The latest any season of Mom has premiered over the first seven years is November; CBS is already hoping to bring NCIS and other major shows back by November.
Production on Season 8 reportedly begins on September 14.
Could Mom be one of them?
When Anna Faris informed CBS and the Mom team of her decision to depart isn’t clear at the moment, but the show is still on summer hiatus and no premiere date has been set, which could mean that there will be plenty of time to plan how to do justice to Christy’s absence, even if Faris isn’t around.
