National Geographic Gives ‘Mars’ TV’s Biggest Promo Push for the Second Week in a Row

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 seven-day period through Nov. 11).

On the strength of 339.5 million TV ad impressions, a promo for Mars, the new season of National Geographic’s “global event series,” tops our chart for the second week in a row. Food Network also repeats with Holiday Baking Championship at No. 2, while Fox promotes Thursday Night Football in third place.

Two fresh additions close out the chart: promos for the 2018 CMA Awards from ABC and the 2018 E! People's Choice Awards.
