The available photometric and spectroscopic data on the planetary nebulae in the Magellanic Clouds are discussed. Recent results regarding the distribution of the planetary nebulae in the Clouds and the kinematics of the Clouds are presented. Masses are determined for selected planetary nebulae in the Clouds, and the question about the most likely average mass is considered. The evolutionary tracks of the nuclei for two values of the average mass are compared with the actual positions in the HR diagram of the nuclei of the planetary nebulae in the Clouds.
