\n Though \u201cThe Drew Barrymore Show\u201d is preparing to go back on the air, its three head writers have declined to return with it. The development comes less than a month after Barrymore found herself in a firestorm of controversy for announcing a return to production before the WGA strike concluded.<\/p>\n

\n A source close to the talk show shared that the three writers \u2014\u00a0Chelsea White, Cristina Kinon and Liz Koe\u2014 were offered deals after the WGA strike order was lifted on Sept. 27. The trio, who shared the position of co-head writer on the series<\/a>, declined. <\/p>\n

\n The talk show is set to broadcast its first new episode in months on Oct. 16. New writers are now being interviewed to replace the trio.<\/p>\n

\n Barrymore became a prominent target of union criticism in the final weeks of the WGA strike. The host announced plans for her talk show to return before the guild reached a new contract with the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers, publicly doubling-down on her decision with a now-deleted apology video posted on social media<\/a>, in which she stated \u201cI own this choice\u201d regarding the return. After that statement only amplified the controversy, Barrymore reversed her decision two days later.<\/p>\n

\n \u201cI have listened to everyone, and I am making the decision to pause the show\u2019s premiere until the strike is over,\u201d Barrymore wrote on Instagram on Sept. 17. \u201cI have no words to express my deepest apologies to anyone I have hurt and, of course, to our incredible team who works on the show and has made it what it is today. We really tried to find our way forward. And I truly hope for a resolution for the entire industry very soon.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n Ahead of Barrymore\u2019s reversal, the WGA released a statement against the decision to begin shooting again: \u201cDrew Barrymore should not be on the air while her writers are on strike fighting for a fair deal. In reality, shows like this cannot operate without writing, and that is struck work.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n The Hollywood Reporter was first to report news<\/a> of Barrymore\u2019s writers electing to leave the program.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n
