Gilgamesh Night
Gilgamesh Night (ギルガメッシュないと / ギルガメッシュ・ナイト) was a softcore porn Japanese variety TV show broadcast from October 1991 to March 1998.[1] Airing Saturdays at 1:15 a.m. on TV Tokyo, the hour-long show helped launch the career of one of its late hosts, Ai Iijima, who afterwards moved into a more mainstream career.

[edit] Description
Gilgamesh was a long-running example of the late-night sex-oriented programming popular on Japanese television.
The show was in the format of a talk show, with the talk focusing on sex. Break-away segments peppered the conversation, including such skits as Bathtub Cinema, in which a nude young woman in a bathtub reviewed a current film; Lingerie Photo Break, a photo session with a scantily-clothed or nude model; and No-Panty Pub Report, in which the television crew would visit a Tokyo bar featuring waitresses without undergarments.[2]
