Chrindsay is the friendship between Chris and Lindsay from the Total Drama fandom.
Canon[]
Lindsay is one of the few contestants who Chris thinks of positively, and seems to favor her more than Chef and the other contestants, giving her special treatment. Likewise, Lindsay rarely shows open hatred for Chris and generally gets along with him. As part of Lindsay's name running gag, Lindsay gets the host's name wrong on many occasions: referring to him as Kyle or Chip sometimes.
Upon seeing Lindsay arrive in “Not So Happy Campers Part 1”, Chris remarks that she’s ’not too shabby’, in reference to her looks. Lindsay fails to recognize Chris, however. But he manages to jog her memory by reminding her that he is the host of the show. Lindsay gets Chris's name wrong when thanking him for the marshmallow waxing in “No Pain, No Game”.
Chris teases Lindsay about her hiding spots in “Hide and Be Sneaky”. Near the start of the challenge, Chris keeps finding Lindsay and makes fun of her poor hiding skills. When she tries to hide underneath the blanket on one of the camper's bed, Chris immediately alerts Chef to her location, causing Lindsay to run away in fear. Chris also finds her hiding inside one of the stalls and plays a small game of "Knock Knock" before telling her to try harder if she wants to win. After she ran away again, Chris states that Lindsay is a goner.
Chris angrily flicks Lindsay’s nose after she interrupted his speech in “Monster Cash”. After running out of objects to throw at Duncan in “Beach Blanket Bogus”, Chris now resorts to throwing an already injured Lindsay instead. Chris pits Harold and Lindsay for the boxing challenge in “Million Dollar Babies” due to their poor performance during the training exercise. Despite Lindsay successfully knocking out Harold, Chris declares Harold as the winner of the challenge instead of her. He then tells a confused Lindsay that Harold gained extra points for performing slow motion stunts and says that she has poor sportsmanship while calling her "Miss Tyson." Angered with the unfair results, Lindsay attempts to attack Chris only for her team to restrain her from doing so.
While judging costumes in “Super Hero-ld”, Chris is shown to be very fond of Lindsay's Wonder Woman outfit, and ignores Courtney's protests of Lindsay's outfit being unoriginal. He also gives her full points for the modelling challenge since he is a fan of the original Wonder Woman when he was young. Courtney once again protests and despite threatening to call her lawyers again, Chris refuses to reverse his decision and deems Lindsay the winner of the first challenge. Chris also deducts two points from Courtney for "stepping" on Lindsay's "invisible jet". He and the other guys then playfully agree to join Lindsay in her "invisible jet." In “The Princess Pride”, Chris chose Lindsay and Courtney to try on the glass boot to see who gets to be the princess for challenge since they won two of the challenges of the previous episode. Much to everyone's surprise and Lindsay's embarrassment, she had big feet. Chris struggles to put the boot into Lindsay's foot, saying that its like "trying to jam a T-Rex into a smart car and buckle it." Ultimately, Chris gives up since the boot can only fit Lindsay's big toe and let Courtney try the boot instead. While Chris is explaining the challenge to the contestants in “Rock n’ Rule”, Lindsay asks Chris whether playing a guitar is similar to playing a recorder to which Chris sarcastically replies that both instruments are very similar. As he talks about how the guitar will electrocute them if they are not playing properly and that they will not be able to play the piano again once they recovered, Lindsay states that she is not worried since she couldn't play the piano anyway. Chris then adds that she also will not be able to use her phone too. Upon hearing this, Lindsay starts to scream in agony. When Lindsay won the second part of the challenge, Chris congratulates her by giving her a thumbs up. Chris is annoyed by Lindsay’s “question” to the finalists in Total Drama Action's finale “The Aftermath IV”.
Lindsay is excited to be in Paris in “Can't Help Falling In Louvre”, and she again explains that she wants to go shopping, this time with Tyler. However, Chris is explaining the challenge and silences her by shutting her lips, and again tells her that they aren't here to shop. Before Lindsay takes the Drop of Shamethat night, she and Tyler are about to share a kiss, but Chris interrupts them as the show is about over. Right before she jumps, Lindsay blows a kiss to Tyler, but is once again stopped by Chris. In an exclusive clip where Chris is interviewed by a fan named Erin, the host admits he’d wanted Lindsay to win Total Drama World Tour.

Because of the fondness Chris shared for Lindsay and the mostly comedic interactions between the two, Chrindsay has been shipped both platonically and romantically; the latter causing many fans' discomfort due to the age gap. Currently 8 “Chris & Lindsay” works exist on A03.
