In "A.N.N.A. Rules", the finale song of Peter Griffin's The King and I, performed in "The King Is Dead", A.N.N.A. believes there's no one as tough as she is, just as surely as Lynde was gay.
Lynde appears as McAfee in "Peter's Progress", greeting King Stewart III.
Seth MacFarlane also uses Lynde's voice as the inspiration for Roger on American Dad!. Roger appeared at the end of "Meet the Quagmires", the Mos Eisley cantina in Blue Harvest, and as Tiaan Jerjerrod in It's A Trap!.
