I don’t even want to see the title of an It’s Always Sunny episode before the cold opening.

Titles don't usually spoil too much. At least the writers expect you to see them.

A lot of translated titles contain slight spoilers though, for example "predestination" becomes "time paradox" in Korean, it immediately gives you a hint of some part of the twist.

At least with Always Sunny the title is usually the punchline to a joke they set up in the cold open and then drop the title card.

Dee: "No that's a bad idea. Usually when you get involved somebody gets hurt."

Frank: "That's ridiculous. I'm just paling around with the guys. How is anybody going to get hurt?"

Title Card: "Frank Sets Sweet Dee on Fire"
