CBS’ “Mom” is losing one of its moms. Anna Faris will exit the sitcom after seven seasons, leaving Allison Janney as the sole star.
Her character, Christy, will not be recast, but rather written out of the series when it returns for its upcoming eighth season. The series is slated to being production on the new season later this month. It is unclear if CBS will bring in a new co-star with Janney.
“The past seven years on ‘Mom’ have been some of the most fulfilling and rewarding of my career,” Faris said. “I’m so thankful to Chuck, the writers, and my amazing castmates for creating a truly wonderful work experience. While my journey as Christy has come to an end, allowing me to pursue new opportunities, I’ll be watching next season and rooting for my TV family.”
