Cellphones. We can't live without them, but do we have to use them all the time? Proper Ollie doesn't think so. Listen up and power down as he lays out what is and isn't appropriate when it comes to using your "mobile".
How about a video on Commenting Online? It owuld be kind of in the same vien as the social networking one but with less of a focus on "Friends" and more of a focus on conversations. This could include; commenting on videos, blogs, and discussion boards...
The oldest customer service rule ( and rule of eitquette with people in general) is to pay attention to the person who is with you/in front of you. Getting on your cell phone unless it is really urgent saying that the person your're with is not very important to you. Chatting in any performance regardless of whether ir is on screen or stage is just plain boorish. If the call is URGENT - leave the performance! Also just because we have two ears doesn't make us better - we still only have one brain and the frontal lobes take in the information that is the most important to you.
These are great! Much needed in today's congested society. Would love for you to do one on people who put their feet on the headrests in movie theaters!
This whole concept is great. Short, smart, well presented. The applications are countless as the potential topics- taxi cabs, subway monitors, airports, theatres, jumbo trons, iPods, kiosks, cell phones themselves, sporting events.... Proper Ollie could easily find himself as part of the English lexicon. Can't wait for more.
this is a smart, well written and totally refreshing new series - can't wait to see more. The direction is tight, the performances are deliciously understated - I am so, so impressed.
Death to Bluetooth. This is just an incredibly proper time to re-educate people on NOT having to walk around all wired up like they are members of the Borg. Not to mention that poor bird waiting through a romantic dinner for the chap to finish his call. Ollie deserves to pick her up himself after all his rudeness. Proper Ollie, you've done a fantastic job.
Thank god for people like you. If I see one more self-important poser wearing the "yeah I'm, totally rich and important, as you can see from blue tooth ear piece that I'm not using" I'm going to set buildings on fire.
Waitresses at this coffee shop confirm that these types tend to pay with a credit card, and therefore feel they needn't tip.
If there is one problem I see, its that the people who most need to see this will think that you are merely jealous of their sexy blue tooth ear piece (walmart, starting at 39.95).

Just a thought. :)
I think it's funny that the phone you used in the video does not support bluetooth. I also think it's sad that I know that.
Love the series!

JaBoom, thank you love. In fact, thank you all for your comments and support.
Now, start sending scenarios in which you think Americans needs some Proper Etiquette.

You, dear sir, are my new favorite friend. Please stay strong and spread "Proper"...Emily would be proud.
Okay. I confess. Now that someone has said something, I'll give up texting Google for phone numbers while driving.

Ollie strikes again!
Can we make this required viewing when you apply for a cell number?
Yeh, baby.
As far as I'm concerned, you could do your entire series on this subject alone.
I think I will send this to everyone on New Jersey frickin' Transit.

Rest assured riverstone the poor bird did not stick with him.

Cell phone or not, that is a totally handsome guy.
