Oct. 7 was one helluva flashback Friday for Netflix viewers. More than a decade after the series went off air, the streaming service brought The Mole back to the small screen.
The reality TV competition sees 12 contestants go head to head in a series of challenges that test their physical endurance. But The Mole is also a mind game. Among the competitors is a traitor put in place to sabotage their success.
Following the series' debut on Netflix, viewers are dying for more. So, has The Mole been canceled or renewed for Season 2? Honestly, it’s too soon to tell.
Did Netflix renew ‘The Mole’ for Season 2?
Netflix has not disclosed whether or not The Mole would return for Season 2, but if the reboot has the same success as the original, we haven’t seen the last of the series.
The Mole lasted a total of five seasons on ABC before it was canceled, though, there was a four-year gap in production between Seasons 4 and Season 5. Nearly a year after Season 5 came to an end, the network announced that they were pulling the plug. ABC never gave a reason for the show’s cancellation.
Episodes of the series were later made available for streaming on Netflix. In August of 2022, reports confirmed that the reboot had been greenlit. The series consists of 10 episodes, which will debut on Netflix in three installments.
