Shrek is arguably one of the greatest animated franchises ever made, with fans loving the adaptation of the classic children’s picture book by William Steig. In the franchise, actor Eddie Murphy voices the iconic sidekick Donkey. In an interview, Murphy admitted that Donkey is one of the most hilarious characters in the series.

As a result, the comedian-actor felt that Donkey was more deserving of a solo spin-off movie compared to the likes of Puss in Boots. Since the latter has already appeared in two solo movies, Murphy made a strong case for a Donkey spin-off. Here is what Murphy had to say about his only condition for a Donkey spin-off after Shrek 5.

As one of Bravo’s most popular shows, Below Deck has no shortage of fans, including well-known celebrities. The franchise has always cast a wide net of appeal to star on the show. It allows viewers to relate with and root for those hard at work, and to enjoy the lavish yacht lifestyle. The formula even intrigues A-listers, who have likely been on yachts before.

When celebrity guests come on Watch What Happens Live, it’s not just to promote themselves, but also to promote Bravo. As someone with a lot of influence at Bravo, Andy Cohen always steers the conversation toward the channel’s original programming, allowing celebrities to express their opinions of the content, and give some praise to the shows. With all the franchise’s drama, Below Deck is no exception.
