Here’s all we know about Mom Season 9 and whether or not it’s coming out.
Is there a Mom Season 9 release date?
There is no Mom Season 9 release date, as the show came to an end after the eighth season.
In February 2021, it was reported that Mom would end after eight seasons. The news came after Anna Faris, who portrays Christy Jolene Plunkett, left the series in September 2020 to pursue other opportunities. Series co-creators Chuck Lorre and Gemma Baker and executive producer Nick Bakay said in a statement, “For the past eight years, we’ve had the great honor to bring these wonderful characters to life, sharing their struggles and triumphs with millions of viewers every week.”
The statement continued, “From the beginning, we set out to tell stories about recovery from alcoholism and addiction that are rarely portrayed in a network comedy series. Whether it was the emotional reactions of the live audience on tape night inside Stage 20, or discussions at The White House regarding the opioid crisis, or the personal stories we continue to receive on social media, we take great pride in knowing Mom has positively impacted so many lives. We are forever grateful to our brilliant cast and guest stars, wonderful writers, and amazing crew for going on this journey with us.”
The cast includes Allison Janney as Bonnie Plunkett, Mimi Kennedy as Marjorie Armstrong-Perugian, Jaime Pressly as Jill Kendall, Beth Hall as Wendy Harris, William Fichtner as Adam Janikowski, Kristen Johnston as Tammy Diffendorf, and Anna Faris as Christy Jolene Plunkett, and more.
