One of the world’s biggest TV shows labeled a 'Shrek' rip-off

'House of the Dragon' fans are drawing parallels between the show and the 'Shrek' film. In season 2, episode 7, Rhaenyra Targaryen's speech to potential dragon riders closely mirrors Lord Farquaad's line about sacrifice. Fans also noted Rhaenyra's red outfit, similar to Farquaad's. Scenes involving Alicent Hightower and a dragon chase also evoke 'Shrek' moments. The comparisons have persisted since the show's debut.
