ABC's returning 'Mole' Revived reality series averages a 1.9 in 18-49s Jun 3, 2008 ABC’s “The Mole” had an inauspicious return after a four-year absence last night, finishing third in its timeslot and losing a good deal of its “Bachelorette” lead-in. “Mole” averaged a 1.9 adults 18-49 rating at 10 p.m., according to Nielsen overnights, well behind timeslot leader NBC’s 2.9 for game five of the Stanley Cup finals. It was also behind a 2.6 for a repeat of “CSI: Miami” on CBS. The series, making its first appearance since a celebrity edition in 2004, also lost 21 percent of “Bachelorette’s” 2.4 lead-in at 9 p.m., dropping ABC well behind the leaders on an otherwise fairly competitive evening. "Mole" was ABC's second attempt at reviving a long-dormant reality series this summer. "Bachelorette" has also put up middling numbers in its return. NBC and CBS tied for first for the night among viewers 18-49, each with a 2.5 average overnight rating and a 7 share, with Fox third at 2.4/7, ABC fourth at 2.1/6, Univision fifth at 1.6/5 and CW sixth at 0.6/2.
