Following in the footsteps of original host Anderson Cooper and his tepidly received successor, Ahmad Rashad, Jon Kelley has been enlisted to front the latest edition of ABC's The Mole. Kelley's credits include TV's Extra (where he was a weekend anchor) and Fox Sports Net's The National Sports Report and Baseball Today.

According to Variety, ABC is likely to premiere the first new Mole in years on Monday, May 26, at 10 pm/ET, where it would lead out of The Bachelorette (who is tentatively slated to have her first date on May 19). - MWM
