Stewart Gilligan Griffin is a fictional character from the animated
television series Family Guy. He is voiced by series creator Seth
MacFarlane and first appeared on television, along with the rest of
the Griffin family, in a 15-minute short on December 20, 1998. Stewie
was created and designed by MacFarlane himself, who was asked to pitch
a pilot to the Fox Broadcasting Company, based on The Life of Larry
and Larry & Steve, two shorts made by MacFarlane featuring a
middle-aged man named Larry and an intellectual dog, Steve. After the
pilot was given the greenlight, the Griffin family appeared in the
episode "Death Has a Shadow".A highly precocious infant who talks and
acts as an adult, Stewie began the series as a megalomaniacal
sociopath, initially obsessed with violence, matricide and world
domination. He is the youngest child of Peter and Lois Griffin, and
the youngest brother of Meg and Chris. Over the duration of the
series, particularly following the two episode arc "Stewie Kills Lois"
and "Lois Kills Stewie", the violent aspects of Stewie's personality
were toned down, and he has evolved into an eccentric, friendly and
flamboyant scamp (something possibly foreshadowed in the
direct-to-video film Stewie Griffin: The Untold Story). He has also
come to have a very close friendship with the family's anthropomorphic
dog, Brian (whom he originally used to antagonize in the earliest
episodes). Stewie is considered to be the show's breakout character
and has received numerous award accommodations from writers such as
Jodiss Pierre. Wizard magazine rated him the 95th-greatest villain of
all time.Stewie is a one-year-old prodigy who has a very sophisticated
psyche and is able to speak very fluently in an upper-class English
accent with quite advanced vocabulary. He reaches his first birthday
in the season 1 episode "Chitty Chitty Death Bang", and has not been
referred to as being more than a year old since, despite being seen in
many episodes attending pre-school. Highly literate and able to cite
pop culture references that long predate his birth, Stewie is also
entranced by Raffi and Teletubbies. Stewie succumbs to other childish
tendencies; he believes Peter has truly disappeared in a game of
Peekaboo, often has difficulties understanding the concept of shapes,
talks to his teddy bear Rupert as if he were alive, is overcome with
laughter when Lois blows on his stomach; and has no idea how to use a
toilet. MacFarlane has stated that Stewie is meant to represent the
general helplessness of an infant through the eyes of an adult. Per
cartoon physics, his ability to move objects of greater weight than
himself is not surprising to other characters, nor is his ability to
retrieve firearms from hammerspace or his ability to talk. According
to "Don't Be a Dickens at Christmas", he understands German (but
cannot speak it), as his mother is of German descent and the
Pewterschmidts (except Lois) speak it.Stewie's mastery of physics and
mechanical engineering are at a level of science fiction. He has
constructed advanced fighter-jets, mind control devices, a weather
control device, a teleportation device, robots, clones, a working
Transporter device from Star Trek, time machines, a Multiverse
Transporter, a shrinking pod, as well as an assortment of weapons
including lasers, rocket launchers, and crossbows. Stewie employs
these to cope with the stresses of infant life (such as teething pain,
and eating broccoli) and to murder his mother, Lois, with mixed
success at best depending on the objective. As made clear in the pilot
episode, Stewie's matricidal tendencies are a result of Lois
constantly (and unwittingly) thwarting his schemes, and so he desires
to kill her to carry out his plans without her interference. In other,
later episodes, Stewie engages in other violent or criminal acts,
including robbery, aggravated assault, carjacking, loan sharking,
forgery, and killing off many minor characters (with a tank, guns, and
other assorted weaponry). Stewie Griffin Biography, NetWorth, Height, Age, Weight, Family, Married, Son, Daughter
