NBC Gives the Winter Olympics TV’s Biggest Promo Push for a Second Week in a Row
And more from Promo Mojo, our exclusive weekly ranking of the programming networks are promoting most heavily
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 January 23.
Various athlete-centric NBC promos for the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics top the chart (the example shown here focuses on American snowboarder Shaun White) — the second week in a row at No. 1 for the Winter Games.
Once again, traditional broadcasters have the edge, with NBC joined by ABC, which promotes new family drama Promised Land in second place, and CBS, which promotes crime procedural NCIS: Hawai’i in fourth and sitcom Ghosts in fifth.
Rounding out the ranking: TNT, which hypes the third season of its post-apocalyptic drama Snowpiercer in third place.
