Behind the Screen: The Mole - Netflix

For competitive reality TV fans, elimination order is the ultimate puzzle. Piecing together flight records, social media activity, and insider tips is a community-driven detective game.

The tension between wanting to know and wanting to be surprised is what makes spoiler discussion so addictive — it's speculation elevated to sport.

I think it's Ryan - no other person makes sense without it being obvious. and last season's wasnt obvious at allUnless its editing making us think its Ryan...

Oh I'm livid. I realized the cop was the mole when they emphasized Michael possibly getting a question wrong so I figured they needed a plot to explain the winner being decided by the quiz. But what threw me off was Muna being the one to get two questions wrong. This show is dumb bye.

It also annoys me greatly when people talk about how much the money would mean to them. If you're retired you aren't broke. If you're a software developer you aren't broke. If you go on an annual family vacation you probably aren't broke. These people fake crying over money they make in 365 days is eye roll worthy

That lil blond girl from season one is spilling tea on her TikTok. I guess nda already up. She said that the producers tell them all who is suspicious of them to avoid those players so that they are no longer suspicious.

One of the biggest things for me this season was them watching the audition tapes for 5k each and then lost like 50k from it, I honestly thought it was incredibly stupid on all their parts because they were draining the pot for potentially useless information. In fact I was thinking wouldn't have even watched it for free since all it's going to do is make you focus even more on that person and at that point it was like maybe a 15% chance it was the right person. Turns out I was half right, as everybody who watched a video that wasn't Shaun's went home, but also Michael & Muna both watched his and made it to the end, so it was obviously worth it on their parts but overall don't think it's the right move. 

I also pushed Shaun way into the back for being a mole because if you cast someone whos lying about their job why the hell would you let the cast potentially watch a video telling that lie, coupled by the fact that Michael saw him steal the picture in the dinner challenge and in his confessional seemed to think it was too obvious, which obviously ended up being some production trick to throw it off since Michael likely was pretty zoned in on Shaun from that point on.

Hannah carried this season regardless and we'll be seeing her again somewhere soon

that lil blonde girl from last season on TikTok Said the winner of last season cheated. He used the smart TV in his hotel room to search the players on social media and use that information on the quizzes. So maybe the tapes were useful! We don't See all of the quiz questions. Some are probably random like did they go to college or if they work in healthcare etc. if you know the mole and know more about their real life than others you're golden

Yeah it's a bit of a flawed system when it comes down to not even just knowing the mole but having to know random things about them, maybe they could make the finale tiebreaker who guessed the mole right more times throughout the season or something. Don't even blame Will for cheating, why the hell not do it if you can get away with it.

Yea we don't need a season 3

Chicken_breast#402

I don't like the winner. They were very boring and annoying. 

Challenge 17#403

We see question about college on the last quiz. I discredited Shaun for being so obvious in his sabotage but with this mess of a cast I guess that was the point. 

Challenge 17#404

I do think the show should go the whodunit route and instead of a quiz they have to explain what the sabotage was, what mission it was and who they think did it, but then again that probably wouldn't work with this format. 

Chicken_breast#405

Idk who said it but they should make a mole money bank and then reveal if the mole actually sabatoged that challenge or not.

Peacekeeper22#406

Muna said that she and Deanna also saw Sean hide the picture during the restaurant mission.
