Anna Faris is firing back after her former showrunner threw some serious shade her way in his new memoir ... and she says Chuck Lorre's casting dig was painful to read.

Anna is responding to Chuck revealing he felt vindicated by doubting her casting on "Mom," with the actress saying ... "Yikes. Yes, I read a few things. I really didn't see that coming. Of course it hurts."

Tom Arnold went off with a big bang on Chuck Lorre ... calling him a terrible guy and a total hack who looked like a "sad clown" when he was axed from "Roseanne."

The actor and comedian hopped on social media to bash Chuck ... saying the guy might think he's beloved like fellow sitcom giant Norman Lear, when in fact he's "a terrible human ... who lies every time he opens his mouth."

He says Chuck might trash President Donald Trump -- whom Tom has no love for -- but he's really just like the controversial prez ... adding Chuck is a "bitter hack" who thinks his vanity cards are so dang witty when they're really not.

Anna Faris' friends have her back after Chuck Lorre threw some serious shade her way ... and they're calling him out for saying he was right to doubt her casting in "Mom."

People close to Anna tell TMZ … Chuck's comments were "s****y," considering Anna gave 7 years of her life to his show.
