Gay Degrassi star Adamo Ruggiero's next acting gig will be on the Toronto stage in a production of the Peanuts-inspired Dog Sees God. The cynical comedy asks what might happen to the iconic Peanuts characters if they grew up to become contemporary teens.

Charlie Brown (or "CB") is contemplating life and death after his dog died, his sister is now a goth, and his best friend has traded his security blanket for Harold and Kumar's favorite herb.

Ruggiero plays Van, the Linus character, who is still thoughtful and philosophical but has also become a stoner in his teen years, a role that was originated by another gay actor, Daniel Franzese (Bully, Party Monster, Mean Girls).

Adamo is accompanied by his Degrassi castmates Jake Epstein, Mike Lobel and Paula Bracati. Considering that the Off-Broadway production of Dog Sees God included performers with a gay following like Eliza Dushku, Ian Somerhalder and America Ferrera, a cast heavy on Degrassi faves seems apt.

The Peanuts Gang of course inspired their own Broadway musical decades back (You're a Good Man, Charlie Brown) and their continued appeal to gay folks led us to wonder:

Which member of the Peanuts Gang is most likely to be gay?
