The Mole: Episode 1 Discussion
« on: June 02, 2008, 12:35:58 PM »
This is the thread to discuss Episode 1 both as it happens and afterward.

While we will NOT post any spoiler info here deliberately (RIGHT everybody? :lol:), discussion and pointing out of clues is fair game, although a more indepth analysis of the clues and the challenges will also be ongoing here:
http://forum.realityfanforum.com/index.php?topic=15540.0

And as always, our west coast viewers may (or may not! ;)) want to avoid this thread until they have seen the show themselves.

I noticed one contestant had the mole print on her helmet during the falls challenge, then the others following her did not.

Were there others with the mole print on their helmet and I just missed it?  If not, it was a very obvious clue far too early in the game.

I noticed that too on Victoria's head.  I doubt it'd be that obvious either.

Ummm... I vote for "not doing to well as a group."

They don't need the mole.  They are sabotaging themselves by not communicating.

They have to find the 5 out of 45 items items on the beach that Selkirk ( ie Crusoe :lol:) had with him in 17 something..

scavengers bring the items

Appraisers have 3 chances to choose the 5

Timekeepers have to keep filling the hourglass

each item =$5000

guys not really running. :snicker:

They've gotten 3 out of 5 items (a musket, a goat, and a Bible - they missed a box of tobacco and a copper tea pot) for an additional $15,000. (total=$35,000)

Nicole gets to stay on Exile Island (the beach) and, I'm assuming, miss the quiz.

Seeing this show makes me wish I was in the LED lighting business!  The trim of the house... the gazebo interior... and I am sure there is much more to come.   :lol:

I like the new touch screen so much better than Anderson Cooper's painfully slow typing.  Very sleek and a nice update to the game.

Marcie is out! There's a somewhat superfluous shot of Nicole on the beach to end the episode

So what did y'all think? A good start? What about Kelley as host?

I loved the locations, thought the challenge was fun and creative, and **sigh** I miss Anderson... :'(

The only thing that I don't like about Kelley is his voice overs, not so much a good fit with the show.  But he seems to have the hosting talent Cooper had, so I'll give him credit where credit is due.
