Mom, thankfully, is a strong reminder of just how elastic this 64-year-old format is. Oct 17, 2017 | Full Review… Alan Sepinwall Uproxx Of course, as fans of CBS' increasingly nuanced comedy have come to expect, there's a gut punch before the punchline. Nov 10, 2015 | Full Review… Michael Slezak TV Line It remains a throwback to '70s and '80s comedies like "All in the Family," "Taxi," and even "Cheers," which took their characters seriously enough to be comfortable with purely dramatic scenes, which in turn only makes the laughter feel more potent. Nov 5, 2015 | Rating: B+ | Full Review… Alan Sepinwall HitFix With a few ballsy plot lines under its belt and an assured step in the right direction in the season three premiere, Mom may come off as occasionally familiar in its formatting, but content wise it feels downright groundbreaking. Nov 2, 2015 | Rating: 8/10 | Full Review… Mitchel Broussard We Got This Covered Moments like this prove why the show is so touted for its humor and truthfulness, and why Allison Janney in particular can do no wrong. Oct 17, 2017 | Full Review… Keertana Sastry Entertainment Weekly Top Critic Still, even with the admirable mix of laughs and lumps in the throat that this latest installment elicited, it's not difficult to understand why the show hasn't become as addictive as CBS would surely like it to be. Oct 17, 2017 | Full Review… Brian Lowry Variety Top Critic Mom articulates the struggles of people in recovery-and always without forgetting that comedies should have jokes. But Diabetic Lesbians And A Blushing Bride is remarkable for how unsparing it is. Oct 17, 2017 | Rating: A- | Full Review… Noel Murray AV Club Top Critic The season 3 premiere not only reminds us that there is hope, but that there is possibility - and also very likely a great season ahead. Oct 17, 2017 | Full Review… Ariana Bacle Entertainment Weekly Top Critic And remaining a savvy complement, [Anna] Faris continues to give one of the most underrated performances on TV. Oct 17, 2017 | Full Review… Dan Fienberg Hollywood Reporter Top Critic The beauty of Mom is that it refuses to stay in one place, even if that place is consistently delivering laughs. Feb 22, 2016 | Full Review… Mary McNamara Los Angeles Times Top Critic View All Critic Reviews (10) Audience Reviews for Mom: Season 3 ½ The plot is rolling along nicely while the dynamic between Janney and Faris remained strong.
