(Reuters) - Actor Drew Barrymore on Sunday said she had backed off plans to bring back her daytime talk show while strikes in Hollywood continue, yielding to an outcry of criticism.

The proposed return of "The Drew Barrymore Show" drew picketers from the striking writers' and actors' unions as taping resumed last week.

On Sunday the actor released a statement on Instagram that said: "I have listened to everyone, and I am making the decision to pause the show's premiere until the strike is over."

Barrymore also expressed her "deepest apologies to anyone I have hurt."

Maybe Bill Maher could get a clue.

1. What about The View now ?

Are the star hosts going to have to cross a picket line?

3. They folded and paused their shows.

Now it's Maher and Jennifer Hudson still crossing the line.

5. Hudson has paused, but according to this article The View still is being produced and aired

“The View” never stopped production and has been airing new episodes throughout the summer without its two WGA writers, and has been picketed as a result.

2. Hard to do - change your mind (in public) when you've made an error

Good for Drew.

4. She got raked over the coals on social media.

I have liked her over the years and follow her on Instagram, but I was thoroughly disgusted by her move to resume the show. I was one of thousands voicing my displeasure. I'm glad she reversed course.
