AKB48 Show! is a TV variety show produced by NHK in Japan, and aired weekly on BS Premium and NHK World Premium from October 5, 2013, to March 24, 2019.[1] The show featured songs, comedy skits and short dramas performed by AKB48 and sister groups.

From September 2, 2018 (2018-09-02) until March 24, 2019 (2019-03-24), the show aired on BS Premium every Sunday at 10:50 PM JST, with repeats from previous episode every Sunday at 09:30 AM JST.

The show ended on March 24, 2019, after 216 episodes.

Episode structure

[edit]

Episodes usually start with a short skit set in a dressing room, after which the performers run onto the stage for their opening performance, which changes every episode. Generally the 48G groups have two or three musical performances. Some episodes have special performances, solo performances or live band performances. Some episodes (such as Sousenkyo Specials) has no music performances or are broadcast live from a remote location.

Full Band Performances (as of June 2017, including AKB48 FES)

In the first episodes, were presented episodes of AKB Classroom in which Ian Moore talks to classes about the 48G universe.[citation needed] Some episodes are focused on a 48G particular event as "Request Hour" or a concert in another country. Episodes 35 and 36 were a TV adaptation of Documentary of AKB48: The Time Has Come.

On October 3, 2015 (2015-10-03), to mark the Season 3 Premiere a new opening title sequence was introduced, with a pink degradée background instead of solid white, and rotating cubes forming the show's logo, followed by a frame attached to a striped band (inherited from the opening sequence of 2014-15 Season) with one of the members shouting the title of the show.

On November 21, 2015 (2015-11-21), 48 SHOW was the only TV show to perform the full version of the song "Shekarashika!" from HKT48, four days prior official release. However, this episode wasn't aired on NHK World Premium, due to sports coverage. The Full MV from "Shekarashika!" was released in April 2016. 48 SHOW is also the only TV show to air NGT48's "Max Toki 315 Gou" edited MV, and NGT48 Official Channel wasn't released a full version (available only in single). On August 13, 2016 (2016-08-13), SKE48 performed live "Kin no Ai, Gin no Ai", thus making the only show to present the full-length song 4 days before its official release. "Bagutte Iijan" (HKT48) is the only 48G single not performed yet on the show.

From episode #128 to #163, a new opening was introduced, based on "Colorful Garden" animations, using footage from latest episodes, and the show's logo on white background with moving colored flowers. A 5th opening movie was introduced on episode #164 and lasted until episode #180. From episodes #181 to #198, a new title sequence using the song "Jyuryoku Sympathy" was introduced for the show's new timeslot. From episodes #199 to #216, the seventh and final opening sequence features the instrumental section of "Matenrou no Kyori" and clips from music videos from "Teacher Teacher", "Ikinari Punchline", "Hayaokuri Calendar", "Sekai no Hito e", "Kurayami" and "Yokubomono".

The last song performed on the show (episode #216) is "Yakusoku yo", performed by 56 members from 48G, and the final recording was held on March 15, 2019 (2019-03-15).
