I post this in every single foreign Mole thread. But OZ Mole 3 is certainly the best season of the mole ever, and probably my fave season of any reality show.
It's sooooooo good.
It's sooooooo good.

I am strangely addicted to OZMole1....really low production values but that seems to add to it's charm.

I know. It feels like a PBS documentary! What does it say that I like Oz Mole 1 better than this current US season???

I thought the UK mole (season 1) was pretty good. I was really shocked who the mole was.
Second season was okay. I think they had some really cool challenges, but it was pretty obvious who the mole was. |

I don't know about the other seasons, but OZ 1 was absolutely awful. I don't know about the tasks, since I couldn't even stomach 10 minutes of it,
but the host was SO bad, he spoke so slowly and was so monotonous I just switched off. The contestants were also not well-introduced, and production quality
was even worse than the UK moles, which I actually enjoyed.

I was let down by the first episode of Oz Mole 3 after hearing how good it was, but I stuck with it and was really glad I did.
The quality of the tasks gets better as the show goes on (LOVE the murder mystery game!), the cast is great, the host is good, and the Mole was excellent and pulled of one of the riskiest and ballsiest sabotages on the very first night. The only thing that really annoyed me was that there was no delay between when the host entered the person's name into the computer and when the result comes up which makes it kind of anticlimactic. But really, that's only gripe with the whole show. Thanks again to those who recommended it. |

OZ 1 is a really good season, even if there isn't a nice polish to the show. Jan is quickly becoming my favorite, and I've only watched the first two
episodes.

I had heard of the OZ Moles and DL OZ 1,2,3. 1 was pretty good and I enjoyed the reunion show where some people were still pretty pissed at the Mole. OZ 2 was
meh, but as everyone has mentioned, OZ 3 was great and the Mole was just an excellent Mole. Up to the last episode I still though any of the final 3 could
potentially be the Mole.
Does anyone know if there's been some Spanish versions of the show and if so, where can I find them? |

OK, thanks to greenscreener's link in another thread I've decided to give foreign versions a chance. At least, Aussie Mole Season 1 (I just picked
Australia and started with the first season). I haven't read any of this thread yet except the title; I just went looking for a thread about Moles from
other countries I could post in and this one seems like it would work.
The thing is, I'm super scared of reading a spoiler since these shows are already over, so I'm not going to read any posts until after I'm done watching. :p I just wanted to post my thoughts somewhere so here goes for the first episode of Aussie Mole season 1: The right person was executed. James, the guy with long hair, seemed boring and I didn't think he was the mole at all. Unless Abby (not using the walkie talkie right during the hostage mission) or Ben (driving too fast and getting a ticket, leading to them not winning any money for the hostage mission) is the mole, the mole didn't sabotage even one thing the first episode out of three challenges! Everyone skydived, the packers packed well enough for the guessers to guess rightly what they didn't pack, and the boat, the helicopter and the car all made it to the hostage! Well, Beverley didn't pack Patrick's suitcase right (she left out all his shirts) and that was suspicious too. For some reason I think the mole was on the boat during the hostage mission (so either Abby, Rocky or Beverley). Rankings: 1 - Abby - right now she's my top suspect as her not being able to use the walkie talkie and the battery to make it work right being behind her on the boat seat 2 - Beverley - packed a suitcase wrong and was on the boat too so could've hidden that battery 3 - Rocky - he just seems suspicious and was also on the boat so could've hidden the battery 4 - Linda - she made a comment on the plane before skydiving about being in hell and the way she said it just didn't seem exactly like something a contestant on a great adventure like this would say 5 - Josephine - there were 4 planes taken for skydiving; every other plane carried 3 contestants and her plane just carried her; maybe that was a clue if this version has clues 6 - Ben - maybe he should be higher up since he's the only person who cost the team any money this episode (getting the ticket while driving), but he just seems too obvious or something 7 - Jan - didn't really seem too suspicious except for one confessional near the end 8 - Alan - totally unremarkable 9 - Patrick - he just seemed to help too much during the hostage challenge so he's not at all suspicious to me |

