Drew Barrymore Daytime Talk Show Pilot In The Works
This fall, new talkers from Tamron Hall and Kelly Clarkson will be part of the daytime television landscape, and now comes word that Drew Barrymore may enter the space with a new talk show for her that is in development with the pilot being shot this coming week.
According to Variety, details of the proposed one-hour show are not all clear, but Drew is said to be one of the executive producers of the pilot episode and yet there is no showrunner attached to the project at this time. Barrymore’s company, Flower Films is likely attached as well.
Back in 2016, Barrymore had a deal in place with Warner Brothers Telepictures for a talk show, but that never came to pass, in part to a lukewarm response from TV station groups at that time.
However now the new regime at CBS’ syndication arm is said to have ‘high hopes’ for the show and they feel that Drew will appeal and do well in the daytime arena.
Barrymore recently appeared in her third season of Netflix’s Santa Clarita Diet in its 30 episode season. Through her Flower Films she was been an executive producer on unscripted series including TLC’s Rattled and VH1’s Tough Love.
So, would you be interested. or intrigued to see what kind of show Drew Barrymore has to offer in daytime? Think she would be a good host? Share your thoughts via the comment section below.

No no no, we have enough talk shows. I love Drew, please stick to acting.
Stefano…oh I agree…TOTALLY!!!!! I cannot imagine Drew having her own talk show. Nope. To me, Drew needs to stick to acting…PERIOD!!!!!
I don’t understand how anyone can sit through an hour of mostly bs opinion talk lol
that is so crazy..
Seriously- can anyone tell me the entertainment worth of listening to gossipy opinions ..
Perhaps lonely people feel it’s their company of the day, a conversation brought into their home or some such thing.
ie( The view is way off the track its stupid arguing and stupider opinions, and now another one!
I just don’t understand that mindset.
but- some love that stuff, go figure..
I don’t watch but many times there are clips in news stories etc, they’re all loonies! lol
perhaps that’s the entertainment- watching the loonies!
It’s too bad that Drew’s zombie sitcom got cancelled, but a talk show is a bad move for her. It’s already an over saturated market and most of them fail.
Please no more talk shows crowding up tv lineups. If I am going to spend 1 hour watching tv, it will be binge-watching one of my favorite drama soaps.
Instead of continuing to go down the talk show route, why are more networks not chasing more game shows. It seems “Jeopardy,” “Wheel of Fortune,” and “Let’s Make a Deal” have been successful for years. I would love to see “Concentration” and “Password” come back.
I can’t imagine any news with less impact than a new talk show!

In a heartfelt posting on his Instagram, Galen shared special thanks to all of his fans who watched his during his run in Salem.
Gering expressed: “Thank you all so much for the incredible birthday wishes. I’ve always seen birthdays as a day of reflection, an opportunity to look back at where I’ve been and where I’m going. So, it’s oddly befitting that today also happens to be my last day at Days. Man…I have such great memories from the last 10 years. Onscreen I’ve fought for marriages and fought evil twins. I’ve put people in prison and been imprisoned. And offscreen, I’ve made friendships that I will have for a lifetime. All the while, I’ve been so fortunate to have the love and support of the greatest fans in the world. I hope you know how thankful I am to have had you at my side. With that said, the journey continues and I hope to bring you along for the ride. Thanks for the memories Days of our Lives. Like sands through the hourglass… Love Y’all”
