Promo Mojo: Football Takes Over as Fall Sets In
INTROSTORYGALLERYCREDITS
NBC takes first with college ball and fifth with the NFL as everyone returns to the gridiron.

It’s almost fall, y’all, and football is back. NBC’s College Football tops the Promo Mojo ranker for the week ended September 1, making college ball TV’s most promoted programming. The network also grabs fifth place to hype NFL Football.

NBC is joined by fellow traditional broadcast network ABC, which gives some love to its new crime dramedy High Potential in fourth place.

Rounding out the chart are MTV, which drums up excitement for the 2024 MTV Video Music Awards — set to air Sept. 11 — in second place, and Fox News, which promotes its continuing Democracy ’24 political campaign coverage in third.

Notably, Democracy ’24 scores the highest iSpot Attention Index (137) 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 Broadcasting & Cable and iSpot.tv on weekly chart Promo Mojo, offering data revealing the week’s most-promoted programming ranked by TV ad impressions.
