Most underrated Chris lilley character. He captured the Chinese accent and nerdish demeanor so well, it's so convincing. It takes an Asian to recognise every little asian detail in his acting... He's so Cantonese.

[@alexandratoth2981]

3:25 "My dad sometimes whistles but that's about it" 🤣🤣🤣

[@SosoYouTube]

Ricky Wong is one of our favourite Chris lilley characters ever!! Can't fault him, he's such a good energy. ' doing it for the people' 💜⭐🌟✨

[@cmarlo8091]

Ricky Wong is one of the best for sure

[@cletustheaborted8324]

Chris mate start a patreon or something bro. We NEED these old Chris Lilley shows and characters back. This is some peak Aussie TV, youd be so much better without corporate shills telling you what you can and cant do

[@casperjennings9348]

Yes please!!!!!!!

[@YK-fj5bj]

2:05 Perfect! 👏😄😅 ‘Hey! How are you?’ in Cantonese.

[@annmarie4442]

You in the Wong lab Ricky Wong's lab 😂

[@darcyramm2473]

There is an actual sign in my physics classroom that says "Fysics is Phun"

[@carinemunro1077]

love Ricky..so gentle and many migrants can see themselves in him im sure..its always difficult doing what parents expect of you and doing what your heart says you want to do..great character..

[@Nufcarter96]

No matter what Chris, never let anyone stop you. What a brilliant actor and person

[@JoashTham]

That tiny head bow at 4:39 is one example of the amazing keen eye for detail that he has. I never realised I did it but when I saw him do it, I was like "oh yeah, I do do that all the time if somebody opens the door for me", especially a higher up. Amazing.

[@happytime11]

Great observation. It's amazing how each of his characters has their own brilliantly observed body language, not only the voice and facial expressions, but walking style, how they move their hands... I'm in awe.

[@stefania5882]

Ricky has a special place in my heart. Love from Canada ❤🤍❤

[@mallorymurphy2678]

It still blows me away years later after first discovering Chris lilley just how truly talented he is and how he can do and does do all his characters amazingly, just SO fuckin spot on.

[@Garglicious]

Omg my astrophysics classmate whilst i was studying in Australia was literally the samee 😭🤣🤣

[@edstar01]

An white aussie playing a Chinese then that Chinese playing a Australian Aboriginal. Now that's acting!

[@miannalee1616]

I'm black and I'm mad I'm just coming across this guy. I hope this cancel crap dies out cuz he's very talented! Love from Atlanta ❤️

[@valhalla9688]

“Professor Lee, you are in the wong lab” 😂😂

[@marip7514]

Imagine if Mr. G directed a musical that Ricky Wong was in!😆

[@nurseprac.nikki513]

I’m on my 5th day of binge watching Chris’ videos. I’m now scouring KZbin for every video I can find. ❤️

[@andyturbo]

Haha oh man this never gets old Chris Please PLEASE PLEASE make a MR.G show!!!

[@WillzGotSkillz]

Funniest Aussie actor of our generation 😂

[@Lia-pr3fd]

[@hsplayers19]

The accent is so perfect

[@stephaniecarroll9224]

We love you Chris Lilley! So talented and your comedy is timeless, you are a perfectionist in everything you do and have given us such comedy gold, thank you xx

[@andyturbo]

.I know SO many people that would do anything for Mr G and Phil and Ricky to come again. Trust me even after watching EVERY Mr G clip probably over a hundred times each over the past decade and a half it NEVER gets old!

[@Natatattatification]

Mr G is my favourite!

[@anonanon1791]

Ricky is one of my favourite characters and even though Chris has been taken of air, I hope he knows that most of us support him.

[@annemarie3693]

I hope he gets back STAT. Since he is so friggin talented, beyond amazing and damn, he seems like one one of the good guys! Anyways, this being said I know quite a few PC, cancel culture characters here in America. He could play them cause dis shizz is real. Get over yourselves cancel culture 🙂

[@onepercenter13]

Another excellent character 🤣

[@sjaelfre]

In these cancel culture - and woke times, this is just so wong

[@kathrynwittmeier3035]

I feel like he’s one of the last funny people on TV! I wish his stuff was in America more! Thanks for making us laugh and keeping it lighthearted and fun! Love you Chris!

[@ChickenLegs-fp9py]

Love from Liverpool Chris

[@staycguy]

Are you making a comeback? Hi from Australia 🇦🇺 love your work.

[@bananafred123]

LEGEND

[@illuminotmereloaded6896]

1:34 Ricky was a gifted child. That's a ballsy move using that picture. Cowboy 3 pushing out in front of the lead roles. That's revolutionary.

[@mesmarriott127]

Terrific. Absolutely hilarious.

