[edit] Description

Gilgamesh was a pioneering and long-running example of the late-night sex-oriented programming popular on Japanese television during the 1990s. 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 sans undergarments.^[1]
