Fox Orders Two-Season Stewie Spinoff From Family Guy for 2027–28

The series expands Fox’s adult animation slate with a standalone Stewie vehicle from Seth MacFarlane at 20th Television Animation.

Overview

  • Fox confirmed a two-season pickup for Stewie, targeting a 2027–28 debut on the network with next-day streaming on Hulu and international availability on Disney+.
  • Seth MacFarlane will continue to voice Stewie and executive-produce, with Kirker Butler as co-creator and showrunner and Kara Vallow as executive producer.
  • Produced by 20th Television Animation, the spinoff centers on Stewie in a new preschool where his devices launch surreal trips through space and time, including encounters with a 75-year-old class turtle.
  • Reporting indicates the show will operate in its own continuity, with no expected effect on Stewie’s presence in Family Guy.
  • Episode counts have not been announced, with trade reports suggesting slightly fewer than roughly 15 per season and noting an unconfirmed Fox–Hulu cost-sharing arrangement.
