There's no need to subclass TemplateView and provide your own implementation
of get_context_data() - the default TemplateView implementation does exactly
(and I mean character-for-character exactly) what you've defined. So, you
just need to deploy a default TemplateView in your urls.py:

('^foo/(?P<id>\d+)/$',
TemplateView.as_view(template_name='my_template.html'))

Your template should work exactly as-is.

I know the class-based views docs aren't as good as they could be - thats
mostly my fault. I also know that "read the source" isn't a real
documentation answer. However, the CBV code is quite well documented
internally, and isn't all that complex at the end of the day - if you've got
questions about how to do something obscure with CBVs, a quick peruse of the
source is well worth your time.
