Sorry, Justin Bieber. You've just been out Christmas song'd by Community's Troy (Donald Glover) and Abed (Danny Pudi)! 

If you loved Greendale's best besties' Spanish rap in season one, you do not want to miss tonight's Christmas episode, which also happens to be the comedy's last episode before a very long hiatus (we're still giving you the stink-eye, NBC!). And what holiday season isn't complete without a painting depicting the murder of the Black Eyed Peas? A Parks & Recreation holiday season, that's what!

On Community, Abed must convince his BFF/roomie Troy to join Greendale's annual Christmas pageant—despite the fact that he's a Jehovah's Witness. Of course, Abed being Abed, knows the perfect way around that tiny little problem: rapping! Seriously, the duo's rap about Troy infiltrating Christmas as a spy definitely tops their Spanish rap.

Though she's been suspended after her relationship with Ben (Adam Scott), aka the greatest man ever, was revealed, that doesn't stop Leslie from giving everyone the perfect Christmas gift on Parks & Recreation. While our favorite is definitely April's (Aubrey Plaza)—a glorious painting of her killing the Black Eyed Peas ("It's a Christmas miracle")—we can't help but love the fact that her gift for Ron (Nick Offerman) brought him to tears. Swanson tears don't come cheap, y'all!

Prepare for some Christmas awkwardness on The Office when Andy's (Ed Helms) new girlfriend Jessica (Eleanor Seigler) drops by and meets his ex Erin (Ellie Kemper). From awkward introductions (including hugs) to Erin's "spontaneous scoliosis" it's just as painfully awkward, and hilarious, as you could imagine.

NBC's Christmas comedy block starts tonight at 8 p.m. with Community, followed by Parks & Recreation and The Office
