Hollywood Reporter

"Apple TV’s “Central Park” is a glorious gift for comedy and musical fans and, well, everyone."

—

RogerEbert.com

"Central Park’s greatest asset is clearly its Broadway-grade music, which is to be expected with a cast stacked with vocal giants."

—

A.V. Club

"That sense of civic pride suffuses Central Park, a delightful animated comedy created by Bob’s Burgers team Loren Bouchard and Nora Smith with Josh Gad..."

Time Magazine

"This show feels less like an Animation Domination placeholder and more of a piece with the charming lit-com weirdness of a show like Dickinson."

Entertainment Weekly

"If Parks and Recreation was an optimistic sitcom about local politics softened by the hazy allure of the promise of Obama’s America, Central Park is an optimistic sitcom about local politics hardened by the stark realities of Trump’s America."
