Welcome to the Beauty and the Beast Script & Transcription project website.
Who we are and why we're here:
We are a group of fans who have come together for the common goal of making available
online the scripts and transcriptions of all the episodes of Beauty and the Beast.
Each episode transcription will be in English and contain the exact dialogue used in the aired version.
We thought this would be helpful for a number of reasons:
- as a reference for fanfic writers
- as a help to those fans whose native language is not English
- as a guide for those who don't have access to any of the episode videos
- as a quick "fix" when you just can't get to your tv ;-)
The scripts are another very important part of our project. We are gathering scripts of
all the episodes, each of which exists in multiple versions, as the writers developed and adjusted the first idea into the actual episode that was filmed. Our objective is to make available online both the earliest versions of the scripts and the actual transcriptions of the aired episodes (in English). Many episodes went through some fascinating changes between their first incarnation and the final filmed version. (As an example, look at the opening and closing scenes of "The Watcher" in the original script.) Making the various versions available will make it
possible for everyone to enjoy the development of our favorite show.
We chose to include PDF format for anyone interested in seeing what the actual scripts look
like. PDF reader software, if you don't already have it, is free, safe to use, and available from Adobe.
We'll get back to work now, and we'll keep fandom informed when we have more to show you. In
the meantime, we welcome
comments, questions, suggestions, and offers of help – we need people willing to
watch the episodes and transcribe them, and people willing and able to edit the
rough transcriptions. Until then, be well.
It is the goal of this web site to post the exact transcriptions of the episodes of the TV series Beauty and the Beast (1987-1990), as well as the scripts for those episodes. No infringement of copyright is intended. If the owners of these copyrights have issues with any part
of this site, please contact us and we will remove any objectionable material.
