The Mole premieres tonight. Anyone planning on watching? I loved the previous Moles and am hoping it won't be changed too much, but then "smart" tv doesn't survive long does it?

Its a Reality Television show on ABC. Ten people perform tasks to try to earn money. But one of the players is a mole and tries to disrupt the winnings. The other players try to figure out who the mole is...each week the show ends with a quiz and an someone leaving the show. More details on abc.com

I loved the first season, and caught a couple episodes of the celebrity version on rerun, which weren't very good. I'm very excited to see it back, though I forgot it's tonight. Thanks for the reminder!

Wouldn't the silky fur and front feet well adapted for digging kind of give it away?

The original version was "The Porcupine", but after the first few contestents left the show with quills stuck in their skin, that kind of squelched that idea.
They briefly toyed with "The Skunk" as well, but quickly agreed that wasn't going to work, as all the contestants were TRYING to get sent home, just to get away from the stench.

I just caught the second episode. I suspect that Bobby may be the mole. If not, then he's a horrible player and a very unlikeable person.

I assume the mole can't be eliminated, even if they were eligible to be, the person who gets eliminated is the person who answered the least amount of questions about the mole correctly. You would think that the mole would know the answers to these questions.

Seems like the show would be pretty silly if the Mole got kicked off the second episode.
Since the mole knows who he or she is, they can do pretty good at answering the questions. But I don't think the mole is ever able to be eliminated. My guess is they could totally do the quiz wrong and still not be eliminated!
