I’ve always thought the Farley version wouldn’t have been as successful because he isn’t character-y as a voice actor, but I think you’re right. After hearing that clip, Farley’s Shrek sounds kind of cute and lovable, and the arch of wanting to be a knight gives him some guidance that isn’t “Well, Shrek is there and then some stuff happens.”

Weird thing about Eels, my friend's dad is their drummer.

The first time this episode aired, my husband and I watched Shrek for the first time in 20 years in anticipation, and we paired the viewing with "Shamrock Shreks" (it was last March): A Mcdonald's Shamrock Shake with absinthe, because both are green like Shrek. It was a blast, if anyone wants a fun date night idea, but the downside is, probably thanks to all that absinthe we both walked away thinking Shrek was an absolute masterpiece, so it might not be worth it in the end.

Actually, nearly all of it was fully recorded before his death. The recordings exist, they’ve just been buried in the Dreamworks vault aside from that one clip
I still wish Chris Farley's dialogue as Shrek would have been recorded before he died. It seemed like his line readings provide more emotional depth to that character in the one clip I heard.
