The format of the ABC reality game show The Mole undergoes a few alterations as the series enters its third season. As indicated by season three's "official" title Celebrity Mole: Hawaii, the contestants are no longer "civilians," but instead well-known media personalities. Also, whereas in previous seasons the competition took place all over the world, this season's action is confined to the Hawaiian islands. Additionally, the number of contestants has been whittled down from ten to seven, and the physical and mental challenges have taken on a satirical edge with such designations as "Looky Looky Hot Pepper" and "It Takes a Thief" (there's also a repetition of the previous season's infamous "Tiny Bubbles Torture"). Finally, Ahmad Rashad has taken over the hosting duties from Anderson Cooper.

Be assured that one of these high-profile players is the "mole," planted by the producers to sabotage and undermine the efforts of the other contestants -- and to methodically squander huge chunks of the million-dollar "grand prize," leaving the winner (that is, the one who finally guesses the mole's identity) with only a fraction of the money.
