SETH MACFARLANE SPOKE YEARS AGO ABOUT HOW HE HAD ONCE WRTEN AN EPISO WHICH STEWIE OUT AS GAY BUT OPTED NOT TO N WH BEE HE’D RATHER HIS SEXUALY REMA AMBIGUO. WHILE STEWIE DON’T E OUT THIS EPISO, DO ADDRS HIS SEXUALY THE MOST DIRECT WAY THE SERI HAS YET. WHY DO YOU THK NOW IS THE TIME TO DO THAT?I THK HASN’T BEEN ADDRSED A DIFFERENT WAY. I THK WE’VE JT GONE EPER SI STEWIE’S MD AND HIS NER WORKGS. SO ’S NOT THAT HE’S G OUT AS GAY THIS EPISO. NOTHG HAS CHANGED OM WHAT SETH SAID ABOUT KEEPG AMBIGUO. I THK THERE’S SOMETHG MORE VULNERABLE AND HUMAN AND ACTUALLY TERTG ABOUT KEEPG AMBIGUO. WE’RE JT KD OF ADDRSG THE THGS GOG AROUND THAT THIS. IT’S NOT A QUTN OF G OUT OR NOT G OUT, WHICH IS A KD OF SIMPLER WAY OF HANDLG . IT’S ALSO A CHANGE OF THE SHOW. IF HE WERE TO E OUT SUDNLY, THE SHOW BE PRE- AND POST-G OUT. THE MORE YOU LEAVE THERE, THE MORE FUN WE N HAVE WH HIM OVER THE URSE OF 20 YEARS. THE SHOW WILL BE ON FOR 20 YEARS PRETTY SOON. IN THE LONGEVY OF THE SHOW I THK ’S BT TO KEEP HIM WHERE HE IS. IN 20 YEARS OF THIS SHOW AND WH THIS CHARACTER, THIS IS MAYBE HIS BIGGT EPISO. IT’S THE FIRST TIME THE SHOW HAS AIRED WH NO MERCIAL BREAK. IT’S JT HIM AND ONE OTHER CHARACTER. HOW DO RANK FOR YOU TERMS OF YOUR WORK WH THE SHOW?WHAT’S GREAT ABOUT THIS SHOW IS GO ALL DIFFERENT PLAC AND ’S WILLG TO DO SO MANY DIFFERENT KDS OF EPISOS. THIS IS THE MOST EEDOM I FELT I’VE HAD.

IS STEWIE GRIFF GAY?
” While he rambl on, all of this leads to one signifint revelatn — Stewie might be homosexual. In 2009, Seth MacFarlane, the creator and voice actor of Stewie, mentned an terview that the show had ntemplated an episo where Stewie would e out as gay.
But this revelatn impli that MacFarlane directly acknowledged Stewie’s homosexualy. Ultimately, Stewie will be gay or a very unhappy reprsed heterosexual.
While the show never explicly nfirmed Stewie’s sexualy, they nsistently dropped hts suggtg that the 1-year-old troublemaker might be homosexual. A special episo of Seth MacFarlane's Fay Guy fally dismissed the long-held theory that Stewie Griff is gay.
