Why oh why are they bringing this show back? Didn't they kill it
halfway through the show last time? What makes them think people will
watch it now? Will you watch it?

The series had 2 regular seasons (2001-2002), followed by 2 seasons of
"The Celebrity Mole".

The second season started in Sept 2001, but was pulled after three weeks
due to bad ratings. It was re-aired in the summer of 2002, and was
considered successful enough (having gone against American Idol season
2) to span 2 seasons of a celebrity version.

I have no intention of watching it.

Bad ratings! Jeepers, I think a little something happened on 9/11
that kinda put peoples brains out of tune with reality game shows...

I'll watch. I didn't get into it before until the celebrity version and
I loved it.

It's going up against CSI: Miami reruns and "Last Comic Standing."
Not what I'd call stiff competition.

Yes! I've seen one season of it and thought it was a very cool idea.
Something like this, the characters really make the show and the season I
watched had pretty decent people.

I didn't bother with the celebrity edition, mainly because I'd rather not
watch a bunch of D listers with delusions. Wasn't Kathy Griffin on that?

Yes, I will certainly watch it. I loved the first two seasons of it.
I abhorred the celebrity editions; all that pool time sort of killed
suspense.

I repeat:

What other choices are there? CSI: Miami repeats? Nashville Star? A book?
