Medicare ads!!!!!

Can anyone tell me why we are suffering thru these unending Medicare advantage ads? I thought they would stop after open enrollment but I was wrong.
  • I see most of these commercials on the channels catering to old people like me. 10,000 people turn 65 every day, many of them watch the oldies channels.

    You didn't have to call us "old people." Experienced or seasoned persons would have been preferable. :)
    Well, you can be "old" or "dead". Not many other choices. :) What I hate is the stupid "I'm 70 years young". Geeze.
  • Without telling you which network I usually watch, :W I am sick of the "My Pillow" ads that come on every few minutes all day long! :M

  • Seems like they have been replaced with endless Liberty Mutual/State Farm/Allstate ads in the Portland Area.

  • They want healthy people to sign up so the advantage plans can make more money and they can spend more on ads. The lure of 0 premium attracts until they become sick. IMHO but have a friend paying co-pays out of the yang yang now due to his health. Disgusting!
  • i have not seen any in detroit or seattle...they should have ended this year.

    maybe it is to fill space on the tv
  • Because some Americans can still enroll. There’s big money involved.
