Promo Mojo: Joshua Jackson’s ‘Doctor Odyssey’ Tops Fall Marketing Push
INTROSTORYGALLERYCREDITS
ABC, NBC, Fox, CBS all make list as they debut new fall fare.

ABC’s new medical drama Doctor Odyssey – a sort of Love Boat meets Grey’s Anatomy from uber-producer Ryan Murphy – tops the Promo Mojo ranker for the week ended September 29, making it TV’s most promoted show. 

Traditional broadcast networks sweep the top five, with ABC joined by NBC, which hypes The Voice in second place and its new Zachary Quinto drama Brilliant Minds in fourth; CBS, which elevates new reality competition The Summit to third; and Fox, which gets moving with new action drama Rescue: HI-Surf in fifth.

Notably, The Summit scores the highest iSpot Attention Index (113) 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 G.E.M.A. has partnered with iSpot.tv on weekly chart Promo Mojo, offering data revealing the week’s most-promoted programming ranked by TV ad impressions.
