I am the housekeeping ninja. I’m also the grammar Nazi. You don’t need a comma when you’re using quotation marks to indicate a title. The commas are generally only needed when you are quoting something that was said. So: “The City on the Edge of Forever” _Star Trek_ Unless you’re writing something like: “What’s your favorite Star Trek episode?” Little Nemo asked. “The City on the Edge of Forever,” Elendil’s Heir replied. ---
