It is as yet unclear if Alex Wagner, who hosted the first season of the reboot, would continue the job into season 2

LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: It is time to find the mole, once again! Originally an ABC show that ran from 2001-2008, 'The Mole' was rebooted after a 14-year hiatus on Netflix in 2022. 'The Mole' is based on the Belgian show 'De Mol', created by Bart De Pauw, Tom Lenaerts, Michiel Devlieger, and Michel Vanhove. Now, Netflix has greenlit the reality game show for another season and fans are absolutely delighted. 'The Mole' has 12 contestants who participate in various tasks, including solving puzzles and competing for cash prizes. But that's not just it. They are also tasked with finding the saboteur of the game, who is a player among them. 

'The Mole' has seen several incredible hosts over the years, including Anderson Cooper, Ahmad Rashad, and Jon Kelley. Alex Wagner served as the host of the reboot, and it is yet to be known if she would continue the job into season 2. The official synopsis of the show from Netflix reads, "Twelve players complete challenges while trying to identify the one among them who's sabotaging their missions in this reboot of the cult-classic series."
