Chris Farley, pickup artist - VIDEO

In this video filmed for a Tom Arnold comedy special, Chris Farley tries to pick up women at a mall. It's classic Farley, with pratfalls and generally making an ass of himself. I'm surprised he had such problems picking up women.

The surprising thing to me was that this was filmed when Tom and Roseanne were still an item, so the marriage isn't yet revealed to be the sham it was. Buying Rosie a present? Puh-lease.

Farley also played Tom Arnold's brother on one of his Roseanne-sponsored short-lived TV sitcoms called Tom. This was a sitcom-within-a-sitcom. Arnold played a loony sitcom star. Obviously it was a beneficial relationship on both sides.

I'm not really familiar with "Tom," but I think you're thinking of "The Jackie Thomas Show" as the Tom Arnold sitcom within a sitcom (an unfairly maligned show, by the way, in my opinion).
