With Lorre's track record I'm sure this will be a huge hit. CBS definitely needs more sitcoms with How I Met Your Mother likely ending after next season and Two and a Half Men likely ending in the not too distant future as well.

I like Lorre's stuff but I can't stand Anna Faris. I'll be passing on this one

I'm the opposite - I hate the guy's shows, but Anna Faris is so underrated as a comedian. I'm sure she'll have no problem dumbing herself down with Chuck Lorre's cookie-cutter stuff.

A recovering alcoholic looking after a child...sounds hilarious

The only thing missing is an abusive husband and this could be comedy gold

Same with me. I love her but can't stand his shows, although I don't mind Mike & Molly. Chances are I won't like it but I will give it a chance just for Anna Faris.

SwaggerJagger · 01-07-2013, 09:55 PM

I am a huge Anna Faris, and have been for quite a long time, and I do like Chuck Lorre's Big Bang Theory and I do enjoy his older episodes of Two & Half Men. I'm excited for this show, but sadden by Faris having to be on a television series now. But nonetheless, I've always supported Anna, even in some of her weaker roles.

Blu Ian · 01-07-2013, 10:18 PM

Charlie Sheen to guest star?

SwaggerJagger · 02-09-2013, 05:16 AM

Allison Janney was casted as Anna Faris' mom on the show.

Being on a TV show nowadays is nothing like it used to be. Tons of big names are doing TV nowadays, and plus you would get to watch her for 20+ episodes a season.

I think you and I are almost the only ones here looking forward to this show.

I agree.
It sounds like interesting show! And I'm loving the cast!

From TV by the Numbers:

Several sources are reporting that CHUCK Lorre-produced comedy Mom has indeed been ordered to series by CBS. There's been no official word yet, but we'll update this post when there is.

It would have been a shock if CBS didn't pick up Mom. With How I Met Your Mother ending after next season and Two and a Half Men getting close to being done CBS needs new comedies, and a Chuck Lorre production is about as close as you can get to a guaranteed hit.

It's going to be interesting to see where CBS places this next year. A lot of people think CBS is going to expand to 2 hours of comedy on Thursdays and it wouldn't be surprising if this got the time slot after The Big Bang Theory.

I'll probably check this out

Hope this is great... Anna Faris and Alisson Janney seems like a pretty good combo.

fatediesel · 05-15-2013, 01:37 PM

Mom got the Monday at 9:30 spot following 2 Broke Girls. Mike & Molly has been shelved until midseason.

If this has a laugh track, forget it.

Chuck Lorre doesn't use a laugh track on his shows. They are filmed in front of a studio audience so the laughter is from them.

LEHD · 05-15-2013, 11:24 PM

looks like it could be a fun show and a great companion to 2BG

Same difference, still annoying.
