* ''WesternAnimation/PeppaPig'' is allegedly responsible for American kids developing British accents. This rumour started in 2019, but resurfaced in 2021, when COVID limited the amount of contact people could have with each other, meaning that kids could get most of their exposure to English speech from TV.

** There are numerous rumors about ''WesternAnimation/ThomasAndTheMagicRailroad'', largely due to its TroubledProduction:
*** The nature of cut villain P.T. Boomer. Originally he was only known from a MissingTrailerScene and brief mentions in a tie-in product. One rumor was that he would try to tear down Shining Time Station to build a highway, and some sources corrupted his name as "Pete Boom". A lot of these misconceptions were cleared up once the screenplay was found.
*** Whether or not scenes from the script including George the steamroller and Cranky the crane were ever filmed.
*** The existence of a finished "director's cut" from before the film was re-edited.
** Nearly every new series is preceded with rumors of a [[ChuckCunninghamSyndrome long lost character or location]] reappearing. On rare occasions, these are correct. However, after Andrew Brenner became the head writer and started consciously including older characters, the rumors became even more plausible.
** [[https://www.reddit.com/r/answers/comments/51170m/does_anybody_remember_that_thomas_the_tank_engine/ According to a Reddit user]], he said that he remembered seeing an earlier ''Thomas the Tank Engine'' film when he was a kid. He mentioned that the film was similar to ''Thomas and the Magic Railroad'' and had the Music/KylieMinogue version of the song "The Locomotion" at the end of the film. It is unknown if this film is true or not, but it did sound like he was telling the truth. If this film is true, then it might've fallen into obscurity and might've been easily forgotten. A possible theory to this might've been that either he was one of the test audiences that watched the director's cut of ''Thomas and the Magic Railroad'', or he saw a screening of the 1995 test footage that was edited into one whole film.
*** [[https://forums.lostmediawiki.com/thread/901/reddit-remembered-earlier-thomas-film Another user from a reply]] saw the exact same film with his mother in theaters once, and was traumatized by it, which makes it seem like that the film the Reddit user was talking about was DarkerAndEdgier.

** There is a screenshot of a ''WesternAnimation/GravityFalls'' episode circulating around the internet that shows Dipper and Mabel with [[Franchise/TheSlenderManMythos the Slender Man]] watching from behind. The screenshot is actually fake; viewing the episode itself yields no Slender Man. Creator Alex Hirsch would actually comment on this in one interview, noting that one of the first times he overheard someone talk about the show after its premiere was a child telling someone that this rumor was true. Hirsch would pay homage to the rumor by giving the Slender Man a one-panel cameo in the "Face It" story of the post-series graphic novel ''ComicBook/GravityFallsLostLegends''.

** The wiki once had a page that claimed that an episode would contain [[HappyBirthdayToYou a birthday song lampshading that you can't sing the actual "Happy Birthday" song on TV]]. Not only was this false because the song was public domain by that time, but the lyrics on the page in question actually came from an episode of ''WebAnimation/TheTrashPack''.
** [[https://www.imdb.com/title/tt11992456/episodes/?season=2 IMDB has listings for many fake episodes of the show]]. These included a WeddingEpisode and one about watching fireworks. Not only did this happen, there were fake references to the show in other media listed, some of which involved merchandise that didn't exist appearing in other TV shows and movies. Both edits seem to be done by the same person.
** It is rumored that whoever holds control over these maintains several dozen accounts throughout the web, all under different or similar names.

** A post occasionally circulates on social media claiming to show an episode from the year 2000 that exactly predicts Donald Trump's announcement of his presidential campaign, down to the shape of his logo. This is incredibly misleading. While an episode from around then ''did'' feature a joke about Trump being President (said by a future President Lisa), the screenshot in question comes from a short that was made shortly ''after'' Trump declared his candidacy. (The joke about Trump running for President back in 2000 was specifically a shot at his campaign during said election on the Reform Party ticket, although he lost the nomination to Pat Buchanan. It was this desire which caused him to write his first book about politics The America We Deserve.)
