I Need To See This Too!!! Jill And Andy Are Great Together,In Her Old Shallow Self,She Wouldn't Have Looked Twice At Andy,She Always Cared About What Other People Thought Of Her,Now That She's Sober And Clear Headed,She's Found Andy And She's Going To Be A Mother,We Need To See This Happen. A Jill Spinoff Would Be A Great Idea,Let's Make That Happen!!!
Right. A rehash of the statement/s made by all concerned after she left. I enjoyed MOM and I believe the show could have continued on without Faris, but we all know how that turned out. Such a loss for the fans. But as long as ANNA'S happy...I'll never watch anything she does again, including her all about her movie she is supposedly producing and starring in as twins.
Money is why. I mean it’s going to us the rest of our lives to even save 1 million dollars if we’re lucky. These celebrities make that in a second. And have homeless and they are crying because they aren’t make a million an episode. 😡
This doesn’t explain why she left. To “explore other avenues” (paraphrase) of her career? An actor does not do that at the height of a mega hit show in the middle of a contract. There is much more to this than is being said. I’m going to miss this show so much!
It's so bizarre that she left the show to explore these other avenues and when I went to go see what she's up to...zip, zero, zilch! I could find nothing! If she said the reason was to be with her son...I'd get that, but not what she said without actually doing something else. Weird!
Oh yes I do oh hell yes I do because every other day they get tired of playing the same characters you really think just because it shows it going to continue to play the same character over and over again they do get tired of it I know acting stuff they do actually get tired of it now sometimes there’s other reasons behind it which is nobody’s business actually they don’t OU an explanation they have a personal life and his personal and people need to respect that but for the most part yes some people do leave a shell because they want to sit there and exploit a career they don’t wanna be typecast guess what I’m tired right now most people stay on the TV show they don’t get any of the work after the TV show ends they really don’t is hard to get work for a lot of them that’s why they don’t wanna stay on the show for a long time no matter how much of a hit it is
There are so many crappy shows on but Mom wasn’t one of them. They are just like real families that have struggles. I wish it was still on my favorite tv series ever!!!
While anna was great on the show, she wasnt the whole show.Bonnie jill wendy,majorie tammy, and especially adam held their own and season 8 was still funny,it could hsve went on
I agree with you. Maybe she left because she got overshadowed by the other ladies, especially with a lot of screen time for Tammy, who's hilarious and more story for Jill. Anyway, still a great show
I guess once she came off the show, I just stop watching!! The show started has her beginning, so I just didn’t want to watch it anymore, she didn’t get a real ending for me!!
They Should Wrap Up The Storyline Between Christy And Violet. In Her Podcast,Violet Slammed Christy For Being A Bad Mom When She Was A Child,She Called Her "The Mother Of All Disasters" I Think And Called Bonnie "The Life Preserver." Anyway,After The End Of The Podcast Where Christy Told Her Side,She Owned Up To Her Mistakes And Aske Violet To Forgive Her And Start Their Mother/Daughter Relationship Over,Violet SHUNNED Her,Telling Her To Stay Out Of Her Life. As They Left,Violet Had LOVE And Hugs For Her Grandma Bonnie,But No Love For Her Mother,That Was Just COLD!!! 🧐🤨😠😡🤬 Even Though She Was A Horrible Mother When She Was Addicted,Drinking And Drugging,At Her Heart Christy Is A Nice Person,She Didn't Deserve That. After All The Work She's Done To Turn Her Life Around,Violet Won't Forgive Her,That Was Cruel For The Writers To Do,They Should Really Make Up Before The Show Ends!!!
Violet Better Think TWICE And Forgive Christy,Because In The Next 15-20 Years,Her Daughter Gwyneth,Who She Gave Up For Adoption And It's An Open Adoption Could Come Back At Her And Not Want To See Her At All Anymore Too,It's Called KARMA,What Goes Around Comes Around,Violet May Need Her Daughter Or Her Mother,LIFE HAPPENS In Unexpected Ways!!!
There is no new information here as to WHY Ferris left the show. All of these statements have been well publicized. Her reasons for moving on must be very personal. In spite of the upheaval the show remains a wealth of talent both on screan and off. Im sorry to see it end, but am confident they will put a worthy finale. Im sure all involved are grateful for it's long run.
