B&C has partnered with attention and conversion analytics company 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 June 4).
On the strength of 162.5 million TV ad impressions for promos leading up to its June 11 premiere, TNT’s new dark comedy-drama Claws again takes our No. 1 spot, having previously topped our May 15-21 chart. TNT also makes an appearance in our chart at No. 3 with returning drama Animal Kingdom.
Three more cable nets helping to shut broadcasters out of our top 5 (a rare occurrence): AMC at No. 2 with hit zombie franchise extension Fear the Walking Dead; HGTV at No. 4 with its mother-daughter home renovation show Good Bones, now in its second season; and Food Network at No. 5 with Food Network Star, now in its 13th season.
