HGTV’s home renovation competition Rock the Block, hosted by Ty Pennington, tops the Promo Mojo ranker for the week ended April 6, making it TV’s most-promoted program.

HGTV is joined by three fellow cable networks: TBS, which hypes comedy-drama Hacks in third place; CNN, which gives some love to its new original travel and food series Eva Longoria: Searching for Spain (a successor to Eva Longoria: Searching for Mexico) in fourth; and Fox News, which serves up a general promo for its news coverage in fifth.

The sole traditional broadcaster on the list: CBS, which promotes action drama Fire Country in second place.

Notably, Fox News scores the highest iSpot Attention Index (154) in the ranking, meaning viewers were on average highly likely to watch its news 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 has partnered with iSpot.tv on weekly chart Promo Mojo, offering data revealing the week’s most-promoted programming ranked by TV ad impressions.
