He's Probably Not Their Audience
In a segment that borders on incoherent, Rooney discovers that women's magazines contain pictures of women. He takes the opportunity to make comments that come off all the creepier for his deadpan delivery. "I don't know whether women look at pictures of women as much as men do. I like to look at them once in a while," he says. Then, arriving at a photo depicting a pair of striking blondes in a series titled "Working Girls," he suggests, "Imagine these two coming in in the morning and saying, 'Hi, Andy. We've been assigned to work with you.'" Pass.
Best line: "I like advertising. And I think a lot of it's very good. But I always wonder whether good advertising sells any more stuff than bad or mediocre advertising. I hope so."
