In 1999, MTV's Chris Connelly interviewed Drew Barrymore and made an insightful observation about her career. He noted that many of the characters she has portrayed derive their strength from not having parents. Interestingly, Drew can also relate to this theme on a personal level. In this episode, we explore Drew's connection to being an orphan, as well as the list of her characters who fit this description. From Casey Brodsky in Irreconcilable Differences to Dylan in Charlie's Angels, Drew has played a diverse array of characters defined by their lack of parental figures.
