Anna Faris Reveals 'Mom' Exit Reason

Anna Faris has shed light on her reasons for departing the popular sitcom "Mom" after seven seasons. Faris, who starred alongside Allison Janney in the Napa, California-set series, explained that the demanding schedule of a multi-camera sitcom was a significant factor in her decision. This was Faris' first lead role in a television series, and she admitted that after leaving, she contemplated quitting acting entirely.

While the show continued for another season, Faris' exit was a surprise to many viewers and reportedly caused a stir among the cast and crew. Allison Janney, who won two Emmys for her role on "Mom," acknowledged how much Faris and her character were missed. Janney expressed understanding and support for Faris' choice to pursue different career paths, prioritizing her well-being and personal decisions. Fans can still stream "Mom" on Netflix.
