Apple TV+’s Central Park episode eight, Hot Oven, continues to bring the fun and humor — and of course more amazing songs!
As the first season of Apple TV+’s Central Park nears an end, different plot points are starting to come together. I am sure I sound like a broken record when I say that every episode gets better and better, but it really does. I especially love how episode eight starts to tie all the pieces together and set us up for a great season finale!
Warning: Spoilers for Central Park episode eight.
This episode starts off with a song from Molly and it is pure perfection. Not only is Kristen Bell just super fun, this song is so true! It is about her being in love with a boy but not really knowing too much about him. I have been there before girl, I see you, I get you.
Bitsy is still having issues with Champaign, which she has been ever since he got a taste of life with Cole. Helen is tasked with calling the dog therapist and then we get another fantastic song, “This One Sucks Get A New One“. Every time I hear a new song I think, this might be my favorite one yet. And then another amazing song is introduced. This one though — fantastic and hilarious.
The Tillermans end up having Molly’s new boyfriend, Brendon, over for dinner, which is not only fun, it is full of revelations. I don’t want to give anything away, but I did not see this coming. But I have to admit, it is a great twist and makes the story that much more interesting.
Something that had me cracking up time and time again? Owen is determined to make a delicious pizza, something he has been unable to do many times in the past. The things he goes through to make it happen shows how determined he is — and also made me really hungry for pizza.
This episode of Central Park has a great lesson to be learned in it. You can be friends with whoever you want (except murders and magicians). This was one of my favorite episodes for several reasons, and I cannot wait to see where the final two of season one take us!
