The Mole

Fri May 23, 2008 12:42 am

Why was I not informed that they're bringing back The Mole? I rely on y'all to inform me of horribly important news such as this!

For those not familiar with the show (which is probably quite a lot of you, as it hasn't been on US TV in any form since 2004), players complete challenges in order to add money to the final prize pot. However, one of the players is a mole that the producers are paying to sabotage the other players. At the end of each episode, the players take a quiz over various things that happened that episode, and the last question asks who the Mole is. Whoever scores lowest on the quiz is eliminated.

I've said for years that this is the only reality show I'd willingly be on, and I'm so thrilled that it's back. I can't wait for June 2nd!

What channel is it on again? I'll actually have cable over the summer (yay for corporate-sponsored housing), but I don't want to get hooked and then miss out on the finale when I come back to Atlanta (I don't get CBS here). I loved the Mole! It's so much fun trying to figure out who it is...

Wow, I remember this show. I didn't really watch it, but I do remember one episode where the contestants had to spend the night in different rooms. One had a giant snake and in another, the song "Tiny Bubbles" kept playing over and over, but at different speeds and such. Mad.

It's on ABC. (I didn't know you lived in Atlanta! I go to school there. :) )

I love the little clues the producers hide in the episodes. I managed to figure out Frederique on Celebrity Mole: Hawaii with those, but normally I'm just guessing that random objects have deep secret meanings.

I've never figured it out from their little clues -- I usually never even notice them -- maybe I'll watch this seaon on-line so I can pause and rewind and search for them. Frederique was an awesome mole; I loved when she was suddenly like "no speak English" for one of the assignments (even though her English was nearly flawless). She acted so dumb that I figured she had to be the mole once she'd made it to the final 6; otherwise, she would have scored lowest on the test by then. The only other mole I figured out was the first one, and that wasn't until 2 of the other 3 in the final 4 suspected her as the mole. I love the show, but I think I'd be really bad on it. Maybe not, though, because in person I'm sure it's easier to read people.

I remember hosting a forum game based on this show (that wound up lasting several months because of my laziness). It's a cool show, and I can't wait for it to start again.

Their ad campaign was so weird. Just a second blip in front of another commercial or TV show. The first time I saw it I dreamed they were making the show again, and than I didn't know if I was imagining things or not. Oh Subliminal messages!

Oh gosh I only just remembered about this series when I saw this thread.

Didn't really watch it. Amazing Race for me!

Nicole's new nickname, for anyone who's still watching, is Omarosa Lite. You can thank my paper for that one.

(I think ^'s the Mole, by the way)
