If the fluid is dark your transmission is probably in bad shape. Burned fluid is an indication of serious "slipping", that's when the clutches aren't making a solid connection. Slipping causes heat which burns the fluid and causes the clutch surface to wear rapidly. Smell the fluid, if it smells burnt or has a black or brown color to it, the transmission is done. If there was much over a tablespoon of debris in the bottom of the pan, it's clutch material and the transmission is also done. Most vehicles do not have a plug for draining the torque converter.
