Are we the generation of randomness and off-the-wallness in advertising?

I don't usually express too many negative views on media/advertising, but when I saw this, I had to. I'm not a fan of the weird/random/awkward art which has no story and nothing seems to happen for any particular reason. Sometimes it will mildly entertain us with it's strange juxtapositions and odd styling, but only because of it's novelty. And surely that novelty is just a fad. An example: most of what's on adult swim. Watch anything on adult swim, apart from Robot Chicken and Family Guy, and you'll see what I mean.

I think this commercial was trying to play into that trend; the awkward randomness, for lack of a better term. This is the first installment of a series of ads that Microsoft reportedly paid Jerry Seinfeld $10 million to be in.
