There was a good joke in it I admit.
When the pizza guy mistakes Seinfeld for one of the world's greatest comedians.

I nearly :lol:

Yes, yes. Much better than the shoe commercial. "Okay, power down" got me at the end. I can see how it's 4:30 long or whatever, but with this material, they could've come up with a much better commercial than what they released. I mean, the old 70's mugshot of Gates was a slick addition, but that's about it.

Like 'em or not, they are ending.

Quote:

Microsoft is preparing to pull its TV ads featuring comedian Jerry Seinfeld and Microsoft's co-founder and chairman Bill Gates.

Microsoft spokesman Frank Shaw said the end of the Seinfeld ads was planned well in advance, and wasn't coming in response to any criticism of the spots. "All along we said we were having a teaser campaign," he said. "We're getting ready to start the second phase. This was the plan all along."

Not so sure I believe that, but if its true then Phase 2 cannot be any worse than phase 1. They certainly have a great deal of room for improvement.

Sounds like the next ad might be better.
