@rms1954 Just saw that obnoxious old bat. Love the mute button. Then I changed channels. Whoever thought she was a good person to advertise this must have been drunk!

Not a good reflection of "seniors"...

I never saw any commercials with "Martha", so I don't know who she is. I see plenty of other Medicare commercials but none with Martha. Maybe she doesn't advertise in my area. It doesn't sound like I'm missing anything.

If you want to see something hilarious, check out her "Christmas Special SNL" skit, where she is teaching baking or crafts to the local Boy Scout troop topless! LOL

@LTT1

I found one skit with Martha Stewart but not for the Medicare commerical Martha....!!

And the Martha Stewart one only runs for about 1 second before it's cut off!!

But the idea is hilarious ( of the Medicare Martha doing that!!!!)

I just saw Martha for Medicare today for the first time this season, quickly changed the channel! Host Martha Khlopin has produced the show for 8 years and is a popular, in-demand Medicare expert. As a Medicare educator and radio host, it's my passion to keep up with changes that impact Medicare beneficiaries.

It was not for Medicare...it was for "Saturday Night Live"!

Medicare sure dropped the ball when they agreed to this commercial!! Martha is such a grouchy, old bat...can't stand to watch her!

I talk back to her. It's going to be a long couple of months for my DH listening to me back talking Martha.

I cannot believe that woman would agree to do such a repulsive commercial.

Who would want to be remembered as "Martha"???

Is Martha the best Medicare can do. I also find the commercials annoying. So much for breaking the stereotype that the elderly are dense.

So apparently the best way to persuade older people to check medicare options is to show how stupid older people are and how they need these medicare "counselors" to explain things to them - over and over. Right.

I googled it but only find Martha advertising for Advantage plans, not Medicare. What I saw for the Advantage plans would not make me want one!

@Teddixat

Sounds interesting. What has she accomplished? I am not familiar with this actress at all.

Is this a new Martha commercial this year? She doesn't seem as mean as she was last year.😄

I find the announcer more obnoxious than Martha. She doesn't want to call--leave her alone and quit berating her! 😆
