Faris has been very selective in what roles she plays after she left Mom in the year 2020. The exception to this is 2022's The Estate. Faris revealed exclusively to PEOPLE she wasn't making this decision with intention. Anna Faris had left CBS's beloved sitcom Mom before the end of the eighth season.

Janney, who has been wearing a wig since the beginning of the series, was not worried. Fallon stated, "Everyone knows now that I've worn the hairpiece since I joined the show's first season, but nobody had any idea about it." Janney intends to take the wig to keep as a souvenir. During the initial seasons of her series, Janney made anywhere from $125,000 to $250,000 per episode. Faris has been reported to have earned $200,000 on every episode in season three and four.
