Qui est la taupe?

The second season of this show is undeniably better than the first. I hated the way the mole played in that one but this one was genius!!! I really hope they keep changing the location. I find that to be a really enjoyable part of the show!

The cast is awesome and everyone is deceitful and selfish which makes it incredibly hard but fun to guess who the Mole is! Your guess will probably change after every episode with the way these challenges go 🤣

What a fun show. I'm so happy that Netflix did a reboot of this. I never knew how much I missed this until I saw it on Netflix! Can't wait till the next season to see where they play next!

No one saying "Who is...the Mole?"

It's okay. But missing some of the elements that made the first ones so great. A better host to amp the suspense. Where are their handy dandy little notebooks they were always writing in?! I remember them always writing notes in their little notebooks. Also the phones instead of a big screen is a bad choice. The huge screen was fun to see turn color.

Overall I am glad it is back. But don't ditch the things that made it so good the first time.

I really miss Anderson Cooper, though I get her has other things to do. But the host could really do a better job of saying things to build suspense, etc.

I love nearly all competition reality shows including previous versions of The Mole and I'm usually an easy audience. I also worked for years as a reality tv and game show producer. With that said, this show is disappointing to me for two main reason.

First, it's an unusually unlikable cast. I'm struggling to find anyone to root for. The only person I like is the host.

Second, nearly all commentary throughout the show are just contestants accusing each other of being the mole for any reason. This would be fine if it felt sincere, but it doesn't. It's like the producers decided that constant, empty, accusations without substance would be an easy way to produce the show. It's exceptionally hollow...even by reality show standards.

I REALLY wanted to like this.

I am a huge fan of the original series: The mole Belgium (De Mol), that is running since 1998 and has 10 seasons and more to come.

Also I like the Dutch version (with celebrities), Wie is de mol? Which has done 20+ seasons.

Now I am enjoying this Netflix version set in beautiful Australia. The landscapes and locations are great, the group not so much. They are a bit to sporty, goodlooking and "in to it" for my taste. I would have loved a more diverse group, different body types etc.

The games and missions look very familiar is you're a The Mole Belgium fan, a lot is copied from season 9, which was set in Germany.

The part that's missing for me is the interaction between the contestants on location, that is we're the original series is so strong, you really live with the kandidates and can do your own mole search.

Let me start off by saying that the show has a great hook and I enjoyed it quite a bit.

My problem came around half way through when I realized that the mole didn't really have a role. The mole can't be eliminated, the mole can't win, and the mole doesn't have to sabotage because 1. They gain nothing from it and 2. Everyone else is already busy sabotaging to draw attention to themselves. There's no point keeping track of who might have sabotaged consistently because the motives are all wrong.

The most frustrating thing is that the mole literally CANNOT win or lose, NOTHING is at stake. Someone is just going to walk away with a bunch of money at the end.

Lastly, I wish they would show more of the conversations between the characters so that we as viewers can feel closer to them and develop favorites etc. Nothing is at stake for the viewers either, because we don't get to care about the characters.
