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: Kohl's thinks you should "Get to Kohl's to refresh your family essentials"—including Nike hoodies and small kitchen appliances from Hamilton Beach. Major League Baseball serves up a 30-second ad for, basically, Enrique Hernández of the Los Angeles Dodgers. And Allstate pays tribute to the residents of the Carolinas following Hurricane Florence in a spot that focuses on Angel Oak, a famous old tree on Johns Island, South Carolina "that stands for the resilience within us all."
Attention Index: 142 (42% fewer interruptions than avg.)
