Dean Pelton played by Jim Rash When gay advocy groups tally the number of gay characters prime time, they may not know que what to do wh Craig Pelton, the bald, skny Greendale Communy College lear on NBC’s Communy (8 PM Thursday). “As he says, gay is probably an over-simplifitn, ” said seri creator/executive producer Dan Harmon of the recurrg show’s Wikipedia page scrib Dean Pelton as bisexual, and more than anythg, he’s probably a fool above and beyond whatever sexual inty viewers ascribe to him.

And, ’s not technilly accurate to label him gay, as sexual orientatn is a broad topic and falls unr dividual choic.
Still, the word “gay” is ed as an umbrella term by many to note the LGBTIQ+ muny when the exact sexual orientatn is not known. But retrospect, there's a more ronant aspect to the "Human Beg" mast, who — much like Pelton — rists simplistic viewers and crics have prumed that Dean Pelton is gay.
