What are you thinking Microsoft?

The new Seinfeld-Microsoft ad has debuted on YouTube and my thoughts are......[insert drumroll].....

What is Microsoft thinking? This commercial doesn't make sense. Are they selling shoes? I don't get it. I expected more from Seinfeld and Crispin Porter. I don't even know what to say.

Seinfeld + Microsoft = Fail.


Maybe this advertisement is an outlier. Maybe I will be proven wrong. We'll see with the next few ads. Microsoft has spent $10 million on Seinfeld for a few commericals. What they got in return was a massive load of negative publicity with the new ad.
