Criminal Minds enthusiasts may find this little tidbit of information about the beloved character Reid, played by Matthew Gray Gubler, quite interesting.

Show creator Jeff Davis shared on Twitter his original vision of Reid, writing: "Fun fact for Criminal Minds fans. I was originally planning for Reid to be bi. That got shut down by 4th episode with his crush on JJ."

After the Twitter responses from his first tweet, Davis wrote: "To clarify: I know what bisexual is. I'm a gay man myself. I got push back from the powers that be."
