Shrek

Shrek is a recurring character and theme in Chaps videos. Before Chaps were created, especially newcastlemhull and Stelios78910 were going ogre-board in Shrek references and ogre-iffic puns whilst the disgruntled TaleOfTheToaster scorned at the two. Upon creation of Chaps, Mickey placed Shrek in his GCN Sherbert Land segment for Top 8 Mario Kart 8 Retro Tracks in describing the track as having layers of depth. From then on, Stelios and Mickey made a Chaps rule to place Shrek into every Chaps countdown in some way.

Oh yeah Shrek was in the intro first actually when Toad fell into the water of Royal Raceway.

Who better to insert the next Shrek cameo that the one and only trendsetter - newcastlemhull. Appearing in literally the first frame of his Catfish segment, he didn't hesitate there pet!

After Mr12603 had been introduced as a Chap in the segment previous, emphasising Tom Nook's practices with the line 'any chump can be a money grabbing asshole', briefly before being swarmed by Tom Nook Faces, money from Shrek Monopoly appears for under a second with Puss in Boots, the Three Blind Mice, Donkey, Fiona and finally Shrek appearing.

After a whopping four videos plugged in the endslate, Stelios felt it was too overwhelming to have the credits happen simultaneously with the endslate, so a small credits skit happened after with more honorable mentions that didn't make the intro. This list included Princess Rosalina from Super Mario... twice, Graham from King's Quest and the mighty King Shrek of Far Far Away lifting up Prince Charming from the Xbox 360 Edition of Shrek the Third to King Dedede's Theme from Kirby Super Star as the credits rolled.

WHAT? THERE WAS NO SHREK IN THIS COUNTDOWN?! WHAT THE SHREK. Oh was it because Tale hosted? Oh because Michael forgot? Fucking scrub.

To compensate in [Top 5 Trees https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m3grhpAyghw] at 1:31 onwards the non-beaches crew slotted Shrek into their intro with L0TUS wailing "one more pun out of you and I'll Shrek it, two more and I'll crie." Trail being the nasty deviant that he is declared another pun. And L0TUS' ultimatum proceeded and he Shreked it as Shrek overtook and cut the brief intro to an end.

Trivia

 * Furthermore, Puss in Boots from Shrek Super Slam's intro also appeared for a second in Top 9 Cats under Rider0fLightning's line "yet when choosing an animal to profile for this list, we were surprised that compared to other media (puss appears) cats aren't as prominent as other animals." What a cat.
