HGTV’s new celebrity home renovation competition Totally ’90s House tops the Promo Mojo ranker for the week ended August 16, making it TV’s most promoted show.
USA is joined on the list by three fellow cable networks: CNN with new docuseries Decades in Sports in second place; USA Network with new crime drama Anna Pigeonin third; and Discovery with the latest season of paranormal reality series Expedition X in fifth.
Rounding out the top five is CBS comes in fourth with upcoming Silicon Valley legal drama Cupertino starring Mike Colter.
Notably, Decades in Sports scores the highest iSpot Attention Index (133) 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).
Spotlight by GEMA partners with iSpot on weekly chart Promo Mojo, offering data revealing the week’s most-promoted programming ranked by TV ad impressions.