I miss Anna but the other woman is the show are so great funny and endearing I forgot all about her I’m sad to hear the show is coming to an end Mom will be very much missed
Ever since I watch the first episode of this show immediately realized how good the chemistry between Cindy and Gemma was. This show has enough excellent episodes to last generations but it's unfortunate good things must come to an end.
Dam.... This is a awesome show specially for addicts and those in recovery. As a former addict it was a ray of sunlight seeing of Americas biggest problem today.... Addiction
@Shakina Dixon amen! I think its really the 1st of its own where everything was based on how hard being an addict is. Everything revolves around staying clean and its a forever everyday struggle and beauty at the same time where every night you say Well I did it today and we will try again tomorrow
As a daughter of an alcoholic (that I haven't talked to in 14 years) whose name is Bonnie... I really enjoyed this show and saw my mother in Bonnie. But made her likeable :) I hate how the series ended. I just found out tonight that there wasn't going to be more. Very disappointed :(
One of my favorite shows. I wish Chuck Lorre/producer would have let it gone on for 10 seasons. It’s my go to comfort and entertainment. The characters Bonnie, Jill, Marjorie, Wendy, Christy, Adam, Tammy, Baxter were perfect four the show…in addition to chef Rudy, Regina and all of the other characters/guest stars. Bonnie Plunkett had the best chemistry with Adam, besides Christy dad Alvin. I thought it was so cool how Adam and Bonnie met. Season 3 Episode 16/ Adam met a lady by the name of Linda. Well the number that Linda gave end of being Bonnie’s number. I loved it when she said “I am happily married with 11 children” Adam in return said “No you’re not” Bonnie said how to do you know?!?! Adam “said no one is happily married with 11 children”. I loved it whenAdam called Bonnie out on BS and she Seoul’s just give right end… I can go on and on about this show… Chuck Lorre produces great shows, Like Mom, Two and Half Men, Young Sheldon, The Big Bang Theory, Mike and Molly and other shows..he is the Norman Lear of this time./with a more sarcasm and narcissism in a funny way..
I don't watch much TV but I regularly tuned into "Mom". As a woman in recovery, I found the characters to be believable. It is very rare to find accurate portrayals of what recovery is like. Kudos to the scriptwriters for doing their research on how 12 Step programs actually work. I'm watching reruns and they still make me laugh and cry.
How would i live my life without mom as i have watched the season 07 and started all over just for to wating for season 08 and suddenly season 08 came with this devastated change, i just want to watch mom forever
No, we really don't know why. Allison Janney said in a recent interview she has opinions about why the show was canceled but was told to keep her mouth shut.
I personally wonder if she needed to take a break to address some personal problems. It's been long speculated she has an eating disorder & a drug/alcohol issue. Something def going on w/ her for a long time and since she left she's been laying really low (not pursuing other career opportunities). If the rumors & physical signs are true, I hope she is in fact addressing some of her problems & taking some personal time.
It was one of the rare times where the lead leaving didn’t hurt the show. Really, they slowly wrote her character out the few seasons leading up to it.
Faris was well paid and made a generous salary. SO the reason(s) she rode into the sunset was either she wanted lots more MONEY, or she wanted her own TIME back, or she's SICK. Take your pick! I vote for MONEY.....
I think these videos are burying the lead. The interesting issue was that she waited until the week BEFORE 8th season production began so CBS could not entertain offering up a new show in its place.
Anna leaving definitely caused the cancellation. Alot of people are losing work because of it: right after covid too. I wonder if she thought about that?
Anna Faris was the center of the show. She balanced out her "mom's" overbearing personality, provided most of the humor and we felt compassion for the character when she failed and cheered when she triumphed. There was no balance once she left. Wish her well. She sure has paid her dues. BTW, was the law school we saw her attending located at a community college?
@@yabbadabba1975 Well I wasn't missing her. In fact, she was not a top character for me. As I'm sure she wasn't for others. We all had our favorites. But not sure I'm believing ratings dropped. I guess numbers depends on where you're looking. But whatever. Show did not need her to continue.
