* PoliticalOverCorrectness: In episode 4 Caleb interrupts Freckles' story when he gets uncomfortable with them mentioning the race of two boys they're trying to hook up with, citing a race problem in America. Freckles counters that there's a rac''ism'' problem in America, and that their story isn't racist for acknowledging the boys' race, but diverse, and that being "color blind" or every character being white would be racist. Caleb concedes the point.

* BisexualLoveTriangle: Caleb and Karen both develop an attraction to Billy, who realises to be bisexual. While this creates conflict between Caleb and Karen, towards the end of episode 3 they start shifting towards ThreesomeSubtext.
Added DiffLines:
* CastFullOfGay: Out of the main cast of six characters, two (Caleb and Benicio) are gay, one (Freckle) is genderfluid, and one (Billy) eventually comes out as bisexual. The exceptions are Len who initially "[[PragmaticPansexuality comes out]]" as bi but it doesn't stick, and Karen who's a straight woman. Then there are the numerous queer side characters. But hey, what did you expect from a series titled ''The '''Gay''' and Wondrous Life of Caleb Gallo''?
Added DiffLines:
* SympatheticAdulterer: Protagonist Caleb's main conflict stems from entering a monogamous relationship with Benicio, while at the same time being unable to stop his growing (and mutual) attraction to Billy.
