Critics, per Wikipedia
Wizards of Waverly Place has received positive reviews for its actors and their comedic skills. Marah Eakin felt that it was a positive departure from Disney's typical series, with minimal slapstick humor but still having exaggerated acting. Gomez was praised for her comic timing and sarcastic delivery; the Los Angeles Times's Mary McNamara described her portrayal of Alex as "sweet and sassy". Additionally, McNamara believed that Justin and Max did not serve as comic relief; Jake T. Austin was called "absurdly hilarious" by blogger Mark Robinson. The central characters were described as "cute, precocious, but far from angelic" by Garron, who said child viewers would want to watch more. In…

Never watched the show, but at one point when I heard the dad in the main family laugh, I looked it up— never would have guessed he was Coop in Megas XLR! Good on David DeLuise
neutral · AI labelView post →You're right. One of the most popular Disney Channel shows is Hannah Montana, a show they just produced a 20th anniversary special for. Wizards of Waverly Place, too, which recently got a series revival.
neutral · AI labelView post →Alex Russo is currently trapped in a world of darkness as of the ending of season 2 of the Wizards of Waverly Place sequel series. Because I'm me, all I can think about is how this means she has one thing in common with Aqua from Kingdom Hearts.
neutral · AI labelView post →Alex Russo is now dead in the ‘WIZARDS OF WAVERLY PLACE’ universe. She sacrificed herself in the sequel series’ Season 2 finale.

neutral · AI labelView post →so dina and i always have a "sleepytime show" in rotation: a show we watch 1-2 episodes of to wind down for sleep. we basically always pick a kids' tv show (e.g. Hey Arnold, Wizards of Waverly Place, etc) bc they're not stressful. we've been on Boy Meets World and holy SHIT it's so fuckin bad y'all
neutral · AI labelView post →So what I’m hearing the Wizards of Waverly Place spinoff is yet another messy Disney Channel spinoff series. They really have a poor track record at bringing back a beloved family sitcom (Girl Meets World). Almost like they should stick to making new original show for today’s generation of kids
neutral · AI labelView post →Ima be mean for a second and say that I hated the kid show trend of trying to give a pair of characters their own unique handshake, shit pissed me off even as a kid with how cringey it all was (looking at you Kim Possible and Wizards of Waverly Place). Like, did show runners want them to catch on?
neutral · AI labelView post →Not to get all "this children's show is actually surprisingly dark and mature," but it's kinda fucked up how, in Wizards of Waverly Place, all children born to wizards can use magic, but there comes a time when they just compete with their siblings, to keep their magic into their adult lives.

neutral · AI labelView post →Agatha All Along is by far the most Disney Channel sitcom Marvel has produced yet. There is no good reason not to have the Wizards of Waverly Place show up in the finale.

neutral · AI labelView post →It's kinda wild that the show is just called "That's So Raven" Like, "Corey In The House". We get it. He's Corey. He's in the house. "Wizards of Waverly Place" yeah alright wizards "That's So Raven" does not prepare you for anything

neutral · AI labelView post →I've never really stopped watching childhood shows, and I find myself going back to my faves. Im currently rewatching Wizards of Waverly Place after watching the revival show. I also keep up with shows like The Dumping Ground and Waterloo Road (also rewatching this atm) also loving #BBUK this year!

It's also nice for tech news/ productivity information, though sometimes I get a bit frustrated at the show Dear Hank and John (or Dear John and Hank) - John and Hank Green answer listener questions.

