After three low-rated outings, ABC has decided to bench sophomore series "The Mole 2: The Next Betrayal" until midseason -- the first time a network has pulled a serialized reality series in the
middle of its run. Friday's episode was likely the last aired this year. ABC is now expected to relaunch "The Mole" in January or March, most likely repeating the three episodes already broadcast this
fall. "America's Funniest Home Videos" will likely fill the 8 p.m. slot this Friday; no decision has been made on a permanent replacement.
