B&C has partnered with always-on TV ad measurement and attribution company iSpot.tv to bring you a weekly chart we call Promo Mojo: exclusive data showing the top five TV promos ranked by ad impressions. Our data covers the seven-day period through Oct. 18.
On the strength of just under 273 million TV ad impressions, a promo for Discovery’s Street Outlaws is No. 1. The series about street racing sets a competitive tone for our ranking, continued by promos for game show Supermarket Sweep (ABC) in second place, the 2020 CMT Music Awards (CMT) in third and The Voice (NBC) in fourth.
Disney Channel closes out the list with a general network promo celebrating Disney princesses. Notably, the Disney spot has the highest iSpot Attention Index (117) in our ranking, meaning viewers were on average highly likely to watch it all the way through (vs. interrupting it by changing the channel, pulling up the guide, fast-forwarding or turning off the TV).
