Ellen Degeneres just brought MOM stars Allison Janney and Anna Faris out to her AMERICAN NINJA WARRIOR course -- watch the ladies conquer the obstacles, with commentary from ANW co-hosts Matt Iseman and Akbar Gbaja-Biamila, below!
Anna Faris and Emmy Award winner Allison Janney star in the pulls-no-punches comedy MOM from Executive Producer Chuck Lorre (THE BIG BANG THEORY, TWO AND A HALF MEN, MIKE & MOLLY). Christy is a single mom and Napa Valley waitress valiantly trying to overcome a lifetime of questionable choices. Now a year clean and sober, she's tested daily by her newly sober mom, Bonnie. Complicating things further is Christy's stubborn teenage daughter, Violet, who just gave up her baby for adoption; her overly-honest son, Roscoe; her slacker ex-husband, Baxter; Violet's clueless boyfriend, Luke; Christy's Married boss and former fling, Gabriel; the restaurant's lascivious chef, Rudy; her sober friend, Marjorie; and her long-estranged father, Alvin. Christy tries to remain positive as she pursues a better life, but with her dysfunctional family and dubious support system, it's always an uphill battle.
Stage veteran Janney, well known for her performance as C.J. Cregg on Aaron Sorkin's long-running political drama THE WEST WING, was the recipient of the 2014 Emmy 'Outstanding Supporting Actress In A Comedy Series' award.