I have an amazing story. One day I was driving home, when all of a sudden the Lord came to me in spirit. I felt very close to Him. I knew if I asked him to play any song on the radio he would, I guess to bless my faith. So I said "ok, Lord play "Come as you are by Nirvana". I turned on the radio and the song started playing right there on the spot, perfectly… I started getting flooded with chills like a waterfall, crying, and trembling. He stayed with me for 10 minutes in my driveway. until I got outta the car. A couple months after that I started getting amazing prayers answered way more often, because it helped me quit doubting when I pray and I was lined up with biblical instructions. It's 6 years later and I still get answered prayers in Jesus name.
Not only did Anna leave but so did Cristie's kids and Baxter and Candace somewhere in season 4. I feel like those characters were important on the show with more stories they could have wrote but instead we just started seeing them less then not at all then they introduced new characters
Anna has professed out of her own mouth of why her marriage with Christ Pratt didnt work out was because she is a very proud person and unwilling to be vulnerable...insider sources have said that anna was feeling eclipsed by Allison Janney's popularity on the show "Mom" and thought that if she would quit it not only would be a punch in the face for them, but also would possibly show everyone that the show was just not as good without her therefore gaining her sympathy...
My Mom and I are nearly finished rewatching all of mom and just about to start season 8. It’s been a remarkable time going through the series again. That being said I’m still very angry at Ana Farris for leaving the show a season before the series finale. I’m sorry but you don’t just give 7 years of you’re life to a sitcom and then just walk away, it left an abrupt hole that Farris created. Not to mention she’s one of the main characters of the show. Having her leave the show after being on for so long was a very very very huge mistake on her part.
MOM could have went on. They had the talent to pull it off. I hate to say this but I have a real dislike for Anna Farris. She made an incredibly selfish move.
If she signed on for two more years, but left the show before completing the two additional seasons, couldn’t the production company have sued her for breach of contract?
Well here's my two cents about this.. If you observe the show closely and the way she speaks at her podcast, there seems to be something amiss.. or like deep seated self confidence issues (or mom issues for real?). She keeps bringing her own stories while she is interviewing someone else, as if screaming for desperate attention that isn't quite desperate. If you also closely observe her character's relationship with others on the show, there can be seen immense struggle as well. She cannot seem to empathise with anyone and is always pissing someone off, never learning the error of her ways. My two cents is that she maybe either aware of it or probably thinks that everyone picks on her and hates her cuz of that (maybe even in reality). And that she may actually be in trouble for real for mental health issues. Maybe Christy's character hit too close to home for her or that what can be seen as happening in the show might be her actual reality... :/
I was actually so tired of Christie complaining. I thought it was time for her to leave.i really wanted to see the rest of the cast have their parts expanded,especially Wendy.
I loved "Mom" and never missed it. I've never known a show that could take us from laughter to tears and back again so skillfully. But Christie was always my least favourite character, so I didn't miss her at all. The season after she left was their *best yet,* with ALL the other women AND Adam having great stories. For the network to cancel a great show at its peak just shows they don't have the first clue what they're doing. I can't WAIT to see the garbage they'll show us instead. The crap the networks keep showing is the reason my TV stays OFF most of the week.
They Could At Least Have A Proper Finale And Have Anna Back For That,And Have Violet Forgive Christy,She Not Wanting Her Mama In Her Life Is COLD,Especially Since Christy's Come So FAR In Her Recovery And Christy Is A NICE Person,Truly Good At Heart!!!
I loved Christy so much! 😭😭I was devastated when she wasn’t in season 8! I didn’t know the actor Who played her quit I’m so sad! And Adam ended up having lung cancer!😭I wanted to know if he was gonna survive or not!
