A thread for discussing the show but not speculating about clues or who the Mole may be.

Okay, I'll be the first to post in this empty thread. I convinced a friend to watch the show. She was very turned off by the ads for the Mole. I think she didn't like all the "I'm the mole, no, I'm the mole" stuff in the ads. She thought it would be more like Fear Factor. So, I think she was pleasantly surprised! I hope more people give this show a chance. If every survivor and Amazing race fan would tune in just twice, I think they'd be hooked.

All these threads frighten and confuse me.

I agree Brenda - I'm trying to talk more people into watching this show, as I think they'll really like it. I was even pleasantly surprised to find I liked the new host, and I was NOT expecting that since I was a huge Anderson Cooper fan. (Sorry Lexie - I truly didn't mean to create a multi-legged monster, just two threads so I didn't see "clues" - I like being surprised at the end as to who the mole is. )

Maybe we need another thread for anyone who is afraid of too many threads? Seriously, if in doubt, Lexie, just post in the original thread. That is kind of a catch all thread for everything except true spoilers. The most important thing is that we all have fun discussing the show! Speaking of which, I'm going to do my best to promote the show whenever I can. I'm happy to see this area getting so much discussion. Even if it is a bit off-topic for now about threads it still may lead other people to take a peek at the show. I must admit I'm pretty disappointed that ABC put it at 10:00. It is a great show for everyone and I'm sorry that they didn't give it an earlier time slot.

well now that its summer, dd stays up (of course for us Central time zoners, its 9pm) and we did enjoy it - I'm spreading the word too!! I understand the wanting for a non spoiler thread Teach, but keep in mind that the Mole has many many red herrings as well - so anything discussed is speculation I am assuming anyway... (ok, dont remind me about assuming!! ;) )

Of course, this isn't just a non-spoiler thread. It is also a non-speculation thread. That's great that it's on at 9pm in your area, Reader. Are all the shows one hour ahead? The red herrings thing is something that confused me in the first episode of the first season. At first I didn't clue into the idea that the non-moles might deliberately try to appear mole like.

Once again, I made perfect sense in my mind!! Thanks Jimmer - I was trying to agree with Teach and reassure her that just because some random sighting that to me looks "clue - like" it in reality at the end of the show was a red herring - so I was trying to post that nothing I post is a spoiler, in my mind its all speculation - and as such I totally and completely agree this is a non spoiler non spec thread!! TORNADO Drill going off AACK

Thanks for all the effort to please us viewers, Jimmer - the threads are fantastic, and I truly appreciate being able to discuss the show w/out worrying about whether it's a clue, red-herring or whatever!

I missed last week's premiere episode, but am very much looking forward to getting caught up tonight not that the hockey season is over. I've got my fingers crossed that there is a great cast. I think the success of any reality show depends greatly on the casting. Just give us some likeable folks! Please!

Not sure but the episode may be up on abc (link is provided above the 'cast') and you can go to the Fort to get written recaps - and funny takes on the episode by great writers... (reminds me of Bunny's Tales from Big Brother, but not really!!!) http://www.fansofrealitytv.com/forums/mole/ read the first 2 that are sticky'd One is a recap, but does have opinions, the other is "Smack a mole" and is more humorous... but not sure if you would consider any of those writings having speculation in them or not - so I'd read the first one - since there isnt any more new info from when we split the folders here... Mary - wont be long till they're out on the ice again!! Hope they do an outdoor game here in Chicago!!

Seriously, they have GOT to move this show to 8 o'clock. I completely forgot it was on and only caught the last 15 minutes. Why is this show on so late anyway? It's not like it contains objectionable material, does it?

ABC is just clueless when it comes to this show. It never gets the ratings it should, why cant they figure out to put it on earlier?? Maybe after that date show is over

I'm not in love with the cast this time.. Hopefully some will grow on me soon. I would also think they'd put The Mole at 8, followed by The Bachelorette but maybe they thought people would be more used to watching Bachelor type progs and stay for The Mole. No difference to me since I record and watch both of them.

I think the show's hiatus has harmed it.

It looks like we have 2 villians this season! And I liked it when villian #1 said to villian #2 that she would kill him in his sleep and that he'd wake up dead. LOL. I can't find anyone I'm rooting for, yet. But I expect the cast to grow on me a bit.

Tv ratings for Monday night At 10 p.m., CBS' "CSI: Miami" posted a 5.9/10 to beat out "Nashville Star," which ticked up to 4.4/8. "The Mole" came in at 2.7/5 for ABC. Link http://www.zap2it.com/tv/ratings/zap-ratings060908,0,2843278.story I don't really know what that means but I thought I'd post it. Hopefully some one else know what it means. Anyone?

knowing ABC (Already Been Cancelled) it means the could cancel The Mole and never show us the ending.

in reading the forums at zap2it, they don't sound very optimistic.. this is my first time watching it, and I'm finding it incredibly boring - but I'll keep watching it with the hope that it gets better

TVWatcher - have you checked out the clues and speculation threads? Those are for me what add continued interest to what we see on the show.
