There is a special broadcast of the Conan O'Brien this Thursday Night(or I should say Friday 12:35am-1:35am EST) in which an entire episode will be clay animated. Here is more from Yahoo! News:

NBC plans to air an entire installment of its "Late Night with Conan O'Brien" in stop-motion clay animation for next Thursday's broadcast of the show, the network said on Friday.The May "sweeps" stunt, which has been in production for months, is a complete clay-animated re-creation of an episode of "Late Night" from last October, including the show's opening monologue, guest appearances, and even the "bumpers" that lead in and out of commercials.
The animation is not nearly as life-like as the popular "Celebrity Death Match" caricatures on MTV, hewing closer to the more crudely rendered "Mr. Bill" segments of "Saturday Night Live (news - Y! TV)" fame.
Guests for the special Conan episode, produced in-house by NBC's scenic department, are "Jackass" star Johnny Knoxville (news), comedian Richard Lewis and rocker David Bowie (news). In addition, the show features O'Brien's recurring look into the future in one of his signature sketches, "In the Year 2000," with surprise guest Mr. T.
Said O'Brien of the upcoming presentation, "This may be the best show we've ever done ... in clay."
Here's a picture of what the episode will look like:
So all you Conan fans might want to set your VCRs.
