Drew Barrymore's Talk Show Faces Controversy and Production Pause Amid Strikes
Drew Barrymore has decided to postpone the premiere of her daytime talk show, "The Drew Barrymore Show," until the ongoing Hollywood labor strike is resolved. Barrymore faced criticism for initially planning to resume taping the show without writers, violating WGA guidelines. The decision to delay the premiere comes after backlash and the National Book Awards rescinding Barrymore's hosting invitation. Other talk shows, such as "The Jennifer Hudson Show" and "The Talk," have also resumed despite the strike, as they do not have union writers. Barrymore apologized for her initial decision and expressed hope for a resolution in the industry soon.
