- Memetic Mutation: The hall closet seems to be the only element of the entire show that anybody actually knows about or remembers. Jim Jordan himself in later years often remarked that "people think Fibber McGee and Molly was a closet." And even today, the phrase "Fibber McGee's closet" is still occasionally used in the vernacular to denote any place that's cluttered or disorganized.
- Parody Displacement: This show is by and large survived by the numerous Warner Bros. and MGM cartoons which referenced it and, in some cases, co-opted its catchphrases as their own.
- Retroactive Recognition: Bill Thompson is best known as the voice of Droopy, the White Rabbit, Mr. Smee, Jock, and J. Audubon Woodlore. But this show is where he first rose to fame.
