In this review we address the progress that has been made toward the understanding of Magellanic Cloud planetary nebulae (PNe) and their evolution since the last Magellanic Cloud Symposium. Planetary nebulae in the Magellanic Clouds are the key probes of stellar and circumstellar evolution, both for their known distances and relative vicinity, and for their broad metallicity range A selection of recent results is presented, including the HST study of PNe and their central stars, the study of the population of Magellanic Cloud PNe based on abundance analysis, the recent Spitzer analysis of their dust contents, and the use of Magellanic Cloud PNe to constrain the distance scale of Galactic PNe.
