Anyone familier with MLA format?

[suziebee20]

I have searched and searched and can't seem to find any guides to help me cite this website:

http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/nova/lostempires/trebuchet/castle.html

I found a few sites with good examples, but it's so confusing. I didn't see an "author" so I wasn't sure if I was supposed to put PBS or leabe it blank, or if I use the guys name who is being interviewed. Then I got all confused about how to cite it as an iterview. Aggghhh it's starting to drive me nuts just like last years research project did. At least this one is only 2 pages double spaced!! Any help is appriciated.

You should use this format:
WORLD WIDE WEB (SECONDARY PAGE)

Basic Form

Name of author or creator, if available. "Title of topic or article" (if given). Title of page (if named). Name
of any institution or organization associated with the site. Latest update (if given). Access date
<URL>.

Example

Anderson, Greg. "Can the Trooper and SLX Stand Up?" Edmunds.com. Retrieved 12 Mar. 2001

Yours would be
"Life in a Castle." PBS.com. Updated Nov. 2000. Retrieved 12 Mar 2004 <http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/nova/lostempires/trebuchet/castle.html>.

I just found this site:
http://mlastyle.net/

It gives examples for any type of source.

Oh man this was always so much fun :) I think you just have to document it as a website not an interview. This is what I can come up with. (someone PLEASE correct me if I'm wrong!!) Nova Online is your author,so I think it would go something like this:

Nova Online. "Life in a Castle." Secrets of Lost Empires (in Italics). 2000. http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/nova/lostempires/trebuchet/castle.html
(access date).

Now I'm not sure if you have to add PBS or not, sorry-hope this helps some :)
