Kelly Ripa and her husband Mark Consuelos were faced with a challenge in which they had to fit as many sweaters on Mark as they could.
Their adjudicator explained: "Here's what I'm looking for. You're putting one sweater on at a time, you have thirty seconds.
"The sweater has to be pulled down to the waist before you move on to the next one.
After the duo confirmed that they understood the exact rules, Kelly turned to the audience and said: "I hate this by the way."

The judge then shared: "The mark to beat is currently nine, you need ten sweaters to break the record."
Kelly and Mark moved to the top of the row of sweaters to get ready for their attempt.
Kelly, 52, hilariously said: "I feel like I should take my skirt off and potentially my bra."
The audience broke into peals of laughter, as the TV hosts kneeled to start the challenge.

Unfortunately, the married couple only managed six sweaters in the allotted time, meaning that the Guinness World Record remained unbroken.
LIVE NOT LIVELY
Earlier this week, fans voiced their disappointment with the direction of the show.
During Kelly's opening spiel at the beginning of the show, she shared an embarrassing fact about Mark, 52.
The actress explained that she had begun recording her husband relaxing because he badly snored; however, instead of copping to it, he blamed one of their dogs.
Though some viewers found the segment funny, many fans were unamused, expressing their dissatisfaction with the couple's live moment on Twitter.
"Kelly And Mark show is just dumb! This morning they were talking about how Mark snores at night! Had to instantly change the channel at my job," one fan tweeted.
A second ranted: "I don't see this show lasting... I'm not interested in watching a spinoff of NY Housewives...."
A third person expressed: "Day 2 of watching. I mean it's not bad but I am pretty sure there were other people who could've been a replacement for Ryan Seacrest. Mark looks uncomfortable."
Someone else noted: "Right out of the box talking about those ‘kids’- boring and unbearable."
Fans continued to rant that they felt that Mark wasn't a suitable replacement for Kelly's longtime co-host Ryan Seacrest.
"I'm not really feeling the morning show without Ryan Seacrest anymore," a fan admitted.
A second fan criticized: "This the worst decision. Horrible cohosts. There was no one else who could cohost with Kelly Ripa? Please bring back Ryan!"
