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 TV’s most-promoted programming ranked by ad impressions. Our data covers the seven-day period through June 12.
The Old Man, FX’s new spy thriller starring Jeff Bridges, tops the list, making it TV’s most promoted show.
Cable networks dominate the list overall, with FX joined by HGTV, which builds excitement for the second season of Bargain Block in second place; Food Network, which gives some love to the 15th season of The Great Food Truck Race in third; and TNT, which hypes the final season of crime drama Animal Kingdom in fifth.
CBS, the sole traditional broadcaster to make the cut, takes fourth place for the 2022 Tony Awards, which aired Sunday night.
Notably, the Tonys telecast scores the week’s highest iSpot Attention Index (116), meaning viewers were on average highly likely to watch its promos all the way through (vs. interrupting viewing by changing the channel, pulling up the guide, fast-forwarding or turning off the TV).
