Every weekday we bring you the Ad Age/iSpot Hot Spots, new TV commercials tracked by iSpot.tv, the real-time TV ad measurement company with attention and conversion analytics from more than eight million smart TVs. The ads here ran on national TV for the first time yesterday.
A few highlights: Kenny Loggins' "I'm Alright" serves as the soundtrack of a Walmart ad that shows a customer happily navigating the retailer's aisles by using the Walmart app's map feature, rebuffing offers of help from store associates along the way. Kohl's promotes its current 50-percent-off sale (today through Sunday) on "hundreds of select items," including bedding and sleepwear. And Taco Bell hypes its "Steal a Base, Steal a Taco" taco-giveaway promotion tied to the World Series.
Premiered on: Homicide Hunter: Lt. Joe Kenda, Investigation Discovery

TV Impressions - Total TV ad impressions delivered for the brand or spot.
Est. TV Spend - Amount spent on TV airings for the brand's spots.
Attention Score - Measures the propensity of consumers to interrupt an ad play on TV. The higher the score, the more complete views. Actions that interrupt an ad play include changing the channel, pulling up the guide, fast-forwarding or turning off the TV.
Attention Index - Represents the Attention of a specific creative or program placement vs the average. The average is represented by a score of 100, and the total index range is from 0 through 200. For example, an attention index of 125 means that there are 25% fewer interrupted ad plays compared to the average.
