Fox Gives ‘Friday Night SmackDown’ TV’s Biggest Promo Push

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. These are the shows networks have been promoting most heavily to drive tune-in (our data covers the seven-day period through Oct. 6).

On the strength of 400.5 million TV ad impressions, Fox’s Friday Night SmackDown is the most-promoted show in our ranking — and the network also grabs third place for Prodigal Son and fourth for The Masked Singer.

ABC snags second place for its Tiffany Haddish-hosted reboot Kids Say the Darndest Things, and for the first time in three weeks a cable network lands in our top five, with AMC hyping the return of The Walking Dead at No. 5.
