(Hollywood Reporter) LAS VEGAS -- Heeeeere's Stewie! The tyrannical tyke in the Fox animated series "Family Guy" will be the virtual host of a talk show being developed strictly for the Internet later this year, said Ross Levinsohn, president of Fox Interactive Media, during a NATPE panel session. Stewie's show would be based on familyguy.com and other News Corp.-owned Web properties catering to the young demographics that have embraced the Fox series. "We think that the property is perfectly suited for that audience," Levinsohn said. Levinsohn added that the idea for the show has been embraced on Madison Avenue by potential advertisers. He does not expect the program to cannibalize viewing for the Fox series or other "Family" brand extensions like DVD. Stewie wouldn't be the first animated character to get his own talk show; that distinction belongs to "Space Ghost Coast to Coast," which aired on Cartoon Network.
