OVERVIEW: Anna Faris and Allison Janney star in Mom, an irreverent and outrageous sitcom that explores the no-holds-barred dynamics of family bonds and dysfunction.  Now, fans can relive all the laughs of this hilarious show when Warner Bros. Home Entertainment releases Mom: The Complete First Season on DVD September 23, 2014.  An instant hit with viewers and critics alike, the inaugural season of Mom averaged 8.5 million weekly viewers*.

SYNOPSIS: Anna Faris and Emmy® winner Allison Janney star in a new comedy from Chuck Lorre. Anna Faris plays Christy, a single mom whose newly found sobriety has given her the ability to see her life clearly... and she does not like the view. Now she must try to untangle years of reckless decisions in order to make a better life for her and her kids. But she discovers that just because you want to be a better person doesn't mean it's going to be easy. Everywhere she looks there are challenges: She is trying to stop drinking in wine country, have a healthy romance with her unavailable boss, raise her young son to be a good man despite his father's influence, convince her troubled teenage daughter to make better choices than she did, and, perhaps the most difficult task – forgive her estranged mother, Bonnie, played by Allison Janney, for not giving her any of the tools she needed to handle life in the first place.

DVD: The film is presented in widescreen in a 1.78:1 aspect ration preserving its theatrical format. The picture is just flawless. Not only the picture looks great in this release, also the sound it is good, a  Dolby Digital in English that provides a good complement to the picture. It also includes  English  subtitles.
