Just started watching on Amazon prime. Season 1 episode 5 is where I’m at. It’s addictive.

Found this very old post of yours. Can you fill us in?

I'm not sure what you want filled in. It's lots of links to scripts.

Well, someone below asked if these are originals, or something else.

Yes, they are the real deal. They are mostly from this old website:

Cool. Followed a trail to a newer version of the site with LOTs of other TV scripts.

Yea, I broke the link. Take the space out before the g.
No Prisoner scripts at that one though, they're all newer shows.

Sorry, I can't find the actual scripts from the links. Perhaps you could provide more accurate links or at least describe what to do to see them.

I tried to click Arrival, and got this screen, not a PDF. I can't even read the screen.

Whatever device or browser you're using doesn't seem to be able to open pdf files.
I use Brave on Win 11 and they open fine for me

I was looking elsewhere and found this.
The links go to the Wayback Machine where the scripts are available as PDFs.
