CBS’ 2026 American Music Awards, which aired on Memorial Day, tops the Promo Mojo ranker for the week ended May 24, making it TV’s most promoted programming for a second week in a row. The broadcaster also gives some love to Marshals in third place.

The rest of the ranking is rounded out by cable networks, with Fox News promoting its news coverage in second place; TNT hyping 2026 Roland-Garros Tennis in fourth, and CNN promoting new series Craig Ferguson: American on Purpose in fifth.

Notably, Craig Ferguson: American on Purpose, scores the highest iSpot Attention Index (126) 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).
