Various television movies were released for all four of the Battlestar Galactica series, whether solely on VHS, on DVD, or for broadcast television as movie or mini-series events. Some were released theatrically first, then were released on TV. The ones from the Original Series (both Battlestar Galactica and Galactica 1980) that mix different television episodes have chopped and misplaced scenes, bad dubbing, costume and hairstyle changes from one scene to the next, and plenty of plot confusion. Entirely new footage was created for Experiment in Terra. All of the telemovies are archived online.
