On last night's show, Conan O'Brian said that the entire show on thursday will be clay animated, but I couldn't tell if he was joking or not. So watch out for that.
Holy shit, it's true!

Quote:In an unprecedented move, NBC's "Late Night with Conan O'Brien" will broadcast an entire episode in clay animation. The experimental and groundbreaking episode airs Thursday, May 15 (12:35 AM - 1:35 AM on NBC).

"This may be the best show we've ever done...in clay," noted O'Brien. The show, which has been in production for months, is a complete clay animated re-creation of an episode of "Late Night" from October 2002 - from the opening, to the monologue, comedy, guests - even the bumpers that lead in and out of commercial.

Guests on the episode are "Jackass" star Johnny Knoxville, comedian Richard Lewis and musical guest David Bowie. In addition, the show features O'Brien's recurring look into the future in the one of the show's signature sketches: "In the Year 2000" with surprise guest.

That's so cool! Reason #125,763,456 why Late Night with Conan O'Brian is the best late night talk show out there.
Oh yes, I am going to watch this.
Um....okay...
You don't think this is cool? What's the matter with you, man??!!

:chainsaw:
Any particular reason I should find an overdone gimic like claymation cool?
What was the last late night talk show you've seen that was done entirely in claymation, you cynical bastard?
It's a claymation late night talk show for crying out loud!!
I just don't know what's wrong with that boy.
Now what did Great Rumbler ever do to you?
Rolleyes

:ass:
I missed it! Godammit. (old news I know)

I was looking forward to it pretty bad, too. :(
It was great. Claymation Bowie was my favorite. :D
That was hilarious!

I really don't think "hundred of man-hours of work and millions of dollars" is very accurate...
