Amy’s Mum Fail of the Year: The Night She Forgot Dinner

It’s another delightfully chaotic Saturday with Chris & Amy, as Amy kicks off the show declaring Robert Irwin “too pretty” before spiralling into nostalgia about Steve Irwin, knock-off fashion labels, and why she refuses to wear anything that says “Beij Fox.” The pair tackle the ethics of Temu and Shein, Christmas shopping panic, and Amy’s Black Friday obsession — including her annual PSA to never shop on December 24 unless you enjoy being “sucker punched” by full-price items. Then Chris takes Amy “around the world” — from anti-vax dating apps to AI doctors diagnosing patients in two seconds — while Amy critiques Trump’s saliva levels. The chaos continues with the viral Bird Test, where Chris secretly records Amy’s brutally uninterested reaction (“I don’t care for birds”), sparking a full breakdown of whether she and Ryan would survive the experiment. Later, the pair debut their new segment Nailed It or Failed It, where Amy’s parenting win (her six-year-old suddenly learning to read) is immediately overshadowed by her fail: completely forgetting to feed her children dinner. Chris follows up with his own parenting disaster involving kids, swear words, and trying to explain why some words are so bad they’re worse than the F-bomb. Short, shambolic, relatable — Classic Chris & Amy.
