Season chronology
← Previous Next → Season 20: China

The nineteenth season of the Dutch TV series Wie is de Mol? ("Who is the Mole?") aired in the winter of 2019. This was the first season with new host and former winner, Rik van de Westelaken. The season took place in Colombia, the eighth country, and seventh season the series had filmed in the Americas, following Canada, Argentina, Mexico, El Salvador, Nicaragua, the Dominican Republic, and the United States respectively. The season premiered on January 5, 2019. Live Finale aired on March 9, 2019 with simulcast in cinemas throughout the Netherlands. During the Finale, Sarah Chronis was declared the winner of the season, earning a grand total of €10,150.-. Chronis, alongside her runner-up Niels Littooij, had successfully unmasked Merel Westrik as the Mole of 2019.

Format[]

Followed the same format as its Belgian predecessor, the season had ten Dutch celebrities travel to Colombia to complete Assignments to earn money for the group pot. However, one of the ten is the titular Mole (de Mol), the one designated to sabotage the assignments and cause the group to earn the least amount of money for the winner's pot as possible. Every few days, players would take a 20-question multiple choice test about the identity of the Mole. Once the test is complete, the candidates await their results in an Execution ceremony. The candidate with the worst score is executed from the game, while in the event of the tie the candidate who completed their test the slowest is executed. The season plays out until there are three remaining candidates, where they must complete a final test (consisting of 40 questions). The candidate with the highest score, or had completed their test the fastest in a tie, is declared the winner and receives the group's pot.^[1]

Jokers, collectible tokens in the series that could correct wrong answers in test, were adapted with for this season. Throughout the season, any Jokers the candidates earned in assignments could be split open to potentially find an Exemption. However, if a Joker is split open, they become void regardless of holding an Exemption or not. Another twist occurred later in the season, where the candidates could gamble in an assignment to earn Jokers or have their next test time reduced to one second. The risk was that they could lose money for the pot, or if they're unlucky enough, two candidates would be executed from the game at the next Execution Ceremony. Some of the candidates lost in their gamble, which caused the second instance in the series' history where two candidates were executed from the game in the same Execution ceremony, the last of which occurred in Season 5.

The candidates would only find out who had earned exemptions at the first Execution ceremony, if they reject Rik's offer.
