Family Guy: 50 Best Episodes

11. Go Stewie Go

Family Guy 11Season: 8 Episode: 13 Original Air Date: March 14th, 2010 There's going to be an American version of Jolly Farm Revue, and Stewie wants to be on the show. He and Brian head to the show's auditions, only to discover there's a single role left open, and it's a female. Because they didn't travel to the auditions for nothing, Stewie dresses up as a female named Karina Smirnoff... and he actually lands the role. While filming the show, Stewie begins to fall in love with his co-star, Julie, who still thinks Karina is actually a girl. As the two continue growing closer, Julie tells "Karina" that she wishes she were a boy so that she could date Karina, which leads to Stewie losing control and hitting on Julie, who sees it as Karina, telling her that she's not a lesbian. The entire thing was confusing, but that's the point. Stewie then makes the decision to reveal to the world, on the air, who he really is, so he goes on a lengthy soliloquy about his character's life before the final reveal that he's a boy. The entire speech is just masterful, and you can't stop laughing as Stewie gets closer and closer to the big reveal. In a minor side plot, Peter keeps making fun of Lois for getting older. In a shocking twist, not only does Meg end up having a boyfriend, but he's quite the looker. Lois finds herself really liking when the boyfriend, Anthony, comes over, and she eventually seduces him when Meg leaves them to go pick up her grandfather. Meg ends up coming home early and catching them in the act. Poor Meg. She finally gets herself something nice... and it's taken away by her own mother. Sucks to be her.
