COOPER&BURNETT Posted December 10, 2008 Report Share Posted December 10, 2008 Here's an actual vintage script that was used by an actor in 1987 for the episode "LIKE A HURRICANE". This is not a reproduction. Interestingly, Caitlin's name was originally to have been "Corinna". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

COOPER&BURNETT Posted December 10, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 10, 2008 There are some deleted lines, omitted stuff, and changed dialog. Most is accurate though.I just completed a deal where I'm aquiring two more actual vintage scripts, and three crew hats. Titles of the episodes to be announced.

Testarossa Posted December 20, 2008 Report Share Posted December 20, 2008 That's awesome. Any chance we can get the whole thing uploaded? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
COOPER&BURNETT Posted December 23, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 23, 2008 That's awesome. Any chance we can get the whole thing uploaded?Honestly, that would take too much time for me to do. It's not that I have anything against it, but it's too much work for so little entertainment value I think. Some lines are not as on the show by just a few words, some scenes that were cut out, but nothing news worthy. Thanks for the interest. I'll let everyone know when I get the other scripts as well, and what episodes they are from, (I still don't know!) but I'm under the impression that they are from season 4.

COOPER&BURNETT Posted January 2, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 2, 2009 The other two scripts I got from the same source are not from season 4, but season 3. I have a bit of a mystery on my hands, as I would like to know who either acted in these three shows, or somehow worked on the three shows that would give him or her access to three identical, unworn crew hats, and three scripts.

I'm a little curious, how many pages is a Miami Vice episode script? Just so I can get a comparison between a feature film and a television episode.

Lar Posted January 6, 2009 Report Share Posted January 6, 2009 Very cool, C&B! A few years back, I actually bought some genuine scripts (not MV, they were from Just Shoot Me. Yeah, I used to find that crap funny enough to collect two scripts from it), and it's amazing how much early drafts can differ from the finished episode.

Sometimes, it's just a line with the wording just changed around, but basically it's still the same. Hard to believe I can read these scripts without a head!Still have no idea who owned these three scripts and unworn cast/crew hats...But it came from the same person.
