Drew Barrymore Pauses Talk Show Due to Backlash Over Filming During Hollywood Writers' Strike

Drew Barrymore decided to pause her daytime talk show due to the Hollywood writers' strike after facing backlash.

She had initially planned to resume filming but received criticism from striking writers' and actors' unions.

Other talk shows like Bill Maher's "Real Time" still plan to return during the strike without written pieces.

The Writers Guild of America said it would be difficult for Maher to comply with strike rules as a WGA member.

Barrymore apologized for hurting anyone by initially deciding to continue filming and will now pause until the strike ends.