Like wise the character need AA meeting to overcome their Alchohol and drug addition, I think I soon would be needing a AA to stop watching MOM ....it is so addictive n love the Combo of the duo Allison n Ana they are perfect.... Ana we need u back.... Though the season eight was amazing but Christy was missesd. Others are beautiful too in their character Jill, Wendy, Marjorie n Adam. ❤ Love From India 🇮🇳
I was so devastated when this show got canceled. We got gipped another season because of Anna Faris early departure. She could have held on and collected another couple of million dollars. She totally let down her colleagues and fans. The claim of ‘pursing in other things’ is crap. Or writing or whatever lie her PR people came up with is garbage too. Allison Janney went back to Broadway for Six Degrees of Separation and did ITonya (which she won an Oscar for). Plus she starred in several other movies and shows and still did the damn show. It’s called multitasking and professional integrity. I think one of the real reasons was recognition. Allison was nominated for 5 and won 2 Emmys for her work and was professionally outshining Anna. I watched an interview they did for SAG once and she said something in reference to Allison’s veteran career vs her relatively novice career in comparison. It sounded very jealous 😠 and bitter. Of course it was laughed off by both of actors but sometimes the real truth slips out when we aren’t expecting it to. There was also an interview done with Larry King (RIP) where he asks do they let you change anything if you don’t like it. Anna answered no first and Allison shook her head replying yes. Larry King made the joke of bow to your elders. And they continued. Also because of Allison’s connections and relationships they landed some of the big names on the show including a good friend of hers Octavia Spencer. The next is money 💵 . First CBS was wrong. They underpaid the cast of Mom for years and when the Big Bang left Mom was their second highest rating comedy behind Young Sheldon. So their agents negotiated a higher salary to almost double if not higher than what they were previously making per episode. Which was 125k. And they signed them to two more years. The show was in syndication with reruns on TBS, Nick at Nite, and Country TV. Her departure was personal. (Very much in my opinion) And to wrap up. I liked Anna Faris as Christy. At first I didn’t think it would work but chemistry that these two women had on screen was really something and the whole cast was great together. After she left there was something missing but Allison, Mimi, Jamie, Kristen, Beth, and Will did a great job entertaining us and continuing to tell the stories of these wonderful characters. I would have loved if they gave them another season to tell their stories. I feel like mid season they really hit their stride. Although I still have my reruns, Mom will be missed. 💕 There I answered the question this video didn’t. 😁
I think she left cuz Allison outshines her. She was jealous that Allison won emmys. Sorry but Ana is not that good of an actress. Even Jamie outshined her. Some of her parts she played made me cringe cuz she couldn't pull it off. I loved the show but because of Allison and Jamie and the older woman too. Even guests that came on were better than her. Instead of taking off she could have learned from them. Jealousy is an ugly thing. I don't know what she's gonna do now because that was probably the biggest success she had. I say they start it up again and find another Christy lol. I could adjust as long as they can act better than her and keep up with Allison!!
I'm very sorry to see this show end. I hope they will reconsider this and have a few more seasons. It is one of my favorite shows. I'm disabled, watch tv all day, and tend go watch the same shows over and over. I'm always looking for the reruns of Mom. Hope if there is a way, it will come back.
I didn't know why Anna Faris left mom
After watching this video I still don't know why Anna Faris left mom
Right!
They click baited us
The truest statement
Ain't That The Truth!!!
Anna saif in another interview she wanted to persue writing
"Mom" keeps getting funnier and funnier. I hate that it's cancelled.
Chuck Lorrie And CBS Are CRAZY For Letting Mom Be CANCELLED!!! This Show Is A GEM,The Subject,Story And Cast Are All Superb!!!
I couldn't believe it. It's very rare when a show can remain consistently funny after so many seasons. And it just ended.
Dammit.
The show Doesnt develop. Its the same crap every episode
it didn't get cancelled, IT ENDED. Like every show. They decided that this series has come to an End, that is something completely different...
They definitely could keep the show going for sure!!!
Everyone needs to sign the petition to save the show we need at least 2 more years. We need Jill and Andy together with a baby.

I'm definitely going to miss the show and miss Anna on it. Sober 5 years this coming February 💙

She really needs to come back and bring the show back. It was one of the good ones, but it needs ferris back
Not only did Anna leave but so did Cristie's kids and Baxter and Candace somewhere in season 4. I feel like those characters were important on the show with more stories they could have wrote but instead we just started seeing them less then not at all then they introduced new characters
Really is sad I am going to miss the show not only Anna but all the rest of them sad!!
Anna has professed out of her own mouth of why her marriage with Christ Pratt didnt work out was because she is a very proud person and unwilling to be vulnerable...insider sources have said that anna was feeling eclipsed by Allison Janney's popularity on the show "Mom" and thought that if she would quit it not only would be a punch in the face for them, but also would possibly show everyone that the show was just not as good without her therefore gaining her sympathy...
