The title of a television series or a stand-alone TV special should be italicized, along the lines of a book or a theatrical-release film. The title of one episode of a series should be surrounded by quotation marks, similar to a magazine article, a short story, or a poem.

∙ 15y agoYou would either underline the title of a TV series or put it in italics. If you are naming a specific episode of a TV series, however, you would put that title in quotations.
Example: I watched the X-Files episode "Quagmire."

Are you talking about writing the equivalent of a screenplay for a television program? I would use as little punctuation as possible. You'll go crazy trying to formalize the language so that your sixth grade teacher would approve. List the character's name, and write the dialogue under the name with the minimum punctuation necessary to get the line across as you intend it. This is not literature in a form that is meant to be read; it is meant to be performed.

You can follow the format -- assuming that by 'television episode, you mean a script for one -- used in the industry. What's important is that your script:
- contain zero spelling errors
- names characters consistently
- names scene settings consistently
- write only what can be seen in your action areas
- Start sentences with capital letters; end them with periods or ellipsis (if you don't complete the sentence).

Quote from the Related Link: "Technically, the titles of movies and television shows should be italicized, because individual scenes and episodes may have their own titles, which would be enclosed in quotation marks. The influence of newspaper reviewers, however, has undermined this principle, so you are likely to find the titles of movies and television shows enclosed in quotation marks." No you don't have to. You put parentheses around it. Like this: "Night Of The Living Dead." Certain letters get capitalized too.