neutral · AI labelView post →My daughter grew up watching Wizards of Waverly Place with me. Was not the greatest show, but it was fun watching it with her. We have watched a few other shows like that since then, Just Add Magic being our favorite. We are both excited for this, although she is about to graduate college so I have no idea when we will get to actually watch together. Maybe a binge during winter break.
neutral · AI labelView post →It's so funny being at an age where another full-grown adult will come up to you and be like, "Can you believe they're bringing back Wizards of Waverly Place??" And you have to be like, girl, I was in college when that show came out
neutral · AI labelView post →My daughter and I watched Wizards of Waverly Place, and Just Add Magic together. Both were obviously kids shows, but I enjoyed them, and spending that time with her was great. As she gets older maybe Locke and Key. There is another show along those lines, but I cannot think of the name right now.
positive · AI labelView post →Just to be clear Jake T. Austin (Max from Wizards of Waverly Place) is not on Only Fans. It's Justin's best friend in the show that's on Only Fans #bb28
neutral · AI labelView post →Ok, it's confusing Peter DeLuise was a producer on the show, his brother David was Carters boyfriend for several episodes (and starred in Disney's Wizards of Waverly Place franchise, which is actually pretty good) and their brother Michael played a character in one episode of the show. Phew.
neutral · AI labelView post →Yeah compared to say, Precure, Mahoutsukai Sally and Himetsu no Akko-Chan, both proto-magical girl series, they have more in common with Wizards of Waverly Place or a Disney cartoon than they do Sailor Moon! Hell, Precure's basically Super Sentai for her, and SM was also influenced by Toku shows!
neutral · AI labelView post →I started watching Wizards of Waverly Place last night, it’s been a blast, I’ve remembered every episode, but I’m realizing there was a whole other half of the series I don’t think I watched. To me the show ended with The Movie, there was two more seasons and a movie length TV special after that.
positive · AI labelView post →Really considering doing a @quintonreviews.bsky.social I Carly style video on Wizards of Waverly Place, but the twist is that that show is insanely important to my trans experience and discovering who I am. Probably more than any other media tbh, atleast on my gender.
positive · AI labelView post →I really wish Disney Plus let me block content for my son's profile. He's super into Wizards of Waverly Place which, as far as I can see, is a show about depreciated sitcom stereotypes that grows into a show about siblings who are increasingly mean. For plot reasons.
negative · AI labelView post →Watching Keyan Carlile's video on Wizards of Waverly Place is making realize that aside from Phineas and Ferb this might be the single Disney show I watched the most growing up as a kid
positive · AI labelView post →random post but what was everyone's main shows they watched as a child ? mines were : • Hannah Montana • Gravity Falls • Wizards Of Waverly Place • Dora The Explorer • Sesame Street • Adventure Time • Regular Show • Bratz • Monster High ( there's more but I just added 9 for now )

negative · AI labelView post →And I also hope people would stop saying that this movie is a ripoff to The Owl House meanwhile, they’re forgetting that not only both the show and movie was owned by Disney but, before Disney had those two, they also had Fantasia, Hocus Pocus, Halloweentown, and even Wizards of Waverly Place.

neutral · AI labelView post →I never had any investment in Harry Potter as a kid. The series just never appealed to me back when the movies were coming out. The most I experienced anything wizards-related was watching Wizards of Waverly Place on Disney Channel. That was a good show.
positive · AI labelView post →Then if you want live action wizard stuff for kids* there's Wizards of Waverly Place, The Wizards of Waverly Place movie, I think Disney has a new "teen witch show", and The Sorcerer's Apprentice (with Wizard Nick Cage) *(HP being Wizard stuff for kids assumes by kids you mean Hitler Youth)
neutral · AI labelView post →just found out the actor of the older brother from Wizards of Waverly Place is a conservative who has completely ruined the revival series and made it his own show where he has the most screen time. Also that he dated Erika Kirk. damn. way to ruin my nostalgia

neutral · AI labelView post →bc like, Disney had shows set in various places. Hannah Montana in Malibu, Wizards of Waverly Place in New York, Suite Life in Boston. and they at least tried to build the show around the location. the soundstages had at least some care put into them to appear like they're in the right setting.

neutral · AI labelView post →Since Disney owns Marvel, and Disney owns Wizards of Waverly Place… hear me out… TV show about a teenage version of a brilliant geneticist who would one day befriend but also fight Spider-Man… Lizard of Waverly Place
neutral · AI labelView post →I'd suggest Miss Fisher's Modern mysteries as well, along with Carmen Sandiego (Netflix), the Middleman, The Goes Wrong Show, and Wizards of Waverly Place. Leverage is fantastic, but the shows are pulled from real events a lot and has some difficult subjects. Possibly Poker Face?

neutral · AI labelView post →On this day in 2007, Disney Channel got magical with Selena Gomez in the premiere of "Wizards of Waverly Place." The series later inspired the TV movie, "The Wizards Return: Alex vs. Alex," in 2013. The spinoff "Wizards Beyond Waverly Place" launched on October 29, 2024.
