Notes
Series creator Seth MacFarlane planned for the series' third season to end with Stewie coming out of the closet after a near death experience. However, the show's abrupt cancellation caused MacFarlane to abort these plans. Since that point, MacFarlane has opted to have Stewie portrayed as sexually ambiguous since, in his eyes, the flexibility of Stewie's sexuality allows for much more freedom in terms of writing for the character.
According to Seth MacFarlane the other characters can understand Stewie when he talks, however, they don't take Stewie seriously, generally ignoring his comments, as he is just a baby.
