was 1st broadcast.) Which was probably in the promo anyhow.
Really, the *most* you could get from most ME ep titles is possibly the main character (or an important guest star) or setting, which are normally in the promos anyhow. I can't get anything plotty at all from knowing the writer(s), other than knowing the tone the writer typically takes.
What is our policy now?
Some of the Angel season 3 titles hinted. Dad and Lullabye come to mind.
What would you like the policy to be?

I agree.
Our official spoiler policy is that episode titles are spoilery. And frankly, I'm in the Spoiler thread anyway, so I'm not impeded from getting the info. But still. Explain to me how you would have known ahead of time what "Shiny Happy People" was about.
Well, the tendency seems to be toward broadening the definition of "unspoiled".
I would ask that we whitefont titles.
