- Oh, my God. - Oh, my God, Drew.
- Oh, my God.
- That was the sweetest intro.
Damn. - But, I actually need advice.
- Oh, please.
- Because I don't know how (sighs) you're a mom.
- [Kathryn] Yeah.
- I don't know how
to be sexy- - You look so fabulous,
by the way. - And a mom.
- Well, you're pulling it off!
(audience cheering)
Well, forget it!
No advice to give!
- Like, as a woman,
I feel like you're like my best girlfriend.
- Okay. - As, like,
a creature with a barely alive libido.
I look at you and I'm like, "She's so hot."
(Kathryn gasping)
And I mean, you're doing "Agatha" right now.
Your Agatha! - I know.
(audience cheering)
I love her so much.
I love a witch.
I feel like that this is exactly
the part I should be playing at this stage in my life.
And I gotta tell you,
we got the hottest coven on the planet in this show.
I'm very excited- - Sexy.
- For you all to see this coven.
- I was grilling you about it the last time,
I was like, "Are there any secrets, any spoilers?"
Obviously that Marvel Universe,
I feel like warns you that- - Yes.
- You cannot say a word. - Yes.
And in fact, I know less than I did last time.
It continues to unfold in ways that are surprising to me.
I can tell you it's in outer space this time and-
- It is? - No!
- 'Cause that looked like suburbia.
- Yeah, right, exactly.
We keep saying we're just gonna make up different locales
for it every time we talk about it.
So this time it's actually, it's just gonna be completely,
it's gonna be a silent film this time.
(audience laughing) There's gonna be no talking
at all in "Agatha"
this time around. - I could watch you
in a silent film.
I could watch you do anything.
- Oh, Drew Barrymore! (audience applauding)
- It's true!
It's true and this new show...
But wait!
- Oh, I love it! - It's a good thing-
- I'm so happy right now. - I just happened
to shave my legs for you. (Kathryn screaming)
(audience applauding) Shaved.
- I have not, so, like we can compare.
I definitely have not. - Oh, yes.
(Kathryn laughing) (audience clapping)
By the way, touching your leg, you are shaved.
- Okay, that's good to know.
- I haven't shaved-
- Not a little, there's a little bit of, but it's fine.
- No, no, no, it's pure as the driven snow.
- [Kathryn] Okay, great.
- It's perfect.
- This is a whole different ballgame.
- But no one shaves right now. - Do you shave often?
- Like- - No.
- It took me three months to finally get to shave.
- [Kathryn] Yes.
- I feel like I had a full blown movie makeover
just by that. - Me too.
(audience laughing)
Because I have been like deep in it, work-wise,
and all clothes have been covering all that part of my body,
it's the last thing I think about.
And it has been so liberating. - Yes.
- Like, I'm like, "Ugh,"
because like, you know, I know summer's around the corner
and blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
But like right now, I'm like, it's all, honestly,
I shaved for you not knowing what I was gonna
be wearing. - I think I
subconsciously shaved for you.
(audience laughing)
Your new show is not only my favorite new show.
- Oh, true.
- It's so entertaining
but it also pulls at my heartstrings so much.
It's emotional.
It has a very cool tone. (Kathryn chuckles)
Like this is not your mother's show in the sense of like,
there's a modernity. - Yeah.
- There's an emotionality and you're an advice columnist,
you become one. - Yes.
She's not great, you know,
she's not right in her real life, she's not quite there yet.
But through writing these,
through answering these letters that she's been receiving,
she kind of finds a voice
that she doesn't know that she has.
Liz Tigelaar adapted this book by Cheryl Strayed called,
"Tiny Beautiful Things," which is a collection
of her advice columns under the name anonymous,
titled "Dear Sugar" that she had been writing
for this online magazine called "The Rumpus"
for a long time.
It's essential human reading, if you haven't read it.
It's like incredible letters and responses.
- It also made me question like,
who is the person giving us advice
and what is their real life like?
- [Kathryn] Yeah.
- And we have a clip.
Let's just take a look. - Yeah.
- Let's just start with how you're feeling.
- I am feeling hungry.
I am feeling tired.
I'm feeling like a shell of a person.
Like I'm staring into an abyss.
- No, I get it.
I mean, I'm not there yet, but I think it's really common
for women your age to feel this way, okay.
You've spoken before about your insecurities
with getting older.
- I thought we were talking about me giving money
to my brother? - And with the
age gap between you and Danny.
- It's not that big. - And the way
our society treats women over 50 as irrelevant.
- I'm 49.
(audience applauding)
- Oh, my god.
Kathryn, because we are here
and I wanna learn how to live a life through this show.
- Okay. - Like, you know,
I'm not playing a character, I'm me.
I'm always learning from everything everybody says.
- Me too, woman.
- I mean, I'm just a big old sponge.
Will you get into, like, Dear Sugar
and give our audience some advice?
- I can do the best I can. (audience applauding)
- Kathryn's offering up some words of wisdom
and a surprise question from one of her old co-stars
when we come back.
