Family Guy: 10 Jokes That Just Weren’t Funny

6. Stewie's Post Coital Crying

Episode: Stewie Griffin - The Untold Story Watching Stewie's failure at love-making in the future was just awkward, not funny, and maybe hit a little too close to home when it comes to how fans expect the character to really turn out, at least in his current incarnation. It's bad enough that the motivated, matricidal, world-domination-bent Stewie has been taken away - but was it necessary to take his dignity along with it? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a8BYLw-FfGo The scene involves adult Stewie hooking up with a co-worker, Fran. Afterwards, Stewie comments "That's never happened before" and Fran replies "Which part? The eight seconds of sex or the 45 minutes of crying?" It's somewhere around this point that you realize that "victory is mine!" Stewie is long gone from the show. And having younger Stewie egg on his older self made it all the worse.
