The Wacky Adventures of Ronald McDonald is an American animated miniseries of retail direct-to-video episodes produced by Klasky Csupo in association with the McDonald's Corporation, centering on McDonald's mascot Ronald McDonald and the gang in McDonaldland. A total of six 40-minute episodes were produced and released on VHS exclusively in participating McDonald's restaurants from October 9, 1998 to January 30, 2003.

Mark and Bob Mothersbaugh (best known for composing the music for Rugrats, another Klasky Csupo series) composed the score of the series while John Holmquist (who has also directed some Rugrats episodes) directed the first episode of the series. The artistic style of the series has a similar look to Rugrats and Rocket Power (another Klasky Csupo series). The background music was recycled from later episodes of Rugrats.

In a format similar to The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!, each episode starts and ends with a live-action segment.

By various accounts, the episodes turned out to be rather popular, to which individual McDonald's locations frequently ran out of VHS tapes, which were sold individually for $3.49 and could be bought with a small vanilla ice cream cone or Diet Coke. Klasky Csupo also sold them through their online gift shop, which was shut down in fall 2005.

A Happy Meal featuring Lego vehicles to build was released at the restaurant chain in 1999, a year after the series originally premiered. The front of each vehicle had an image of one of the McDonaldland characters in the Klasky Csupo style, as depicted in the series.

Ronald and his friends go on a camping trip in the Far-Flung Forest, where Ronald discovers an old house which he assumes is haunted by a ghost called the Far-Flung Phantom. Due to a sudden bout of stormy weather, the campers are forced to stay in the old house, where a holographic head named Franklin leads them through a challenging game which will eventually help them to escape. Along the way, the Fry Kids and McNuggets get caught in traps and are separated from the group and the rest face off against Franklin in a challenge of riddles. Tika, Hamburglar, and Birdie fail each riddle and are swept into traps, leaving only Ronald, Grimace, and Sundae to solve the final one, which they do. The holographic head turns out to be a child named Franklin programming the game with help from Tika (who wanted to give Ronald a challenge) and the McNuggets in a lab room. After Ronald gets a "You Win" out of Franklin, the scientist Dr. Quizzical returns to catch his son Franklin in the act and releases the others from their traps. Upon the group officially meeting Dr. Quizzical, he states that he had to leave a lecture he was giving early when he saw lightning on the mountain and that Franklin has done something like this before. Franklin apologizes to Ronald and the gang for his actions and is allowed to join their camping trip, becoming their new friend in the process.

Note: The 1998 Klasky Csupo logo makes its debut on this episode.