How i wish there were more seasons of this series. It was so funny.
My Mom and I are nearly finished rewatching all of mom and just about to start season 8. It’s been a remarkable time going through the series again. That being said I’m still very angry at Ana Farris for leaving the show a season before the series finale. I’m sorry but you don’t just give 7 years of you’re life to a sitcom and then just walk away, it left an abrupt hole that Farris created. Not to mention she’s one of the main characters of the show. Having her leave the show after being on for so long was a very very very huge mistake on her part.
How do you know?
Do you know exactly what was going on in her life?
Someone forgot to tell them that she was the biggest part of that show. Awm
It was just weird how they made her kids disappear.
....and Candace & Baxter too.🤦♀️ ✌️
I wished they had a follow up on Rosco and Violit on the last season.
MOM could have went on. They had the talent to pull it off. I hate to say this but I have a real dislike for Anna Farris. She made an incredibly selfish move.
Thursday night won't be the same without MOM, it's a female version of 2& 1/2 Men, & just as irreverent, at least we have reruns
I still watch mom because I love the mom. But I do miss Anna Faris is not the same.
And now MOM has been canceled...I'm so upset!😭
it didn't get cancelled, IT ENDED. Like every show. They decided that this series has come to an End, that is something completely different...
@@visualhatefvck
Either way...I'm still sad.
@BlackSheep85
But I WANT MORE!♡
@@melissamason2983 I wouldn’t want it to become another Simpsons or Spongebob
Mom was a great asset to AA,
it got many people back we had lost during the shutdown.
I just finished this show. I really really hated how the show ended.
I just started watching this show during pandemic. It was says to see Farsi leave. But the ensemble is so strong that I continue to love this show.
If she signed on for two more years, but left the show before completing the two additional seasons, couldn’t the production company have sued her for breach of contract?
Well here's my two cents about this..
If you observe the show closely and the way she speaks at her podcast, there seems to be something amiss.. or like deep seated self confidence issues (or mom issues for real?). She keeps bringing her own stories while she is interviewing someone else, as if screaming for desperate attention that isn't quite desperate. If you also closely observe her character's relationship with others on the show, there can be seen immense struggle as well. She cannot seem to empathise with anyone and is always pissing someone off, never learning the error of her ways. My two cents is that she maybe either aware of it or probably thinks that everyone picks on her and hates her cuz of that (maybe even in reality). And that she may actually be in trouble for real for mental health issues. Maybe Christy's character hit too close to home for her or that what can be seen as happening in the show might be her actual reality... :/
I wish she was still on the show
I was actually so tired of Christie complaining. I thought it was time for her to leave.i really wanted to see the rest of the cast have their parts expanded,especially Wendy.
Ana in real life is in recovery, I hope she didn’t lose her sobriety
I loved "Mom" and never missed it. I've never known a show that could take us from laughter to tears and back again so skillfully.
But Christie was always my least favourite character, so I didn't miss her at all. The season after she left was their *best yet,* with ALL the other women AND Adam having great stories. For the network to cancel a great show at its peak just shows they don't have the first clue what they're doing. I can't WAIT to see the garbage they'll show us instead.
The crap the networks keep showing is the reason my TV stays OFF most of the week.
She really could be very annoying although I loved the show; they made her too neurotic and whiny…..
So.....why did she leave the show?
To start writing she said in a different intetview
I like her character on the show, however it's still enjoyable without her. All good things come to an end.
They Could At Least Have A Proper Finale And Have Anna Back For That,And Have Violet Forgive Christy,She Not Wanting Her Mama In Her Life Is COLD,Especially Since Christy's Come So FAR In Her Recovery And Christy Is A NICE Person,Truly Good At Heart!!!
I loved Christy so much! 😭😭I was devastated when she wasn’t in season 8! I didn’t know the actor Who played her quit I’m so sad! And Adam ended up having lung cancer!😭I wanted to know if he was gonna survive or not!
