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 Dec. 19.

A Hallmark Channel spot for The Christmas House 2: Deck Those Halls is No. 1 — the third week in a row the network tops our chart to promote one of its original holiday movies. Hallmark Channel also grabs fourth place to celebrate ’Tis the Season To Be Merry.

Meanwhile, NFL Network hypes NFL Football in second place, and Paramount Network gives some love to Yellowstone in fifth. The only traditional broadcaster in our top five, NBC, promotes its new sitcom Grand Crew in third place.

Notably, the Yellowstone spot has the week’s highest iSpot Attention Index (125), 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).
