So you are getting the previously released Collections 2, 3, and 4 in new packaging. This does not include...

Collections 2 to 4 repackaged
This collection is about 33 hours long, which contains the season 2-4 from 2007-2009. Seasons 1 (2005), 5 and 6 (2010-2011) are released on a separate collection, and season 7 (2012) will be released in August 2012.

Without a doubt, this is the most entertaining food travel program blowing any other program out of competition. It includes a good balance between covering food and covering the sights of the country, but more on the food side. Each episode would roughly follow the same formula: 1- a traditional or national dish in a middle class setting, 2- eating in a budget restaurant or home meal, 3- Eating in a gourmet upscale restaurant with a known chef. The local guides that Anthony relies on are usually very knowledgeable.

For the price of the package, you get 33 hours for only $20, that's roughly 100 minutes per $1. You can't get a better bargain than this! You can sample some episodes on other video sites then buy the collection from here. Highly...

Bourdain
Tony is the man if you want to travel, and eat all over the world from your couch. I recommend it.
