B&C has partnered with iSpot.tv to bring you a weekly chart we call Promo Mojo: Exclusive data showing the top five TV promos ranked by TV ad impressions. These are the shows networks have been promoting most heavily to drive tune-in (our data covers the 7-day period through Dec. 4).
After having been briefly deposed last week by http://www.broadcastingcable.com/articles-taging/foxFox’s Star, National Geographic's Marssurges back to the top on the strength of 298.8 million TV ad impressions for its promos, which means it’s held our No. 1 spot four out of the last five weeks.
New chart entrant The Mick (Fox) also overshadows Star, taking the No. 2 spot. And another chart newcomer, A Crime to Remember, which kicked off its fourth season on Investigation Discovery last night, edges out Incorporated, Syfy’s dystopian drama, which slips one spot down to No. 5.
