Johnny Cash, The Carpenters, Bob Hope, Bing Crosby, The Osmonds, Perry Como, and even Kathie Lee Gifford have all hosted celebrity-driven Christmas specials, and now Bill Murray is tackling the genre. On December 4th, Netflix will debut A Very Murray Christmas, a fictional behind-the-scenes take on a yuletide talent show.

The movie is set inside of the Carlyle Hotel, where Murray, George Clooney, Amy Poehler, Michael Cera, and Miley Cyrus attempt to put on a holiday show while a snowstorm has paralyzed the city outside. It was written by Sofia Coppola, and of course stars Saint Bill Murray.

They've just released this promo, and now we're really pining for one of those vinyls.
