CHECK OUT DOING IT JUST THE WAY SHE PLANNED.
OH MY GOD.

>> James: DREW, YOU'RE HERE.
>> THANKS FOR THE SONG, GUYS, I WAS TOTALLY LOST IN THE MUSIC

>> WELL, I AM-- .
>> Reggie: YEAH WITHIN I DRESSED UP FOR YOU.
>> James: I LOVE IT.
>> AND I GOT TO COMMENT ON YOUR WAFER EL TIE WHICH IS ONE OF MY
FAVORITES AND NOBODY WEARS IT.
AND YOU ARE YOU THINK ABOUTING IT IT.
>> James: THANK YOU, THANK YOU.
FINALLY SOMEONE SAID IT.
>> I, IF YOU DON'T MIND, MAY I TAKE A MOMENT TO SAY THAT YOU
SAID SOMETHING ON CBS THIS MORNING.
>> James: OH GOD.
>> THAT HAS NOT ONLY CHANGED MY LIFE, IT IS SOMETHING THAT I
WANT TO BLAST ON MEGA PHONES.
I WANT TO SKY WRITE.
AND I THINK IT NEEDS TO BECOME A MOVEMENT.
>> James: WHAT DID I SAY?
>> YOU SAID, AND I'M GOING TO PARAPHRASE, YOU KNOW, APOLOGIZE
IF I DON'T GET IT WORD FOR WORD.
>> James: I WON'T REMEMBER IT BUT GOES ONON.
>> I WILL NEVER FORGET IT.
YOU SAID I KNOW THIS ABOUT MARRIAGE, THAT IF I'M LOVING AND
IN A HEALTHY RELATIONSHIP WITH MY CHILDREN'S MOTHER, THEY WILL
SEE WHAT LOVE IS SUPPOSED TO BE.
nd THEY MIGHT EVEN KNOW FOR THEIR FUTURE WHAT KIND OF LOVE
TO EXPECT FOR THEMSELVES, GIVE OTHERS AND POSSIBLY EVEN AVOID
SOMETHING THAT ISN'T HEALTHY OR FUNCTIONAL IN THE FUTURE BECAUSE
THEY WILL HAVE HAD THAT BLUE PRINT.
>> YOU KNOW ARE THIS IS SO PROFOUND TO ME.
BECAUSE I WAS TALKING ABOUT WHAT BARACK OBAMA SAID WHEN HE WAS ON
OUR SHOW.
THEY ARE NOT MY WORDS.
I WISH THEY WERE.
I WISH SO MUCH THEY WERE.
AND I AGREE WITH YOU.
I AGREE WITH YOU.
BUT IT LIKE, YEAH, NO, I'VE GOT SOME WERE FOUND STUFF IN ME, BUT
NO, THIS IS IN ANSWER TO A QUESTION THAT GUILLERMO ASKED.
AND I HAVE TO FES UP BECAUSE IF I DON'T ALL OF THESE PEOPLE WILL
CHIME IN AND GO THAT IS BULL [BLEEP] YOU NEVER SAID THAT,
OBAMA SAID IT OVER THERE.
>> WELL, ALL RIGHT, SO THERE IS AN ORIGIN STORY THERE, BUT IT IS
YOU THAT I HEARD IT SO YOU WILL BE FOREVER ASSOCIATED WITH
HANDING ME SOMETHING-- WE LIVE IN A SOCIETY, I BELIEVE, THAT
PUTS SO MUCH PRESSURE ON PARENTS.
AND WE ARE FANATICS ABOUT TRYING TO GET IT RIGHT.
YOU HAVE TO DO IT THIS WAY AND OH, YOU DIDN'T DO THAT.
OR, IT'S LIKE NOBODY CAN LIVE UP TO THE STANDARDS OF WHICH WE
HAVE PLACED UPON EACH OTHER AND OURSELVES.
AND BY THE WAY, WHEN I GROW UP, HOLY COW, WAS PARENTING
DIFFERENT.
WOULD YOU LEAVE THE KIDS IN THE DRIVEWAY MUCH PEOPLING SMOKED
WHILE THEY WERE PREGNANT.
LIKE IT WAS NUTS.
AND NOW WE'VE GRADUATED INTO THE HELICOPTER TIGER MOMS PHENOMENON
WHERE WE ARE NOT EVER GOING TO MEET THESE STANDARDS.
BUT WHY ARE WE SO HARD ON OURSELVES AND EACH OTHER ABOUT
PARENTING?
AND WHY ARE WE NOT TALKING ABOUT THE RELATIONSHIPS WE HAVE WHICH
FORM THE ONES OUR CHILDREN WILL HAVE LATER SWRZ I'M STILL HUNG
UP ON THE FACT THAT IT IS ME WHO ELEVATE OS BAMA'S WORDS IN THE
BEST WAY.
