A community for the fans and critics of the show 30 Rock.

Discussion of the show, pictures from the show and anything else 30 Rock related.

Rules:

  1. All DubVee instance rules apply. See the sidebar at https://dubvee.org/. Those are pretty comprehensive, so we don't really need to add much to those.
  2. No politics outside of what's referenced on the show. Let's leave that drama elsewhere since there's plenty of it.
  3. All posts must be 30 Rock related or adjacent. You dummies are awesome, so I don't think I've ever had to mod any posts for this, but codifying it for good measure.
  4. Less a rule and more of a guideline, but please try to provide alt text if your instance + client combination support it. If not, then please try to make an effort to provide a description of any image posts in the post body.
  5. Don't make fun of people for misusing dated cultural references. Are we all cowabunga on this?
  6. No talking about Krang! It would be a waste of time to talk about Krang on ~~television~~ the internet!

Code named Gadzorp, the entire point is to serve as a reference with scripts from every episode as well as all the GIFs that I have created for the show. The biggest issue at this point is that I need to make time to manually go though each script and revise them as needed (as well as add scripts for the deleted scenes). But in the meantime, please check it out and give me some feedback! Tell me how it breaks, try to hack into it, all that stuff.

How are you doing the transcripts? Just pulling from the extracted .srt files?

Almost. My Blu-ray rips are subtitled with PGS/SUP, which apparently uses an image for subtitles instead of simple plain text like SRT. So I found a program called sup2srt which uses an OCR engine to convert the subtitle images to SRT, which I can then load into the database that this site uses. But, there are some issues with that:

  • Obviously, OCR is imperfect. It did a great job overall, but there were still a lot of things that need to be fixed
  • Most seasons, the subtitles are ALL CAPS.
  • There are a few scenes with hardcoded subtitles (such as the scene in Queen of Jordan in which Jack/Liz are whispering). These lines are not part of the subtitle file

I made some quick Python scripts that go through all the script files to fix common mistakes, but I am also slowly going through each script individually to manually revise them.
