After airing only two commercials, Microsoft has canceled the new Gates/Seinfeld Ads. If you are wondering why they would do such a thing, you most have not seen them so I posted them below.
Seinfeld apparently had a contract which paid him 10 million dollars for the Ads. 10 MILLION DOLLARS!!!! That’s just ridiculous. I know Microsoft is a multi-billion dollar company and all, but you think they would look into things a bit better and do a little more research before throwing money out the window. Somebody had to of read the script for these commercial and thought “Hey these suck!”. I would figure Bill himself would be a little smarter than to have even done them. But maybe he just really wanted to be on TV with Jerry.
I guess either way we can now celebrate the fact that they are over and we wont ever have to sit through another one. Or at least we hope we wont.