Just finished the second ep! Thoughts:
Beverley was already suspicious but she got way more suspicious - she navigated the car wrong in the race challenge (the only one who really did anything very wrong in that challenge) and she filmed her group very badly in the hidden camera/laughing challenge. Josephine rose way up on my list because her golf playing was very bad and the host told everyone but her (because she was away for the golf challenge) that the mole had been at work during the filming challenge because they failed badly, perhaps a bit of misdirection since Josephine was the only one not at that challenge. Rankings: 1 - Beverley - now my top suspect by far 2 - Josephine 3 - Rocky - still just seems suspicious for some reason 4 - Abby - less suspicious this ep because even though she was weak she fixed the tire fast in the racecar challenge, but still on my radar 5 - Ben - didn't do anything suspicious that I noticed this ep 6 - Linda 7 - Jan 8 - Alan - he answered a question wrong during the golf challenge about weather even though he's does something environmental for a living, but he's still at the bottom of my list because besides that one time he's never even hardly mentioned in the editing |

The second season of Australia...eh.
I really thought it was really lame that they executed 6 people right off the bat. |

Done with the third ep! Here's my thoughts:
First, I was fine with Patrick leaving last week as I didn't suspect him at all, but Rocky surprised me a little cause I was suspicious of him. And all the guys are leaving! It's becoming an estrogen fest. :p Kind of funny, becoming the opposite of how this American season turned out. The host is fine I guess, but he's kind of nerdy and he has this weird way of talking that's kind of creepy - like quiet but dramatic/intense. I still think Bev is the mole, but Josephine is very suspicious too. Alan has been a non-entity so if he is the mole that would suck. Jan I do not suspect. I think the show making a big deal out of her not leading Rocky out of the maze was just to divert attention away from the real mole and was just an honest mistake. Ben is a little suspicious still from that driving ticket that lost the team money in the first ep, but besides that I haven't noticed anything else. Linda seems suspicious but hasn't done anything too obvious. I used to suspect Abby more but she hasn't done anything too suspicious recently that I've noticed. Josephine is just weird and always acts suspicious, and of course I still think back to her being on that first ep plane alone. And during the taste test where they had to choose the non-local cheese she wouldn't choose one. Beverley is just always suspicious and is the Mole. Although, I really hope she's not. I'd feel good for figuring it out so fast but it'd suck because it was so easy to figure out so fast. But she does do something to sabotage almost every mission and has a good excuse of being old and kooky. The maze mission was cool. Rankings: 1-Beverley 2-Josephine 3-Abby 4-Linda 5-Ben 6-Jan 7-Alan |

Ep4-
Well, I'm surprised Jo's gone; she was near the top of my list of suspects. Rankings: 1-Bev - continues to be suspicious ep after ep. First she threw all the bait away too fast in this fishing challenge while Jo was trying to catch fish, then in the challenge where they had to stay on the island all night she wanted to get off and ruin the mission, then she was the first to fall off the raft Linda and Jan made in ruin that challenge. 2-Linda - she rose again this ep because she and Jan made an awful raft and Linda's excuse was something like "I was too busy kissing boys during girl guides". She also said some odd things about who she suspects, making me think she may be the mole not knowing what to say about other suspects. 3-Ben - almost started to try to talk Bev into taking the exemption and ruining the challenge to spend the night on the island even after Bev had decided to stay 4-Abby 5-Alan - finally rose from last place because he acted very seasick during the catching seafood mission, and then he "couldn't" get the crawfish line back up when he alone went back to retrieve it which was odd. Although, he's still awfully boring and Jo said she thought he was the mole in her last confessional before she got eliminated. 6-Jan - just doesn't seem suspicious to me at all so she drops to last place, so if she's the mole then good job. |
