- Pop-Culture Urban Legends:
- Popular rumor is that there was a short lived character called "the Griddler" associated with the McGriddle. No proof of him exists. It doesn't help that the McGriddle wasn't introduced until 2003, the year that McDonaldland was phased out.
- It's been alleged that Uncle O'Grimacey was removed from advertising because an actor making a personal appearance in the suit voiced strident pro-Irish Republican Army sentiments, but this was actually a joke riffing on a 1997 piece
in The Onion linking O'Grimacey to the IRA, that nonetheless got taken seriously by some readers.
- Role Reprise: Russi Taylor, Charlie Adler, and Frank Welker returned to voice Birdie, Hamburglar, and Grimace for two stage shows (Ronald McDonald & Friends Friendship Adventure Show and Musical Show of Ronald McDonald respectively) starring Ronald and friends between 2013 and 2014. This also marked one of the final times Taylor was able to voice Birdie before her passing on July 26, 2019.
- You Sound Familiar: Howard Morris (who voiced the Hamburglar from 1985 on) previously voiced Mayor McCheese.
