908. Use Italics for Titles of Movies, Plays, and Television Shows

Always italicize the title of a movie.

I enjoyed watching Frozen with my nieces.

Also italicize the title of a play.
Our school did a performance of My Fair Lady last spring.
Shakespeare’s comedy As You Like It had all of us in stitches.

Titles of television shows must be italicized.
We watch Wheel of Fortune every night.
Father Knows Best is a classic old television show.

Be sure to italicize titles of movies, plays, and television shows.

Now it’s your turn. Which words in this sentence should be capitalized? My favorite movie is The Wizard of Oz. Did you figure it out? Good for you!