>> AND YOU DID, SO THANK YOU.
>> James: I ACTUALLY-- SHE IS RIGHT, WITHOUT ME, HE IS
BASICALLY NOTHING NOW.
THAT'S-- THAT'S THE THING.
>> I WOULDN'T HAVE KNOWN HAD YOU NOT BEEN THE CONDUIT.
AND I JUST WISH FOR PEOPLE THAT THEY COULD HEAR THAT AND PUT
THAT IN THE VERNACULAR OF THE IMPORTANCE OF PARENTING, THAT
THE WAY YOU SEE YOUR PARTNER WILL BE SUCH A LESSON AND A BLUE
PRINT FOR YOUR CHILDREN, FOR THEIR RELATIONSHIPS IN THE
FUTURE.
>> YEAH, NOW I WANT TO TALK TO YOU ABOUT THIS, YOU RECENTLY
POSTED.
YOU POSTED THIS SERIES OF POLAROIDS FROM THE EARLY '90S.
LOOK AT ALL OF THESE YOUNG ACTORS STARTING OT IN THEIR
CAREER.
WERE YOU FRIENDS WITH ALL OF THESE GUYS, AND DID YOU EVER
REALIZE.
I NEVER REALIZED LOOK, BEN ESIA DEL TORO, THE SPIT OF HARRY
STYLES, LOOK THIS MORNING, WHO KNEW THAT THAT IS WHAT BILLY BOB
THORNTON LOOKED LIKE.
>> I KNOW, BILLY BOB MIGHT BE THE BIGGEST REVELATION ON THAT
GRID.
WHAT IS FUNNY IS I AM RIGHT NEXT TO ONE OF MY BEST FRIENDS IN THE
WORLD, AND WE WERE FRIENDS AT THAT AGE.
SO I AM GLAD TO SEE US ALWAYS SIDE-BY-SIDE.
I FEEL LIKE I LOOK THE MOST LIKE BEN ESIO DEL TORO IN THAT
PICTURE, WHICH IS WHAT REALLY SURPRISED ME THE MOST.
>> James: WERE YOU FRIENDS WITH ALL OF THESE.
>> I KNEW ALL THOSE SWRZ DID YOU.
>> OH YEAH, I GOT TO TELL YOU, THE '90S IN HOLLYWOOD WAS ONE OF
THE GREATEST TIMES.
IT WAS VERY DIFFERENT THAN THE '80S.
AND INCREDIBLY DIFFERENT THAN THE AUGHTS IT WAS A UNIQUE TIME
CAPSULE WHERE THERE WAS NO PHONES, NO SOCIAL MEDIA, NO
CAMERAS, SO NO ONE WAS WORRIED ABOUT GETTING CAUGHT DOING
ANYTHING.
>> James: THAT IS WHY I THINK IT WAS THE LAST GREAT MOMENT TO
BE FAMOUS.
THE LAST GREAT MOMENT WHERE LIKE BEING FAMOUS WAS LIKE FUN.
AND THEN NOW IT'S JUST LIKE-- UP AT DAWN PRIDE SWALLOWING SEIGE.
>> YOU'RE JUST WONDERING.
AND I REMEMBER WHEN THAT SHOW PUNKED CAME ON.
>> James: YES.
>> I TOLD EVERYONE I WORKED WITH, I SAID IF YOU EVER [BLEEP]
WITH ME ON THAT SHOW I WILL NEVER SPEAK TO YOU IMEN!
BECAUSE I'M TELLING YOU, AFTER LIVING A LIFE IN SERVITUDE TO
BEING GOOD AND KIND TO EVERYONE, I'M SUCH A [BLEEP] REBEL,
THEY'RE DPING TO CATCH ME WITH MY REBELLIOUS ROLE AND THEY'RE
GOING TO BE LIKE I KNEW T YOU WEREN'T NICE.
AND MY WHOLE LIFE IS GOING TO FALL APART SO [BLEEP] ME ON
PUNKED.
EVER!
TRUE!
THANK YOU ASHTON KUTCHER FOR CATCHING EVERYONE IN THEIR WORST
MOMENT AND EXPLOITING IT.
>> James: I LOVE THE IDEA OF YOU MADE THAT SPEECH AND ASHTON
KUMPER LOOKING OUT GOING, YOU'RE ACTUALLY PUNKED RIGHT NOW.
>> HE WOULD HAVE GOTTEN EXACTLY WHAT HE WANTED.
AND I DO GIVE HIM CREDIT FOR DOING A SHOW THAT KIND OF BECAME
AN VERNACULAR IN POP CULTURE.
