3 Ice Cubes

  courtesy of cbs.com 'Mom' is officially coming to an end after eight seasons on CBS. This is a crushing blow for longtime fans of the hit comedy series. The signs were there when Allison Janney and Anna Faris signed contracts taking them through season eight. But, Janney told Ellen DeGeneres the other day, she would love to keep telling stories as long as she could. Apparently, the clock was ticking. The ensemble comedy is currently the fourth highest-rated on CBS so there is really no need for it to end. And Anna Faris being absent for the current season has very little to do with it, in our opinion. If anything, we have gotten to know the other characters much better. The series finale will air May 6th. No word on just how but Kristen Johnston, who plays Tammy Diffendorf, has already tweeted how sad she is . But, she thanked their fans who are truly devastated. We still have two-and-a-half months left so let's hope the best is yet to come!

One of my absolute favorite comedies is going to see a huge shift in its upcoming season; the highly-rated sitcom, 'Mom,' which is now entering its eighth season, is losing one of its main characters. Anna Faris , who plays Christy Plunkett, announced she is leaving the series after being there since day one. In a statement to Us Weekly , the 43-year-old actress had this to say:   “The past seven years on Mom have been some of the most fulfilling and rewarding of my career. I’m so thankful to Chuck [Lorre], the writers and my amazing castmates for creating a truly wonderful work experience. While my journey as Christy has come to an end, allowing me to pursue new opportunities, I’ll be watching next season and rooting for my TV family.” She, along with Oscar-winner, Allison Janney, play mother and daughter and have led this show for seven years, leading it to be picked up for the seventh and eight season...

Chris Pratt and Anna Faris  announced that they are separating late last night and now people are up in arms, claiming that there is no hope for love. Are you kidding me? I feel like there were so many more celeb divorces or separations that left me hopeless like Justin Timberlake and Britney Spears when I was 18! Talk about no hope left for humanity! Once Pratt lost all that weight and started to get serious name recognition, it was all downhill from there.  Cheating rumors made it really hard for the couple to have any normalcy in their marriage and at the end of the day, I think that they just became two different people. Luckily, he's only 38 and she's 40 so they will find someone else very soon (this is her second marriage). It seemed like he and Jennifer Lawrence had some chemistry so only time will tell....
