[quote="Al Bonilla"]ok have to ask what switcher are they using[/quote] NBC has an agreement with Sony, so they are punching on an HD capable Sony ... either the MVS-8000, 8000A or 8000G. Even since I've watched those clips, I've wanted a piece of bundt cake! Matt

I saw this last night and laughed out loud when Conan made fun of the director for snapping his fingers, saying "it looks stupid" ! HA HA

I wanted to see him punch an M/E where some weird effect was cued up. So can somebody just give the writers what they want already so we can get good TV back on the air again?
