Twelve armchair detectives team up in this rebooted reality show.
More than two decades later,The Moleis back.
Now the show has been rebooted with 10 new episodes airing on Netflix.
Weirdly enough, executive producer Chris Culvenor said the reboot was inspired by the wave of true crime tales.
On that, you saw all these armchair detectives solve this incredibly complex case.
And that was the spark in my head, Culvenor told Parade.com.
That led me to think we now live in a different world from whenThe Molelaunched.
True crime is extremely popular.
Crime podcasts are extremely popular.
Everyone has a little bit of detective in them.
So what better time to look at bringing back this classic format?
It didn’t mean that they needed to be a true crime junkie.
He cited heist moviesOcean’s ElevenorMission Impossibleas inspiration for finding people who could plug into those amazing challenges.
He also added that diversity was a major factor.
We didn’t want 12 players of former FBI investigators seeing if they could crack it, he said.
There’s a firefighter, a pilot, a gamer.
All these people who come from different backgrounds with different sorts of histories.
