[edit] Show title

Is the name of the show Twenty One or Twenty-One? It seems to me that conventions of writing out numbers in American English have always demanded hyphenation, but the word appears the vast majority of the time in this article (including its title) without the hyphen. I think the only way a reader of this article could begin to think it is authoritative would be to have the name of the show punctuated (spelled) consistently throughout. Thanks very much,--Scrawlspacer 03:02, 10 October 2007 (UTC)

I agree. It's driving me nuts. I'm going to change them all to Twenty One, based on a screen shot. However, the screen shot has "Twenty" on the first line and "One" on the second, so it's not a definitive source, but it's the best I can find. Online sources seem to spell it both ways.
