Scripts on View at Springfield Springfield
October 26, 2013
We would like to let you in on a curious database out of the U.K., Springfield! Springfield!, where a vast entertainment wasteland is (semi-)documented. If you have ever had a fit of nostalgia and wished you could find scripts for television shows or films from years gone by, this is the site to check. Ditto if you’d like to chew over the plot of a show you saw last week. The description on the home page is concise:
“Springfield! Springfield! hosts a database containing thousands of TV show episode scripts and movie scripts. TV show episode scripts are available for all the latest top TV shows including… Breaking Bad, Doctor Who, Family Guy, Game of Thrones, How I Met Your Mother, Glee, My Little Pony, Orange Is the New Black, Pretty Little Liars, Sons of Anarchy, The Walking Dead, The Simpsons, True Blood, The Big Bang Theory”
Now that is a diverse list. As one might expect from the name, the site celebrates the longest-running scripted TV series in the U.S. (Springfield is the name of the town in which The Simpsons is set, for those unfamiliar with the show.) However, scripts from many, many other shows and movies can be found at the site, dating an impressive way back. It does not have a search function, but the scripts are listed in a straight-forward, browsable alphabetical format. There is related content, too, like episode guides, character lists, and screen grabs. Whether you want to take a walk down memory lane or catch up on recent episode of your current favorites, check out Springfield! Springfield!
