Synopsis

The Mole has had five seasons of its Australian version, with the latter two taking place overseas in New Caledonia and New Zealand respectively. It is a reality television program with a twist. Not only does it not contain a public vote, but one of the 'contestents' on the show is trying to do everything in his or her power to prevent the others from winning the money on offer. It is up to the real contestents to work out who this person is, and the one who knows the least about their identity, as calculated through a computer quiz, is eliminated from the show. But who is this traitor? Who is the saboteur? Who is the mole?

Perry Kate Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!
Sarentrol Masterful Cinema
ScoobyWell Great visuals, story delivers no surprises
Brainsbell The story-telling is good with flashbacks.The film is both funny and heartbreaking. You smile in a scene and get a soulcrushing revelation in the next.
rjvw "The Mole" is an original concept that came from the Dutch speaking side of Belgium! Premiered in 1999, the Belgian show called "De Mol" was an instant hit, won a prestige "Golden Rose" in Montreaux and was sold to a lot of countries including the Netherlands, Germany, Australia and of course the US.Some guy mentioned that this was a total ripoff of "Survivor". But perhaps this guy should get his facts straight. Survivor premiered in 2000, the Belgian "De Mol" premiered in 1999! Almost every reallife show is not originally from the States! Like Big Brother and the new show The Phone are originally Dutch TV-shows.Anyway, "The Mole" is a terrific show, where audiences and viewers worldwide are challenged to think along with the show, to anticipate with what is coming next and therefore The Mole is a fantastic TV-show. In The Netherlands we've had 4 seasons with unknown competitors and 4 seasons with famous Dutch people. It is my opinion that the best "The Mole" seasons are always with famous persons.
tfrizzell Yet another reality show that tries to capitalize on the CBS giant "Survivor". ABC's "The Mole" is a would-be high-tech James Bond-styled program that puts a group of morons together. What the group tries to figure out is which of their contemporaries is really a sabotage artist who is hired by the producers. The last civilian standing is of course the winner. Amazingly, "The Mole" had a minimum bit of success in the early 2000s in the ratings game. Of course critically it has always been a disgusting rodent. Celebrity editions and innovative scheduling kept the idea running longer than experts expected. Mercifully, "The Mole" was put to sleep in 2004 by the network. Let us hope there is no resurrection. 2 stars out of 5.
David_Niemann "The Mole" is my favourite 'reality' television show, along with "The Amazing Race".The show's format consists of around ten contestants who compete in a series of challenges, both physically and mentally straining. If the group succeed they win money. But there is one catch, among the group is a player deliberately sabotaging the challenges so that the group get less money. That person is the mole.Unlike other 'reality' television shows such as Big Brother and Survivor, where people are voted off, this show rewards good thinking. At the end of the show each of the contestants must answer a series of questions relating to who they think is the mole. The person that is least right is eliminated. In the end there are only three people left: the mole, the winner and a loser. The final episode is always very tense and exciting.This show is so captivating. Once you've seen one episode you're hooked. One hour a week isn't enough!The show's host, Grant Bowler, is wonderful. He is sympathetic to the losing contestants and he has a devilishly fun side to him. But he always remains smooth, calm and relaxed."The Mole" is one of the best shows on television. I love it!
$TEVE McD The Mole leaves other "reality shows" like Survivor or Big Brother for dead.With its highly addictive combination of mystery, excitement, and viewer involvement in trying to figure out who is trying to sabotage all the missions, it's not to be missed.The missions are elaborate and very clever, and it's almost too long to have to wait between each weekly episode!The second last episode, in which the mole was finally revealed, and so was the winner and loser, and the final episode, where all of the mole's sabotage techniques were revealed, were simply brilliant.This really shows what monotonous viewing Survivor and Big Brother are.
