The latest Flemish series is just about finished (bar the reunion on Sunday, which is always entertaining) and normally that’s the end of Mole season for the year and although it’s probably not quite a top three season for me there has certainly been a lot of Sicilian based messing around and some fantastic and hilarious ideas. But it’s not the end of Mole season this year! And specifically June 28th not one but *two* new seasons are launching.
The one that’s going to be easiest to watch is series two of Netflix Mole, this time round hosted by Ari Shapiro from NPR. If there’s one thing you can guarantee with Netflix Mole, it will certainly be the format of The Mole.
More interestingly, Wie is De Mol? in The Netherlands is doing its first civilian season in over twenty years and it’s going to be a streaming exclusive, hosted by previous contestant Hila Noorzai. It’s on NPO Start, last time I tried to watch NPO online it was ungeoblocked, but I don’t know if that’s still the case and it stands to reason that with this being a streaming exclusive they might not be quite so happy with translated Youtube uploads but we’ll see what transpires translation wise. Also we *think* it’s the first season with a new showrunner after the previous one declared the series just gone out to be his last. And it’s set in Oman. And the advert looks great. Two episodes every Friday.
These will largely be discussed in the Discord nearer the time.
In other news, The 8 Show, Netflix next Gameshow of Death K-Drama, launches on Netflix tomorrow.
