But then there's the future versions of Stewie where he was married and complaining about phone bills, or the movie version where he was a 40 year old virgin trying to get with that woman. As well as his being enamored with Olivia and that other baby that wanted his cookies. I think they just want him to be a freak.
The Simpsons jumped the shark when Phil Hartman died, and because of that loss, they brought in new and unfunny characters like Gill and made the stupid cat lady a recurring theme. He must of contributed ideas too, cause the show started to suck ass after he was gone.
Ironically, Zapp Brannigan is essentially the combination of Lionel Hutz and Troy McClure, Billy West sounds close enough.
Phil Hartman died in 06. The Simpsons has sucked for alot longer than 3 years. More like 10. IMHO.

I think Stewie being gay is a newer development, hence Jumping the Shark. All these other plots were written before they decided this.

We all feel that Stewie is almost certainly gay, and he’s in the process of figuring it out for himself. We haven’t ever really locked into it because we get a lot of good jokes from both sides, but we treat him oftentimes as if we were writing a gay character.

They've always flirted with Stewie = Gay though. Like when Brian caught him with makeup, and when he sang that gay HMS Pinafore type song. I think they just took his sexual ambiguity to an extreme where its not a gag anymore.
Sometimes I wonder if all women are this difficult. And then I think to myself... "My god, wouldn't it be marvelous if I turned out to be a homosexual?".......

Wow, that's the exact moment I credit with when the Simpsons started to suck.
That's freaky weird.
