Phil Olivetti is the most under-appreciated and underrated Chris Lilley character 😂😂

[@Hazza_Harding]

This was so awkward to watch... because I actually know some people like this! Really good acting!

[@AdamSWL]

Yes! Someone I used to work with is this character personified. Very scary and absolutely awkward to watch! Phil has to be my favourite Chris Lilley character.

[@ArtVandelayOfficial]

Same,met a few along the way

[@Hardcastle83]

Yes we all know Phil Olivettis. Just constantly lying and boasting about how great they are when it is so transparently obvious they are a loser. Lol.

[@ladyreverie7027]

The naturalness of the acting is just phenomenal!

[@JackWhitehead1981]

Chris Lilley inspired me to become a High School teacher. We don’t often have lockdown drills, but when we do, I tell the kids there’s a paedophile in the school.

[@williamcozbie1233]

Half the time I forget he’s really a dude, gran j’amie, Tim’s Mum....

[@coffeechatsandwalks3976]

He really becomes his characters

[@tonimarx6405]

My God, i had an Uncle named Phil who behaved just like this. Every single thing that fell out of his mouth was pure cringe and everyone in his vicinity would look unbearably uncomfortable which made it 10x worse. But he was totally and utterly oblivious. He once stood up at my Cousins wedding and gave a 5 minute speech about his observations on pigeons which he could see outside of the window. It was so insane that everyone laughed hysterically. He pointed out that pigeons were not a laughing matter. Totally bonkers.

[@amfxoxo]

Oh gosh, he makes me feel the same way I felt about Ricky Gervais' character in The Office...just so repulsed by his worminess but also this desire to give him a hug?

[@brociopath3702]

Looooooool waaaaay funnier than Rocky Gervais 😂

[@dansharov6828]

That's what a typical Australian is really...

[@samt7966]

I’ve met you once at a Melbourne nightclub and you were the sweetest loveliest well-mannered man and when I asked for a photo with you, you put your cap backwards and took a photo with me! This was right after I watched “Ja’mie, private school girl” and I wa star struck! I love your work, please make more!

[@heatofthedisco]

The "Tommy Emmanuel's" & "Hoodoo Gurus" music selection is a very clever joke. It's so accurate for this character is amazing. Even though it was small, one of my favorite things in the whole series.

[@oinkooink]

Are you a Midnight Oils fan? Whack that on...do the bald head thing

[@MommyCassReborns]

I feel odlly repulsed and saddened by Phil. It is good acting!

[@simferpol]

Its too real.

[@gin5sey]

Chris, you are an Australian legend. Your characters are literally a comedic time capsule of our time. Love you forever #fuckcancelculture

[@DoomSplitta]

Phil has always been my favourite, the "did you eat all the Yogos Jordan?" Deflection has stayed with me after all these years. The uniquely AUS pudding/yoghurt reference is possibly my greatest CL moment.

[@lady64]

Hopefully ur having a good day Chris 😊 thanks for uploading

[@underratedunity1528]

Even down to the names he picks for his characters, the partners and spouses, the houses and where they come from in Australia it's all just perfect!

[@chrispayne1824]

3:06 The 'settle down settle down' is brilliant. When he's imagined what this will be like the kids would obviously be raucous and thrilled to see him, and when that doesn't materialise he's too thick to be able to adapt 😂

[@lisam4777]

'We Can Be Heroes: Finding the Australian of the Year' is the best of all the Chris Lilley series, in my opinion. The characters are all just so well done!

[@erm492]

the barbecue scene is still the most cringe-worthy thing ever

[@davidlillecrapp2960]

Yeah, I don't think I can name another situation on TV or film or my own life that could compare to the embarrassing awkwardness of this character.

[@1414yorks]

[@MrShroomz84]

When he tries to bribe Malcolm and says "I was just kidding" when turned down, is a case of Schroedinger's Douchebag. He's either "just joking" or completely serious, but we don't know until Malcolm responds 😂 (Although we know he's serious regardless)

[@dasmuss6174]

They look like a good weave, how ya find those around ya Johnson? 😂

[@anelkaisgood2]

8:00 best bit.... 😂😂. Remember laughing hysterically at this bit watching it the first time, and basically every time.... Way he says ‘bye’ under his breath and then continues in about Canberra.. 😂🤣🤣🤣🤣. Putting Chris Lilly on the map right there and then!!! 😂🤣🤣🤣

[@arveyilleszender5809]

Chris Lilley is without doubt an absolute genius.

[@TechnoAdamGuy]

Probably one of the most underrated Chris Lilley characters. And what’s so funny is I read Phil is suppose to live in Bray Park, which is the suburb I live in. Idk if it was actually filmed there, but the fact I know someone who lives near me who acts like this is uncanny. Typical goofy North Brisbane behaviour 😂

[@tessajones9393]

@@sarah-jaynemcdonald2594 The issue was that he performed in blackface, he also portrayed an Asian woman and a boy from Tonga. He's a white man and it's 2021. It's perfectly OK to play a woman or girl, but if you really want to write about black/Asian people etc., hire actors who are from those ethnicities. It's only natural that these things are frowned upon, and he knew that before he made those shows.

What I think is brilliant about the show is how you nailed the very subtle differences between states. Even within the broad class distinctions of Daniel, Phil, Pat and Ja'mie, you make them sound specifically like they're from that state and not the others.
