A VERY GOOD USE OF YOUR TIME.

The setup

Kyle Mooney keeps asking his co-workers what they're doing for Christmas, and the answers get lonelier and stranger the longer he stays at 30 Rock.

The premise

Here’s the bit.

Kyle, in a red sweater, tries to line up Christmas plans with the people around Studio 8H and gets polite brush-offs from everyone, including an elf-costumed Bowen Yang, a pair of office co-workers and host Billie Eilish. When he finally breaks down and admits he has no one to spend the holiday with, Billie asks who brings him joy. Kyle names his fellow cast members one by one, then spirals into a creepy revenge fantasy about Mikey Day before cheerfully thanking her and ending on a Merry Christmas card from his recurring characters.

Say it with us

Highly quotable.

I know, I'm sort of an SNL vet, but I'm surprisingly down to hang with people like you.

Santa does it all in one night. The guy's a monster.

They don't know how to use me on this show.

  19. 02:00

    Kyle

    I know. They don't know how to use me on this show. I have no one to spend Christmas with. Even the Please Don't Destroy guys said I shouldn't be alive. Oh,

  20. 02:09

    Billie Eilish

    sorry, man. But Christmas isn't just about where you are on December 25th. It's about the love that surrounds you every day I bet there's a lot of Christmas joy here at 30 Rock. Yeah,

  21. 02:20

    Kyle

    I Guess you're right.

  22. 02:22

    Billie Eilish

    So go ahead who brings Christmas joy into your life Well,

  23. 02:28

    Kyle

    there's Kenan Thompson He still calls me Beck Bennett But I can tell that his heart is definitely in the right place and no one's better than Heidi and Eggo. They're so funny They've got this really great bit going where they just don't follow me on Instagram.

  24. 02:44

    Kyle

    Can't forget Pete. You know, it's tough being the handsome guys on your show. The tabloids just won't leave us alone. I guess everyone here brings me joy, except maybe Mikey Day.

  25. 02:58

    Kyle

    I really don't like him. I think he's fake. I have a fantasy where I catch him on a riding night all alone.

  26. 03:06

    Kyle

    Sort of tie him up. I'm wearing a mask, but I let him get a peek at who's in charge. Kyle? You guessed it. I throw him in a closet, kick him around a little bit, pour some gasoline on him, just to mess with him. Then I go on his computer, change all the Mikeys in his scripts to Kyle's, and then look at me.

  27. 03:21

    Kyle

    I'm the star of the show. I'm Don Doudna! So yeah, to answer your question, it's very joyful to be here at 30 Rock.

  28. 03:32

    Billie Eilish

    Holy .

  29. 03:33

    Kyle
