Anna Faris admits she finds it "terrifying" performing in front of live audiences.
The actress filmed her first season of Mom in front of a crowd and described the experience as exciting yet scary.

She did go on to say the audience found it hilarious if and when she made mistakes.
"They're also very forgiving - they love it when you mess up, they love it.
"You get that same rush when I grew up doing theatre, I get that familiar sort of rush and that buzzed feeling after the show is over and you've accomplished this thing."
Something she hasn't been able to do whilst taking part in the movie side of her career is get to know her co-stars, and she's enjoying that side of things with the series.
"I've never had a long job like this. I get to have friendships ... I have co-workers! I get to know all the crew really well. There's something really great about that.
"And getting to play a character for a long time and getting to figure out who she is and what her adventures are. Not that there's any job security at all! But it is nice to be like, 'I think I'm going to have a job next month.' That feels good."
Mom season one is out now on DVD and Blu-Ray.
