Apple is not moving forward with another season of “Central Park,” Variety has confirmed.
Previously, series star Josh Gad, who also serves as EP and writer, shared the news over the weekend on social media, telling fans “Sadly, it’s done” when asked about the show’s return.
The animated comedy follows “Owen Tillerman and his family live an unconventional life in New York’s bustling Central Park, which Owen manages; now, they’ll have to fend off a wealthy hotel heiress who wants to turn the park into condos,” per the series description.
Season 3, which was released on Sept. 9, picked up with Kristen Bell in a new role on the show. Bitsy continued her pursuit to buy the park as Owen took on a new promotional campaign to make more people fall in love with it. Meanwhile, Paige wound up busier than ever after landing her first book deal.

You’ll be able to stream “The Bob’s Burgers Movie” on two different streaming services next month.
The film has landed a streaming release date of July 12 on HBO Max and Hulu, hitting both services on the same day 45 days after the movie was first released in theaters.
This is in line with the streaming release strategy for films that first get an exclusive theatrical release under the Disney banner, as “The Bob’s Burgers Movie” was produced and distributed by Disney-owned 20th Century Studios. Hulu is owned by Disney, of course, but the HBO Max streaming debut is due to an existing deal between WarnerMedia and 20th Century Fox that will continue through 2022.
As of now, “The Bob’s Burgers Movie” is not set to stream on Disney+.

While many productions were forced to shut down when the Covid-19 pandemic hit, the team behind Fox’s Emmy award winner animation series, Bob’s Burgers — like many animation houses — were fortunate to be able to make a smooth transition to remote work. “Bob’s Burgers is in production. We never stopped being in production, said creator and executive producer,” said Loren Bouchard, who was on hand for Comic-Con@Home, joined by voice cast members H. Jon Benjamin, John Roberts, Kristen Schaal, Eugene Mirman, Dan Mintz, and Larry Murph, as well as producers Nora Smith and Janelle Momary.
Season 11 is set to debut on September 27 and those who tuned into the pre-recorded session got a peek at some upcoming episodes including an eerily timely one that deals with a pandemic, which Smith said she wrote before the coronavirus hit.
The episode, aptly titled Worms of In-Rear-ment, “is about a pinworm epidemic,” Smith shared.
