teaser
It could also be "teaser", although "trailer" and "teaser" are mostly used for films in theaters, and not for TV. I think "preview" may work best for a TV show.

Trailer (movie)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.
Theatrical trailers are film advertisements for films that will be exhibited in the future at a cinema, on whose screen they are shown; they are commonly known as previews of coming attractions. The term "trailer" comes from their having originally been shown at the end of a film programme. Although that practice did not last long, due to patrons tending to leave the theater after the films proper were finished, the name has stuck. Trailers have since been shown before the film (or the a-film in a double-bill programme) begins.
Trailers normally consist of a series of selected shots from the film being advertised. Since the purpose of the trailer is to attract an audience to the film being advertised, they usually drawn from the most exciting, funny, or otherwise noteworthy parts of the film but in abbreviated form and without producing spoilers.

Teaser trailer
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.
A teaser trailer is a truncated version of a theatrical trailer intended to entice the audience about an upcoming movie and to begin hype on major films.
Teaser trailers, unlike the typical theatrical trailer, are usually very short in length, usually under 30 seconds. The purpose of the teaser trailer is not to show a bunch of out-of-context clips in order to give the audience an understanding about the movie's plot or theme, but rather to let them know that the movie is coming up in the near future, and to add to the hype of the upcoming movie event. Teaser trailers are often made while the film is still in production or being edited and as a result they may feature scenes or alternate versions of scenes that are not in the finished film. Teaser trailers today are increasingly focused on internet downloading and the convention circuit.
Teaser trailers are usually only made for big-budget and popularly themed movies.

: Teaser is for TV, too--and this is exactly what I thought of. See http://www.museum.tv/archives/etv/T/htmlT/teaser/teaser.htm
