===Television=== The first, local TV season of ''[[Mystery Science Theater 3000]]'' includes five episodes which each feature a film from the ''Gamera'' franchise's Shōwa period: ''Gamera, the Giant Monster'', ''Gamera vs. Barugon'', ''Gamera vs. Gyaos'', ''Gamera vs. Guiron'', and ''Gamera vs. Zigra''. The same five films were re-used in the show's third national season.<ref>{{cite web|last=Brunson|first=Matt|url=https://screenrant.com/mystery-science-theater-3000-best-classic-episodes-netflix-revival/|title=Mystery Science Theater 3000's Best Episodes|date=21 April 2017|website=ScreenRant|access-date=7 July 2019}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|last=Jasper|first=Gavin|url=https://www.denofgeek.com/us/tv/comedy/281408/mst3k-giant-monster-movies-mystery-science-theater-3000|title=MST3K: A Guide to the Giant Monster Movies of Mystery Science Theater 3000|date=31 May 2019|website=Den of Geek|access-date=7 July 2019}}</ref> The thirteenth season of the show also contains an episode that features ''Gamera vs. Jiger''.
