Stewie addresses Harvard

I don't get it.....Can you give me some background?

Edited to add: Uhh, Nevermind, I looked it up. I'm such a dope. I don't watch The Family Guy
 
For those of you from the UK: Is Stewie's English passable as the Queens English, or a poor impression.

Do you mean the words or the accent?

The accent sounds like an American affecting an upper class English accent. It does bear a faint resemblance to a genuine upper class English accent, in much the same way that Dick Van Dyke's accent in Mary Poppins resembles a cockney accent. Although I'm sure it's intentionally bad in the case of Stewie. His words feature as many Americanisms as the rest of the Family Guy characters, so they wouldn't fool the Queen either.
