It's not Mitchell knowing, it's Mitchell protecting George from it that piques my interest.
I know, world in peril and we have to work together. This is my last office romance, I'll tell you that.

A topic for the discussion of Doctor Who, Arrow, and The Flash. Beware possible invasions of iZombie, Sleepy Hollow, or pretty much any other "genre" (read: sci fi, superhero, or fantasy) show that captures our fancy. Expect adult content and discussion of the Big Gay Sex.
Marvel superheroes are discussed over at the MCU thread.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

It reminds me of that Larry Niven story "The Subject Is Closed."

A priest talks to some highly advanced aliens who are socializing in an earthside bar frequented by alien travelers. Once his job comes up in conversation, they tell him their race knows all it cares to about the afterlife. Turns out, ages ago they were in contact with another species that set out to find out about life after death scientifically. Then they lost contact, as the entire race promptly committed mass suicide. As did some of the teams who investigated their demise. And some researchers who looked into the records of the investigations long afterwards. Eventually, they destroyed all the records concerning the situation. Once the tale ends, the Priest and the human bartender are left speculating about exactly what sort of discovery could have prompted such a reaction. The aliens note that they might want to be careful in case they figure out the answer .

FYI--the TV Guide that comes out on Thursday has BSG on the cover (actually, two separate covers--one with Olmos and McDonnell, and one with Helfer, Sackhoff and Bamber) and a bunch of articles inside.

From the article:
Edward James Olmos (Adm. William Adama) “Adama’s romance with Laura Roslin was probably the most rewarding part of the whole BSG experience…I consider those scenes some of the great moments in my career.”
D'awww. I remember the impromptu kiss in Season... 2? That was one of my favorite little moments.
