<!-- EDIT TEMPLATE DOCUMENTATION BELOW THIS LINE -->

{{tl|Cite episode}} is for citing television or radio programs and episodes. The only required field is '''title'''. While it is principally designed and documented for serial, episodic broadcasts, an example is provided below of adaptation to a sporting event broadcast.

==Usage==
All fields '''must''' be in lowercase. The only required field is "title". Copy a blank version to use:
