America's Test Kitchen: The Complete 4th Season

Great series, but no recipes included
There are no recipes included on these DVD's - of any season - until Season 9. Season 9 does have recipes. Presumably they will be included in future editions, as well. Clearly they wanted to sell the recipes either in the companion book or online, so it is to their credit they have started including the recipes on the DVD's.

There are many parts of episodes missing from the DVD's that were part of the actual season. The web site has all the episodes listed with each and every recipe they did: [...]

I have all of the DVD sets, and there are many, many of the recipes that are not on the DVD's that are listed there for the actual shows. Although they say:

AMERICA'S TEST KITCHEN: THE COMPLETE x SEASON All 26 episodes

This is rather misleading, because they are not complete.

That being said, the shows are excellent. I found the quality of the production to be very good. The recipes are great, the episodes are fun to watch...

good
