Ōoka Echizen was a long-running prime-time television jidaigeki in Japan. From March 16, 1970 to March 15, 1999, 402 episodes were broadcast. Also, a two-hour special aired on March 20, 2006, commemorating the fiftieth anniversary of the National Gekijō, which occupies the Monday evening 8:00–8:54 time slot on the TBS network, sponsored by Matsushita. It alternated, seasonally, with Mito Kōmon and Edo o Kiru.

The title character is Ōoka Tadasuke, a historical person who was a magistrate in the city of Edo during the time of Tokugawa Yoshimune in the eighteenth century. The magistrate acted as chief of police, judge and jury. The show was a detective-courtroom program. Actor Gō Katō created the title character and played him throughout the life of the series.

Among the characters were many who appeared in several years. For two decades, Muga Takewaki played Sakakibara Iori, a doctor at the Koishikawa Yōjōsho. Chiezō Kataoka acted as Tadasuke's father until his death in 1983. Tadasuke's wife was initially portrayed by Masayo Utsunomiya; after the 1983 season Wakako Sakai replaced her and continued until 1985. Later that year, Yoshie Taira took on the role, and continued for the remainder of the series. Shiho, the apprentice doctor, appeared from 1983 to 1996. Actress Ritsuko Nemoto portrayed her, and returned for the 2006 special, as did Takewaki and Taira. Takashi Yamaguchi appeared occasionally as Yoshimune.

Originally a late night Friday broadcast, the television special was popular and started airing in prime time on October 14, 1995. It was broadcast every season and gained popularity as Sportsman No.1 Ketteisen. Through various games reverting to the origins of sports, professional players and general participants challenged the limits of physical strength and technique, winning prizes if all targets were successfully destroyed.

Kane Kosugi's Shaolin Temple training and Akira Oomori's Muay Thai bouts were also documented in the broadcasts. The popularity of the displays of amazing physical strength and technique by professional players and luck of general participants drove TV Asahi to move its anime time slot up one hour and caused the cancellation of Heisei Kyouikuiinkai on Fuji TV.

Kato-chan Ken-chan Gokigen TV is a popular Japanese television variety show aired on Tokyo Broadcasting System around the mid-1980s. Starring Ken Shimura and Cha Kato, former members of the group The Drifters from Hachiji Dayo! Zen'in Shugo, the irreverent and satirical program would poke fun at contemporary society in Japan, and would feature comedy vignettes similar to those found on The Benny Hill Show or The Carol Burnett Show. Leslie Nielsen once made a special appearance on the show as well.

It is notable for having a segment featuring funny home videos sent in by viewers, as the home camcorder became more popular in Japan, which Ken and Kato would comment on. In 1989, American producer Vin Di Bona initiated a partnership with Tokyo Broadcasting System to develop a similar program in the west, which ultimately led to the successful America's Funniest Home Videos and other similar shows worldwide. Some videos seen in the first season of America's Funniest Home Videos originally aired on Fun TV with Kato-chan and Ken-chan.

The duo also had a PC Engine video game called "Kato-chan and Ken-chan" based on their antics, filled with toilet humor, and featuring them as the game's playable characters.
