| | Andy Rooney |
 | | Andy Rooney is the gray-haired, enormous-eyebrowed fussbudget who gets a few minutes at the end of the top-rated 60 Minutes every week, and talks about his neckties, the old keys on his key ring, the clutter about his desk. |
 | | Younger and more impatient audiences find Rooney's meanderings quaint, tedious, or unintentionally amusing, and he has wasted an inordinate amount of network air time discussing such things as shoelaces, salad dressing, and how difficult it is to crack nuts with a nutcracker. |
 | | Rooney does, however, occasionally have something to say, and when he does, he can say it well. |
