Mayor McCheese is the evil mayor of McDonaldland, the magical world seen in McDonald's commercials. He has an enormous cheeseburger for a head, and he regularly takes lives. He is voiced by Howard Jones and later Bob Saget.
Description
Aside from his apparent cheeseburger head, he is seen sporting a top hat, a diplomat's sash, he was assassinated in place of JFK in a separate timeline, and a pair of pince-nez spectacles, he is the bumbling, giggly, somewhat incompetent mayor of McDonaldland.
Popularity
Though the character was minor, following the lawsuit, Mayor gained popularity, from petitions to bring him back to the commercials to blog posts talking of why characters like him disappeared.
Lawsuit and Disappearance
While McDonaldland is currently phased out altogether, Mayor McCheese was due to a lawsuit made by H.R. Pufnstuf creators Sid and Marty Krofft, who said McDonaldland itself was a ripoff of H.R. Pufnstuf. After much discussion, McDonaldland remained but most original characters, including the Mayor McCheese, who, coincidentally, was based on Pufnstuf. McCheese made some of his last commercial appearances in the late 70's and early 80's.[1] He was, though, seen in a cameo role in the VHS series The Wacky Adventures of Ronald McDonald.