LIKE GETTING PUNKED.
IT IS NOT EASY TO CREATE A TV SHOW THAT THEN BECOMES A TURNED
IN THE ZEIT GUISE, SO HE HAS MY TOTAL RESPECT, BUT I SWEAR TO
GOD, DON'T DO THAT TO ME.
BECAUSE I AM REBELLIOUS AND IF YOU POKE ME I WILL BITE.
>> James: I GOT TO TELL YOU, I HAVE TO TELL YOU RIGHT NOW THAT
I AM NOW SO EXCITED FOR US TO DO SOME KIND OF PRANK ON YOU.
I FEEL LIKE WE HAVE TO DON'T WE, ROB.
I FEEL LIKE WE HAVE TO.
>> IT WAS AN INVIN KSH-- INVITATION.
>> James: ALL THAT WAS WAS AN OPPORTUNITY FOR US TO RUN THIS
CLUP AND GO, AND THEN THIS HAPPENED.
NOW CONGRATULATIONS ON THE SEASON TWO PREMIER OF THE DREW
BARRYMORE SHOW.
LAUNCHED TODAY HERE IN YOUR HOMETOWN OF LOS ANGELES.
HOW IS IT GOING?
ARE YOU ENJOYING BEING UP THERE AT PARAMOUNT?
THIS LOOKS INCREDIBLE.
>> I LOVE COMING HOME.
I REALLY WANTED THIS YEAR TO BE ABOUT WE COULD NOT LEAVE OUR
STUDIO.
WE COULD NOT EXPLORE THE COUNTRY AND I'M NOT A-- EVEN THOUGH I
LIVE IN SHALL-- I'M NOT I HAVE LIVED ALL OVER THE WORLD AND THE
COUNTRY FROM MY DOG SO FOR ME THIS KIND OF, THERE IS NO PLACE
LIKE HOME FEELING STARTED COMING ON.
AND I JUST THOUGHT HOW CAN WE GO ALL AROUND THE COUNTRY AND ASK
PEOPLE WHY THEY'RE HOME MEANS SO MUCH TO ME, THEIR TOWN.
WHY HAS IT FORMED THEM INTO THE PERSON THAT THEY ARE.
SO HOME WAS THE THEME FOR ME.
AND THEN YOU KNOW, I ENDED UP ON THE PREMIER EPISODE.
I DID THIS TOUR WHERE I GOT IN A BRONCO WHICH WAS MY OLD CAR.
AND KSH-- .
>> James: RECREATED ORGANIZE J-- NO.
>> IT WASN'T A WHITE BRONCO SWRZ SORRY.
>> IT WAS A BLUE BRONCO.
>> James: I THOUGHT WERE YOU GOING SOMEWHERE ELSE.
>> YOU SAY BRONCO AND THAT IS WHERE YOUR MIND GOES.
BUT AND THIS WAS BEFORE.
>> James: YEAH.
>> THIS WAS BEFORE THAT.
BUT I WENT BACK TO THE ODD LITTLE SORT OF BROKEN DOWN DU
PLEX WHERE I GREW UP WITH MY MOM.
I WENT TO MY FIRST APARTMENT THAT I MOVED INTO WHEN I WAS 14.
AND I TOOK US BACK TO THE INSTITUTION I WAS AT FOR TWO
YEARS.
AND I JUST WANTED IT TO BE AN INVITATION TO SAY IF YOU HAVE
GOTTEN TO ANY PLACES IN YOUR LIFE THAT YOU DO FEEL GOOD
ABOUT, WHAT WAS THE JOIRNEE TO GET THERE.
-- JOURNEY TO GET THERE.
AND CAN WE EMBRACE OUR BUMPS IN THE ROAD AND NO JOURNEY IS DE
VOID OF THEM.
AND I'M JUST AN OPTIMIST.
AND THERE IS NOTHING THAT IS A DOWNER OR A BUMMER TO ME ABOUT
THE INTERESTING THINGS WE FIGHT THROUGH AND STRUGGLE THROUGH TO
GET TO OUR BETTER PLACE.
AND SO FOR ME IT IS IS A WAY TO SAY WE DO EVERYTHING ON THIS
SHOW, INCLUDING THIS.
>> WELL, I COULDN'T THINK OF A BETTER PERSON TO SPREAD SUCH A
MESSAGE.
CONGRATS AGAIN ON SEASON TWO.
THE SHOW IS ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT.
SEASON TWO, DREW BARRYMORE, CHECK YOUR LOCAL LISTINGS, DREW
WILL BE HERE WHEN WE COME BACK.
I HOPE ARE YOU TOO.
COME ON BACK.
