Does that mean that each Episode counts as a separate movie?

America has never been an empire. We may be the only great power in history that had the chance, and refused – preferring greatness to power and justice to glory. - George W. Bush

Yes, I believe so. I mean I don't have the series on DVD or anything, but I've seen just about every Band of Brothers show and I thought that they were each separate movies. If someone disagrees or has a different opinion, please inform this thread.
