Has anybody found any clues in the first episode?

I'm not sure they're having clues. There was a conspicuous lack of someone saying "look for the clues to the identity of the Mole in this week's episode". I wonder if they're not having them for this celebrity version...?

Possibly, but I think it takes something out of the game if they don't have clues in the episode.

Picked up a rumor off another site -- I don't tape the show - so I can't verify:

The mole is

Boatman....in the first episode letters were at the end of
the palyers name and they unscramble to say BOATMAN.

Who is Boatman? I don't know the names of some of them.

i also did an anagram thingie on michael boatman and got
"ABC mole man on HI" or something like that. i posted it on another topic here.
michael boatman is the black gentleman who played the gay character on "spin city".

Boatman is Michael Boatman of Spin City/Arliss.

I got the impression that he was the Mole after the first 2 episodes without spoilage of any kind.

My other candidate is Kathy Griffin. But who knows? I just hope Frederique sticks around for a while.

Okay, there's a great clue as to who the celebrity Mole is over at FindTheMole.com. Looks like Boatman IS The Celebrity Mole.

The clue is the way their names unscrambled at the beginning of the series. The last letter unscrambled in each name as they do their talks to the camera are the letters BOATMAN. Not in that order, though, you have to unscramble them. I don't have my tape from the first ep, so I can't personally confirm this, but this same clue has shown up at the ABC Celebrity Mole boards from a 2nd source. Kinda spoils things that he was so obvious in ep. 2. Not a very good player, I'd say. Ah well, we get the real thing back this summer.

tonite there was also corbin's take on boatman with the money signs... but then again, he's gone!
I wish i knew whether there are supposed to be clues or not! either for the players or for us...
i havent been to the official site.. is there anything at all there that alludes to the existence of clues?

almost everyone puts one slash through the "S" of a dollar sign. i put 2 because that is what the nuns taught us, but most people i know put only one...so why would arli$$ be a sign?

Misled! Boatman gone, so he's no mole. I'm actually happy at this development. I was sure he was the mole, and now I can get back into the show again for the last little bit.

Dang Nicole...I am so glad you posted this. In my pre-Survivor frenzy I totally forgot this show isn't over.

I still think Kathy is the Mole and she wins her own sitcom from this.

I wasn't really sure that there were any clues this season, but I was apparently wrong. According to the ABC Mole website (in the preview for the finale) "See the hidden clues and the untold behind-the-scenes stories. " They should have told us sooner!

As far as Kathy's initials are concerned, maybe that is a hint. Then again, maybe it was predetermined that a particular clue would be given to a particular person so that the initials separated them. Of course in that case the other two clues should have had some initials.... good catch Nicole.

I am delighted that the clues were just that - clues, instead of HUGE NEON SIGNS, indicating the Mole!!

cba79- exactly! i dont know why they didnt tell us sooner! then we couldve gone berserk like Corbin...
I am also glad, like Tntitanfan that the clues werent so obvious this time. It was much more fun being totally wrong this time, than last time when I knew the Mole and guessed the winner...

Is it just me or were most of those clues impossible to spot!

It's just you..

I only saw and thought about the "Freddy in the helicopter" one, the rest, I didn't catch at all...

At least they were blatant like the Mole 2

They always go one way or the another! Season 2's clues were in your face, it almost felt like the Celebrity Mole's clues were made up afterwards! The worst was the red, white and blue items on the beach, there (allegedly) because Freddie's home country has a red, white and blue flag. Errrr, don't the others have a red white and blue flag too?!! But at least they didn't give the game away like last time, I'd rather they were impossible than obvious.

Oh I thought the clues were great this year, nothing like the so obvious "The Mole is Bill" telegram or the so obscure "eating an apple = Washington state = Bill".

I actually thought the flag clue was halfway decent. The three items were long solid stripes, much like the Netherlands flag on its side. The clue in the refrigerator was excellent.

Could someone describe to me the obvious clues in Mole 2? I didn't stay interested long enough to watch it. Didn't help that they kept juggling it around in the viewing schedule.

The real killer clues in Mole 2 were the ones put into the opening titles. One said something simple like "Admiral" (Bill was an Admiral), then later didn't one say something very explicit like "Bill is the Mole"? Not sure if I imagined that or if it happened!! There was also a closeup on a telegram that the group received, and when you translated the numbers on that (using the number groupings from the phone) it said "THE MOLE IS 00BILL00". I thought that was pretty clever actually, but coupled with the others it really gave the game away.

Plus in my opinion Bill was a pretty easy Mole to spot.
