As the series is on another two-week break, no 'Mom' today, guys! It will return on February 11, CBS at 9 pm.

The network hasn't issued a statement as yet on why the break is taking place. Nevertheless, there's much to look forward to, as the upcoming episode promises a lot of drama. 

Adam (William Fichtner) and Bonnie (Allison Janney) have been a lot of fun to watch on the CBS show 'Mom'. The showrunners have promised to shine a lot on the trials and tribulations of their blossoming relationship in Season 8.

Bonnie has accepted that she cares more for Adam than she shows, as revealed in Episode 5 when he went skiing and she was terrified something might happen to him. Her ex visited her dreams and the two had a soulful discussion on her relationship with Adam and that she does want to be with him in the long term.

The next episode is an Adam-Bonnie one as the synopsis reads. It said: "Bonnie is upset when Adam makes a big-ticket purchase without consulting her; Jill has an unexpected reaction when her dentist retires."

Episode 5 was a turning point for Bonnie, as it saw the return of her ex Alvin (Kevin Pollak).  Bonnie was worried about Adam's safety when he goes skiing, as she remembered his earlier accident. Her sleep is fraught with uncomfortable dreams. So, Alvin visits her from the great beyond.

For all those who need a quick reminder, Alvin re-entered her life in Season 1, just after Christy (Anna Faris) confronted her father. Alvin and Bonnie patched up soon, but their happiness was short-lived, as he suffered a massive heart attack and died in a heartbreaking Season 2 episode. 
 
Meanwhile, what is up with Jill (Jaime Pressly) and Andy (Will Sasso)? They have been going through a rough patch, this season. In the previous episode, Jill took some drastic episodes to get Andy back, including a dangerous game of football. 

Several episodes ago, we saw Jill and Andy decide to break off their relationship, as they were not able to overcome the differences. Jill had been heartbroken about the split and was determined to get him back at any cost.
