It seems to me like a website providing transcripts of shows would be 
just as illegal as one providing the shows themselves.  It's not likely 
the copyright owner would publish such data, because the only use for it 
would be people recording shows, and watching it without commercials.  
Not something they would want to facilitate or encourage.
