"THE DREW BARRYMORE SHOW" RENEWED FOR SEASON SIX THROUGH 2025/2026 SEASON

The Syndicated Daytime Series Earns Time Period Upgrades in Seven of the Top 20 Markets This Fall

Season Five Premieres with All-New Episodes on Sept. 9

LOS ANGELES - Aug. 22, 2024 - THE DREW BARRYMORE SHOW has been renewed for a sixth season on CBS Stations and earned significant time period upgrades in seven of the top 20 markets just ahead of the daytime show's fifth season, it was announced today by Wendy McMahon, president and CEO of CBS News and Stations and CBS Media Ventures.

The season six renewal will take the daytime show through the 2025-2026 season. The fifth season pickup was announced in January 2024 and will premiere with all-new episodes on Monday, Sept. 9.

"Drew is a one-of-a-kind talent who is an integral part of the CBS and Paramount family," McMahon said. "This early renewal and upgrades are a testament to our commitment to THE DREW BARRYMORE SHOW and its loyal audience, who tune in every day to see Drew's warmth, inquisitiveness and spontaneity."

This fall, THE DREW BARRYMORE SHOW will move to upgraded time slots on CBS stations in six markets, including five of the top 10 markets, as well as a station and time slot upgrade in Houston.

"Over the last few seasons, stations have realized that THE DREW BARRYMORE SHOW is like no other series in daytime, bringing Drew's brand of positivity and ad-friendly content to viewers on a consistent basis," McMahon added. "Many of these upgrades now pair DREW with a CBS MORNINGS lead-in, which has proven to be a powerful combination. This season, in markets where DREW airs at 9:00 AM, its ratings are +21% higher among total viewers when CBS MORNINGS is the lead-in."

The series will air in an hour block at 9:00 AM, leading out of CBS MORNINGS in the following markets:

· New York (#1) WCBS

· Dallas (#5) KTVT

· Boston (#8) WBZ

The series was also upgraded on CBS stations to air in an hour block at 3:00 PM in the following markets:

· Philadelphia (#4) KYW

· San Francisco (#10) KPIX

· Miami (#18) WFOR

Additionally, THE DREW BARRYMORE SHOW moved to NBC affiliate KPRC in Houston (#6), airing in an hour block at 10:00 AM.

THE DREW BARRYMORE SHOW is averaging 1.1 million viewers, with nearly 6 billion minutes watched this season. The series has shown strong momentum across local markets this season, growing viewership by +8% in the first quarter of 2024 over the prior quarter, outpacing its key talk competitors. The series also has significant reach on digital and social platforms, with Facebook growth accelerating by a whopping +600% year to year and Instagram engagements up by +72% year to year.
