Need a little more detail than that. What make/model? What happened to make you think it was the lamp?

If it is a projector it is certainly possible the lamp is the problem as that is common. For most TVs it is fairly easy to replace the lamp. Usually there is a panel on the side with a screw or two that you remove and pull the old bulb/housing and replace with a new one. Most are pretty much plug and play. Lamps run anywhere from $100 to hundreds of dollars and average life is probably in the 2000-3000 hour range so it may not be worth it with HDTV prices continuing to fall.
