    what i liked- susie beating up stewie, peter allowing stewie to be taking steroids, the way connie and meg get back at chris, meg asking connie if she can think about her in the tub, connie says no, but meg says "well I'm gonna", Stewie on steroids, amongst a few other things.
    good episode. I would have liked to see more of Stewie on steroids. The whole reason he took them was because Susie had beaten him up so easily and Peter did not want a 'sissy' as a son, but they never really resolved that. I would have liked to see Stewie try and get revenge on Susie (and then have a 'twist' where Susie still beats the crap out of him haha). the rest was good. Chris dating Connie and then becoming popular was a nice plot. B+ or somoreless

    This was just an average episode of "Family Guy"... it was overall good but it could have been better for the most part. I liked the main plot much more than the subplot though. The main plot was when Peter injects Stewie with steroids and I thought it was hilarious when Stewie has a buff body after Peter injects him with steroids. It was hilarious when Lois punched Peter after he told her that he injected Stewie with steroids. Stewie blocking Brian was also hilarious. Stewie being on steroids throughout this episode really made me laugh hard. The cutaway with Fred Flintstone was hilarious. I also thought the cutaway was hilarious when that pigeon is laughing at that Adam Sandler film. I didn't like the subplot that much when Chris became popular and he became a huge jerk to Meg. It was just cruel for Chris to tell Meg that she is not invited to his party even though it is at their own house and poor Meg was crying. Meg also had to help Connie when Connie became unpopular since Chris got all of the popularity. It even angered me when Connie was still not gonna be friends with Meg even though Meg helped her. Oh yeah, I also laughed when Stewie's body turned flabby since the steroids are wearing off and then Stewie was flying. Overall, I loved the Stewie on steroids plot but I really didn't the Chris being popular plot... it was an overall good episode. 7/10moreless

    So, Peter giving Stewie was disturbing and so DUMB of Peter. Man, that was the dumbest thing he's ever done. He always does stupid stuff, but this took the cake. He would shoot drugs up his own SON. Sometimes he's a terrible parent.

    I like Joe and Bonnie's daughter. She is a good character. Her beating up Stewie really showed how whipped Stewie got. Not that there's anything wrong about a girl beating up a boy (If he hit first), but Stewie could usually kill someone with the snap of his hand. Whether he's pulling a lazor gun from behind his back or using a regular object (Golf Club, Lamp, etc).

    The ending with Stewie's "Flying" gag was funny though!
    Chris is sweet when he's not all popular. I think him and Conny could of been good together. The whole "Thinking about you in the tub later" gag was funny especially at the end with Meg saying "Well, I'm still gonna", implying slight lesbianism.moreless

    Stewie gets beat up by Susie Swanson, so Peter thinks he needs to get in better shape. He tries to work out at the gym, but hes too weak. He gives Stewie steriods, and now he is extremely buff, but hes being a real jerk to everyone. Meanwhile, Chris starts dating Connie Dmico, and he becomes popular, but he becomes unpopular, and needs Meg to help her get popular again.

    This was a great episode. Stewie being buff was wicked funny, espicially when he was jerking Brian around, and singing. It kind of reminded me of Tan Stewie because he acted the same way
