And your host … clay Conan O’Brien.

In the grand tradition of “Celebrity Deathmatch” and “Wallace and Gromit,” NBC’s “Late Night With Conan O’Brien” has been transformed into clay animation for an episode that will air Thursday night.

“This may be the best show we’ve ever done,” O’Brien declared Friday–“in clay.”

The episode, in production for months, is a clay recreation of a “Late Night” hour that aired in its original, live-action version in October. The guests are “Jackass” star Johnny Knoxville, comedian Richard Lewis and David Bowie. Mr. T appears in a sketch.
