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 Nov. 21.
Hallmark Channel dominates our ranking, grabbing first place to promote its original movie A Kiss Before Christmas, plus fourth for The Christmas Contest and fifth for A Christmas Together With You.
Rounding out the chart are two traditional broadcasters: ABC, which promotes the 2021 American Music Awards (which aired Sunday night) in second place, and Fox, which hypes college football in third.
Notably, the 2021 American Music Awards spot has the week’s highest iSpot Attention Index (117), meaning viewers were on average highly likely to watch it all the way through (vs. interrupting it by changing the channel, pulling up the guide, fast-forwarding or turning off the TV).
