Season 1
Episode 4 Scores Best Ratings Since Premiere
"After a mediocre start, the saboteur series has become the network's top-rated entertainment series this season among adults 18-34. ABC is getting a lot of Fox's 'That 70s Show' audience to switch over at 8:30. 'The Mole' gained in its second half-hour by 14 percent in viewers, 24 percent in adults 18-49 and by 31 percent in adults 18-34."
Season 2
'Mole 2' premiere disappoints, places 4th in timeslot ratings
"The overnight Nielsen ratings are out, and they are not good for ABC and The Mole. The debut of 'The Mole II: The Next Betrayal' kicked off Friday night for ABC with a disappointing 3.7/7, taking fourth place for the hour."
Next to last "Mole II" episode attracts series' largest audience to date
"ABC has announced that the second-to-last telecast of "Mole II: The Next Betrayal" attracted the series' largest audience (8.2 million) and second-highest Adults 18-49 rating (3.5/10). The July 30th episode of the ABC reality series placed a solid second to Fox's "American Idol" on both measures, easily beating NBC's comedies ("Frasier"/"Scrubs" - 7.1 million & 2.9/9) and CBS "The Guardian" (7.0 million & 1.6/5)."
Celebrity Mole Hawaii
Premiered 10pm ET after series premiere of The Bachelorette
'Celebrity Mole Hawaii' premiere draws strongest Mole ratings since 'Mole 1' finale
"The celebrity whodunit program drew an average audience of 10.8 million viewers and notched a 5.3 rating, 14 share among Adults 18-49, placing second to NBC's "Law & Order" on both counts."
Celebrity Mole Yucatan
Premiered 10pm ET following Life After Extreme Makeover special
Sans 'Bachelorette" lead-in, 'Celebrity Mole Yucatan' premiere struggles in the ratings
"The Celebrity Mole Yucatan premiere built on its Adult 18-49 lead-in by 9% (3.6/9 vs. 3.3/8) and on its Adult 18-34 lead-in by 29% (3.6/11 vs. 2.8/8) to earn second place in its hour on both measures."
Ratings soar for second 'Celebrity Mole Yucatan' episode
With Bachelorette replacing last week's fourth place Life After Extreme Makeover special as its lead-in, Celebrity Mole Yucatan posted enormous across-the-board gains from its January 7 season premiere, growing by 28% in total viewers (9.2 million vs. 7.2 million), by 25% in Adults 18-49 (4.5/12 vs. 3.6/9), and by 28% in Adults 18-34 (4.6/14 vs. 3.6/11).
And just a contradiction to what Anderson said to Jeff Probst while The Mole 1 was on the air about not liking his hosting duties and wanting to get back behind a news desk:
Anderson confirms that once again he didn't know the mole, says he'd be interested in hosting 'Mole 3'
Anderson also confesses to not knowing another thing -- whether a 'Mole 3' series will be produced. "It's up to ABC," said Cooper, who moved from the network to CNN in January. "It depends on contractual issues, but I would certainly be interested in doing it."
