"Brothers of Man is a fan edit of the original Battlestar Galactica's "Terra" story arc. This edit attempts to make a single story out of the episodes Greetings from Earth, Baltar's Escape, and Experiment in Terra. While separate episodes, these three in their original form held a linear style of story telling, which set off this edit concept.

I tried to tighten the episodes, and of course remove much of the silliness that was written in with things like Hector and Vector (and the kids as much as possible). I also tried to work in a bit of a Cylon threat that was not there in the original, plus new bookends to the edit that ties into the mythology of the series and maybe ties up a loose end here and there.

While represented as a standalone, it is still helpful to have watched, or have knowledge, of the series and the stories that happened before, as points from previous episodes are referenced.

    another bit from the youtube comment

    "Since Greetings from Earth was a 2 part episode, this edit combines the length of 4 episodes into a 2 hour and 16 minute movie."
