This is a reality TV example, so YMMV, but The Masked Singer aired a clip show
of the performances so far in its episode last Wednesday night. They called it
a 'sing-along special' and had new footage introducing the songs and captions
for you to, well, sing along.
I'm having a hard time thinking of a non-reality TV example from this past
decade. I found mention of an NCIS episode from 2014 - "House Rules" that uses
clips, but only in the last act.

I'm lying in bed tonight watching old Simpsons episodes when a thought crossed
my mind.
In 2002, the show aired Gump Roast, which is considered the last clip show the
series aired.
After some light perusal of Wikipedia, I was directed to "The Banker" from the
sixth season of The Office, which calls the episode a clip show. That aired in
2010. I'll take its word for it, since I've never seen the series.
I can't imagine, in an on-demand/streaming environment, that any show could get
away with trying to pull an old-school clip show as a traditional episode. Can
the panel think of any moderately known US series done a clip show since then?
Or was The Banker fundamentally the last clip show?
