During Thursday’s episode ofThe Drew Barrymore Show, Wilson climbed over the desk in a fit of excitement after guest Danielle Schneider surprised her andDrew Barrymorewith a video call fromPenn Badgley.
But just a moment later, the women received the ultimate surprise when Badgley’s voice suddenly came over the studio.
“Is this where I say something?” the actor asked, as his face appeared in a video call on the screen.
Barrymore and Wilson could not control their excitement at the sight of theYoustar and immediately began screaming, jumping around and throwing newspapers and magazines off the desk.
Their excitement then rose to the next level as Wilson and Barrymore both climbed over the desk and fell onto the floor in dramatic fashion.
“I’m really blushing, this is genuinely crazy,” Badgley said with a laugh while watching the pair freak out over his surprise appearance.
Once the women had calmed down, Barrymore and Wilson didn’t hold back their feelings on the actor.
“We love you, I can’t believe we’re talking to you,” Barrymore said. “We kept talking about why couldn’t we be loved the way you love?”
“Why can’t you put me in a glass box and starve me and leave me from the world?” Wilson joked, making reference to Badgley’sYoucharacter, Joe Goldberg, and his actions on the show.
“Honestly, I’m really honored and humbled,” Badgley responded. “This is a genuine reaction… it’s very touching.”

“I love you inGossip Girl, I love your movies, I love you in this,” Barrymore added. “I have celebrated you for a decade and you can consider me pom-poms out for many more to come.”
