Asked by Andy if she's ever considered giving dating apps Raya or Tinder a go, Drew said she had actually been watching her friends using those services.

Drew added she's been watching her friends use the dating app Raya, but confessed to having some reservations about online dating in general.

'My concern with the dating app is always like, am I going to be that person who classically meets a psycho, and then I end up murdered that night!?' she said.

Not her thing: Drew also admitted she has not interest in trying out online dating

Good terms: Barrymore has remained friendly with her ex Will since their divorce was finalized last year

'So I think that alone was a turn off!' 

The actress remembered dating in the days before smart phones. 

'I remember when you were just waiting for that phone to ring, and then you were worried because you'd miss their call and then the answering machine manifested and it was tapes, and you were so, kept checking that tape. Like, there's a part of me that still dates from that kind of perspective.

'I can't stand when people want to talk on the phone all the time, or text, or email,' she added. 

The actress appeared on the show to promote her new Netflix series, Santa Clarita Diet, and while publicizing the program on the Today show, said she had let herself go before filming the new show due to 'personal circumstances.'  

Drew dished about losing 20lbs for her role on Santa Clarita Diet as Sheila, a real estate agent who becomes a zombie that feeds on human flesh.

Aww: Drew took to Instagram last Sunday to share a photo of her former husband holding their daughter Frankie on his shoulders while they participated in the Women's March

'It came sort of the middle of a moment in my life where I had sort of let myself go due to personal circumstances, and I thought I could come alive with Sheila,' she told Today anchor Natalie Morales. 

Drew and her ex-husband Will have remained friendly since their divorce was finalized last year.

Last Sunday, Drew took to Instagram to share a photo of her former husband holding their daughter Frankie on his shoulders while they participated in the Women's March.

Drew, who wrote that she was 'proud' of both of them, also posted a snapshot of her form in-laws at the protest.

'This is my family. Grammy @cocokopelman and Aunty @jillkargman cousins Fletch and @ivykargman,' she wrote. 'But most of all, the fact that Ivy made a sign with something I said, well, I might be the most proud I have ever been.'
