Phil is all about mud, worms, boogies, and pretty much anything gross. If he isn't playing in the mud with his twin sister Lil, or searching for delicious bugs, he's off on an adventure with Tommy and the gang. Phil is fearless and always ready for action...as long as he doesn't get distracted by something icky.

Lil loves hanging out with her twin brother, Phil. Whether they're digging for worms or looking for Reptar, the twins are pretty much inseparable.

Phillip "Phil" and Lillian Marie Jill "Lil" DeVille are a pair of twins from the Nickelodeon animated series Rugrats and its spin-off All Grown Up! Frequently joining Tommy Pickles on his adventures, Phil and Lil were near-identical in both appearance and personality in the original series, to the point that even their parents had a tendency to mistake one for the other. They were often seen eating bugs and worms, and like all brothers and sisters, frequently get into pretty cranky arguments, in which they often address each other by their full first names. In All Grown Up! (which takes place approximately ten years after the events of Rugrats), the twins evolved into two distinctly different characters; while Phil still enjoys repulsive objects, Lil has taken an interest in sports, particularly soccer.

Rugrats

Phil and Lil Gift of the Magi

Phil and Lil exchanging gifts at the end of "The Santa Experience".

In the first Rugrats Christmas episode, "The Santa Experience", Phil and Lil have a subplot inspired by The Gift of the Magi, in which both of them are trying to find a good gift for the other. Angelica offers to give Phil a box of crayons in exchange for his Reptar doll, so he can give the crayons to Lil as her Christmas gift. Lil then gives her coloring book to Angelica so that she can have a Reptar space helmet to give to Phil for Christmas. Angelica soon realizes, though, that she will likely be punished with coal from Santa as a result of this, and throughout the second half of the episode, Angelica tries to return Phil's Reptar doll and Lil's coloring book. In the end, Angelica finally does succeed in giving Phil and Lil their things back.

In the series' second Christmas episode, "Let It Snow", Phil, Lil and their friends mistakenly think that it is Christmas but believe that Santa Claus is not bringing any gifts because it is not snowing, so they try to make it snow.

In the series' third Christmas episode, "Babies in Toyland", Phil and Lil, along with the other Rugrats and their families, take a trip to the Christmasland park (designed by Tommy and Dil's dad). After Angelica ends up causing the man hired to play Santa to quit, Phil, Lil, and the other Rugrats venture across the park, believing that Santa left his presents for them at his workshop. When the Rugrats get caught in The Nutcracker animatronic show, Phil and Lil grab a shoe and a ribbon from a cardboard ballerina; they later present the shoe and the ribbon as a present to Baby Jesus in the Nativity display. Later, Angelica, having had a change of heart, presents Phil and Lil with a new pair of shoes and a magic princess wand, respectively.
