Dutch Genius arrives on 3rd October and that ought to be PRETTY EXCITING as the Dutch tend to do this sort of thing well.
The Mole on Netflix arrives 7th October and is likely to be PRETTY UNDERWHELMING as US versions of things frequently are, not helped by a rather unusual content drop strategy of five straight off, three the following week and the final two the week after. It’s not like a lot of the excitement building for The Mole is allowing people a proper chance to digest and discuss, is it. Still, our expectations being pretty low means it might be a pleasant surprise if it’s basically any good at all.
In what looks like the weirdest “bad timing” moment ever, the Italian state TV announced the Queen’s death by cutting today’s Chain Reaction right after the contestants guessed the word “republic”

Ha! Oh dear!
Not sure if already discussed, but the Trailer has dropped for The Mole…

Based on that my expectations have now sadly sunk FAR lower than they were set at to begin with, it seems they forgot to invite anyone over the age of 25 to apply :/
Yep, discussed In The Discord. My feeling is that it looks like it’s going to try and hit the beats of De Mol/WIDM, but without the craft.
