Copy and paste them into Excel first. They'll all be in one column, so use the Data>Text to Columns wizard and adjust the column widths appropriately. Now you can Import them into Access from the Excel spreadsheet.

StateTheObviousFilter: There are much better Buffy episode guides than that, if it's primarily Buffy you're interested in.

Well I know, but it's for a cataloguing project and I needed a way to pull the data into something without having to type it all in...