[@theundergroundking2434]

Don't think Physics is phun? You are in the Wong lab... Ricky Wong Lab!

[@jai1675]

I am SO HAPPY rn tysm Chris Lilley!!!

[@ANDYWOUNDSABRXS]

The Chinese Director is the most hilarious person in this skit. When she's 'right' its amazing.

[@Aussiegirl1972]

Absolute genius Chris 👏👏

[@curtwarner8505]

I think Chris is my hero lmao greatest actor of all time bro flawlessly plays anything you can think of

"My dad sometimes whistles " 😂

[@davidgo8874]

Amazing. Almost pissed myself @ 3:15 ! Thank you so much. It makes me happy to laugh again. I hope we get to see more from Ricky!

[@Oj12323]

We can be heroes is one of my favourite things you’ve done 🤣

[@waynekerr8003]

2 Wong's don't make a wight

[@nikodemus6315]

🤣🤣

[@DavidSmith-bi9yd]

My dad sometimes whistles.....but that's about it🤣🤣

[@jamescarney6894]

Dang, he has done it again.... stop making me laugh so much. Great work Chris, I just can't understand why CNN or MSNBC or the CIA haven't employed your talents to promote false narratives. You do it so convincingly. I have to put it down to myopic decision makers or just plain nuff nuff leaders in power.

[@illuminotmereloaded6896]

Fuck those hacks not if, but because they can't take a joke.

[@LachySimmons]

"My dad somedimes whisdles bud thad's aboud id" haha

[@mohdshow]

if you close your eyes and hear him talk, you’d think this is actually an Asian person 😭 Chris is literally that good

[@em945]

I'm sure Chris has been waiting to do that Peter Allen 'Rio' singing impression. IT WAS BRILLIANT. Thanks, Chris. You are one very funny buggar.

[@SUPP-M.F.]

Bring back Jonah from Tonga 😍😍😍

[@rebeccabrown847]

You are so funny Chris. You are the best 👍

[@samuelaust]

The wig is perfect 🤣🤣🤣

[@melindabevan6667]

I love Ricky! ❤️❤️😂

[@happytime11]

He perfectly captured the way that extremely academically intelligent people tend to have a really cheesy sense of humour that is ironically funny. My coworker is JUST like this. Comes into work saying "top of the morning" and chuckling as if it's top notch humour...

[@bigb853]

Love you Ricky

[@PurplePinkRed]

Hugh Jackman who? Ricky Wong is the real Boy From Oz #justiceforricky

[@emilyparry2755]

God I miss Chris Lilley.

[@ssam1820]

He can act like anyone and emulate anything and anyone I wish he can emulate me.

[@Frankiegoestoholly]

Wish I knew a Ricky

[@Madcant]

Mate what’s your process?? Do you just hang out with real people who you want to base the character off? Because you nail every accent and mannerism for all your characters; you’re a genius

[@kenosi7345]

You are in the "wrong lab"🤣😂🤣

[@newthrash1221]

*wong lab

[@kenosi7345]

@@newthrash1221 congratulations 👏

[@phantim_othy571]

If push comes to shove....this guy would get away with murder....Brilliant 🙏

[@hadzfs1700]

I’m so done with you Chris 🤣

[@katethegreat2222]

Thank God I can watch Australian humor poke fun at race! Here in America we are not allowed to laugh or have any fun ever about racial differences or racial humor. It’s forbidden! Verboten! Not acceptable! I wonder what Richard Pryor thinks about this. Unless you are Dave Chappell, you cannot even poke fun at trans folks either… what a dull life it is except for Chris Lilley- quite possibly the most original most hilariously gifted actor comedian EVER!!! 👍👍👍👍

[@annemarie3693]

I'm an American to, Richard Pryor would be rolling over in his grave. I hate being told to my face what's acceptable 🙂

[@burns46824]

Might I just mention that Ricky’s sister is SZECHUAN HOT!!!

[@fionayamamoto]

Only a little bit of radiation innit

[@Elephantsss]

They dont have phones in China because people would always be winging the wong number.

[@deanwassink1088]

To be fair, all they've done for his character is plant some asian style hair on him - DONE haha

[@lgenic]

Interesting how none of the Chinese actors were offended by this, as it is a caricature. Are we too sensitive these days?

[@itscalledchronic]

Pleassse just make a new jamíe show

[@simonf8902]

Ricky dicky

[@jamo5468]

Such a shame the Woke Cancel culture has targeted Chris Lilley's brilliant characters. In the past we all use to laugh at each other and we embraced our multi cultural society and celebrated what we all brought to the table so to speak but sadly a few people were offended and so like many shows it was cancelled.
