Synopsis
Love is in the air when Principal Seymour Skinner and Edna Krabappel are finally getting married. They each have their bachelor party, with Mrs. Krabappel having hers at the Simpson house with Duffman and a topless Chief Wiggum as strippers, and Principal Skinner having his at Moe's with Homer. However, at his party, Skinner admits that he has doubts about marrying Mrs. Krabappel. When the wedding is held at Springfield Elementary's gymnasium, she learns that Skinner does not want to marry her, and runs away from the ceremony. The wedding is called off.
After it is called off, Homer and Marge try to get Skinner and Krabappel to be engaged again, but it is halted by Homer and Marge's own marriage problems. Mrs. Krabappel returns a wedding gift to the Comic Book Guy, and she finds him to be an interesting man. Homer gets Skinner to serenade Krabappel using a band made up of Bart, Milhouse, and Martin, but that fails when he learns that the Comic Book Guy and Krabappel are in love. The family visits the Bi-Mon-Sci-Fi-Con to confront Comic Book Guy, who proposes to marry Krabappel after the family sees Futurama creator Matt Groening. Skinner, dressed up as Catwoman, battles the Comic Book Guy. In the end, Krabappel interrupts their fight to declare that she has no interest in either man.
Trivia
After Bart, his friends, and Skinner sing their song, a superman tattoo can be seen on Comic Book Guy's butt when he turns around.;
One interesting note is that it states Futurama is a fictional series in the Simpsons universe. Previously, it had been stated that The Simpsons is a fictional series in Futurama's world, when Bender finds a large stack of Bart Simpson dolls on a giant meteorite made of trash. Also, there have been two crossover stories between the series in comic form - however, these seem to exist in separate continuities This creates a rather interesting double negative.;
When Groundskeeper Willie is mowing the lawn and drives over the ball Nelson kicked, he is clearly whistling the theme song of Lord of the Rings;
The wedding altar in Multi-Purpose Room B is adorned with four consonants out of the Klingon writing system pIqaD. When transliterated into romanized Klingon they read l, ng, v and w in that order from left to right. The word lngvw is not recognized by the Klingon Language Institute.;
Cultural references
The title is a play on My Big Fat Greek Wedding.;
At one point in the episode, Barney speaks to an imaginary life-sized rabbit, a likely reference to the Mary Chase play Harvey, and the movie Donnie Darko.;
The song that Bart, his friends, and Seymour Skinner sing to try to win Edna's heart back is a parody of Solomon Linda/The Tokens' hit The Lion Sleeps Tonight.;
