Hi all- I have found websites with monologues, tv scripts, movie scripts etc like Whysanity, Drew's etc etc. But I have yet to find a site that is dedicated to scenes for actors, especially from movies or tv. Just do not have time to go through every site and every script looking for two person scenes. Any suggestions on websites you guys know of? Thanks all.

Well, seeing as how you're not being flooded with answers, let me at least make you aware of the free two-person scenes on my site. They're not actually from TV - I suspect you'll find copyright issues inhibit posting those - but they are samples of the kinds of scenes TV writers seem to re-use over and over. I can't speak to the quality - did I mention I wrote them myself? - but you might find them useful.

It sounds as if you've already found the online screenplay world (gotta love Drew's scriptorama). Now you need to sit patiently and read through the screenplays looking for good scenes. Hey, you need to read the story anyway, right, and it will only help you to read good material. Choose screenplays that are not too recent or too well known and settle in. You can do the same with plays, of course. I think it's always better to choose a scene yourself than to use one someone else has already 'collected' for you (which means many other people will be using it too!)
