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 TV's most-promoted programming ranked by ad impressions. Our data covers the seven-day period through October 30.

Hallmark Channel's new original movie Jolly Good Christmas -- part of the network's "Countdown to Christmas" programming block -- is No. 1.

Paramount Network takes second place to promote the upcoming fifth season of Yellowstone. Traditional broadcast networks round out the ranking, with Fox hyping the eighth season of The Masked Singer in third, NBC giving some love to sitcoms Lopez vs. Lopez and Young Rock in fourth, and CBS promoting a new episode of Ghosts in fifth.

Notably, Jolly Good Christmas scores the highest iSpot Attention Index (116) in the ranking, meaning viewers were on average highly likely to watch its promos all the way through (vs. interrupting viewing by changing the channel, pulling up the guide, fast-forwarding or turning off the TV).