Like wise the character need AA meeting to overcome their Alchohol and drug addition, I think I soon would be needing a AA to stop watching MOM ....it is so addictive n love the Combo of the duo Allison n Ana they are perfect.... Ana we need u back.... Though the season eight was amazing but Christy was missesd. Others are beautiful too in their character Jill, Wendy, Marjorie n Adam. ❤ Love From India 🇮🇳
I was so sad. I wish anna did not leave the show....
Let's all remember Christy's last word ( l kissed a girl )
I miss the show! I miss my little "Crusty". She is so sweet and beautiful and funny!
I’m saddened cause I loved MOM.
I’m not a big modern sitcom guy, but this was a solid show. Anna and Janny were great.

You told us nothing we didn’t already know, good job.
My favorite show. So sad.
I've truly enjoyed the show, some of the best times just watching 💯
I was so devastated when this show got canceled. We got gipped another season because of Anna Faris early departure. She could have held on and collected another couple of million dollars. She totally let down her colleagues and fans.
The claim of ‘pursing in other things’ is crap. Or writing or whatever lie her PR people came up with is garbage too. Allison Janney went back to Broadway for Six Degrees of Separation and did ITonya (which she won an Oscar for). Plus she starred in several other movies and shows and still did the damn show. It’s called multitasking and professional integrity.
I think one of the real reasons was recognition. Allison was nominated for 5 and won 2 Emmys for her work and was professionally outshining Anna. I watched an interview they did for SAG once and she said something in reference to Allison’s veteran career vs her relatively novice career in comparison. It sounded very jealous 😠 and bitter. Of course it was laughed off by both of actors but sometimes the real truth slips out when we aren’t expecting it to. There was also an interview done with Larry King (RIP) where he asks do they let you change anything if you don’t like it. Anna answered no first and Allison shook her head replying yes. Larry King made the joke of bow to your elders. And they continued. Also because of Allison’s connections and relationships they landed some of the big names on the show including a good friend of hers Octavia Spencer.
The next is money 💵 . First CBS was wrong. They underpaid the cast of Mom for years and when the Big Bang left Mom was their second highest rating comedy behind Young Sheldon. So their agents negotiated a higher salary to almost double if not higher than what they were previously making per episode. Which was 125k. And they signed them to two more years. The show was in syndication with reruns on TBS, Nick at Nite, and Country TV. Her departure was personal. (Very much in my opinion)
And to wrap up. I liked Anna Faris as Christy. At first I didn’t think it would work but chemistry that these two women had on screen was really something and the whole cast was great together. After she left there was something missing but Allison, Mimi, Jamie, Kristen, Beth, and Will did a great job entertaining us and continuing to tell the stories of these wonderful characters. I would have loved if they gave them another season to tell their stories. I feel like mid season they really hit their stride.
Although I still have my reruns, Mom will be missed. 💕
There I answered the question this video didn’t. 😁
I think she left cuz Allison outshines her. She was jealous that Allison won emmys. Sorry but Ana is not that good of an actress. Even Jamie outshined her. Some of her parts she played made me cringe cuz she couldn't pull it off. I loved the show but because of Allison and Jamie and the older woman too. Even guests that came on were better than her. Instead of taking off she could have learned from them. Jealousy is an ugly thing. I don't know what she's gonna do now because that was probably the biggest success she had. I say they start it up again and find another Christy lol. I could adjust as long as they can act better than her and keep up with Allison!!
I absolutely love mom. The addition and development of the other cast members
MOM was one of the best damn shows on TV. It could have gone on for years without Anna. It is so stupid to end a hot show.
What shit is this...don't waste your time on it. They don't say why she left. Just a narrator who loves to hear her own voice...
I hate when the title says one thing and then I spend 5 or 6 minutes watching only to find out they never tell us the answers.
I'm very sorry to see this show end. I hope they will reconsider this and have a few more seasons. It is one of my favorite shows. I'm disabled, watch tv all day, and tend go watch the same shows over and over. I'm always looking for the reruns of Mom. Hope if there is a way, it will come back.
It IS a GREAT show - i still scan tv channels for ANY episode running!! loved Anna in Overboard!
Still DON'T KNOW WHY Anna Farris LEFT!!!!
She did the best thing, she saved her money and got the hell out of showbiz before she got too old. ❤️👍👍👍
We still don't know WHY Faris left.
