The only good thing that came from it existing was that actual good mole (1,2) and okay mole (3,4) (5 is alright I guess, I don't remember it) was on Netflix for awhile so now better copies are floating around the internet (well like a teeny part of the internet). Why isn't it still on Netflix? Lol gently caress you. Anyway here are some of the reasons Netflix's The Mole sucks.

They failed to nostalgia right. Different music, different logo, different color. It's suppose to be green you idiots.
The contestants get that they want people to think that they're the mole but they seem to fail to care to put money in the pot. Kind of breaks the game when everyone is sabotaging constantly.
The challenges aren't good.
The challenges are clearly designed so that nobody ever makes money.
Even the challenge I thought was a give me had them gently caress it up.
LOL at the challenge where the whole pot could be "gambled" for an immunity
Contestants are in a competition to win most ridiculous reason to be suspicious of someone.
Episodes do not end with someone losing. Lol that's such basic poo poo gently caress you Netflix.

Also just in case you think The Traitors sounds like The Mole and could be fun, it's also poo poo. I got through one episode (UK version) and stopped.

edit: The music sucks too, it's not just because it's different.

Just watched that show and you're 100% correct.

Especially the part about the bullshit reasons the candidates made up why somebody could be the mole. Literally, 'I saw her sneezing twice in a row; only a mole would do that!' level.

hi how are you

UK Traitors was ok, it's mainly fun because people like talking about it so it gives you something to discuss with people you don't know very well. It'd be made a lot better if the traitors actually had to do something like sabotage the bonus events, as it is it's just people guessing about almost nothing and is a bit aggravating

This is a nice but there's 5 US Mole seasons and I think 2 of UK Mole. The Australian mole is cheap feeling and the copy I had when I tried to watch it looked bad so I didn't get past the first episode. There's also like 24 seasons of the Dutch Mole. Which even if it hasn't been translated to english (brief search shows it on youtube). Lol imagine talking to somebody about a bad show when you could be watching a good show. Yes I know my first post is talking to people about a bad show but that's more of a warning than actually suggesting anybody watches it.

I mean even season 2 of the good mole kind of had that problem. (Or it did, from my recollection of a show I watched over 20 years ago)
