Stewie Griffin InnocentBaby ? or Evildoer? W W A R
A cute, harmless baby on the outside, but an evil, intelligent schemer on the inside whose main goals in life are to kill his mother Lois and take over the world. Stewie Griffin is perfect example of satire as he exemplifies the idea that no one ever truly knows what is going on inside the mind of a child.
“Innocent” Evidence 1. Stewie’s bright clothes create a deceiving notion that he has character traits of a young child. 2. Stewie has many baby toys, that give a false impression of childlike innocence, but majority of them have the ability to turn to weapons. His closet and toy box which have an innocent exterior contain weapons of mass destruction.
Evil Evidence 1. In many comic books and stories, the evildoer has a bald head in order to create an unappealing view, Stewie’s bald head has a dual meaning since he is evil and babies tend to have a bald head. 2. Stewie’s squinty and shifty eyes give the impression that he is always plotting and scheming.
Evil Evidence 3. Stewie’s ongoing plot to kill his mother goes against the claim that babies tend to cling to their mothers. 4. Nobody in the Griffin family seems to hear Stewie , except for Brian the dog. This shows that because he is the baby of the family, not a lot of attention is given to him, when if the Griffins paid more attention they would quickly see the plots of the 6 month old.
Stewie Griffin represents satire in the show Family Guy, as his innocent appearance deters his family and friends from uncovering his true motives of world domination and the murder of his mother Lois. Once carefully examined one can see that there is more to him than what meets the eye and that the thoughts of a child are not always as one dimensional as one may think.
