Wizards

Its a great blend of the original format of the show whilst keeping it relevant to current times with enough change to jeep it fresh and interesring.

I had reservations about it before it was released but im pleased to say that its just as fun as the original series with Billie being amazingly similar to alex with the boys being perfectly written as Justin's and Max's characters.

Absolutely love the twists with Billie learning to control her magic as well as the brilliant stories and funny moments.

The familiarity and use of original sets and subtle character mentions make this a must watch for anyone who was a fan of the original series.

Besides Selena Gomez every other character is really awkward. The kid's and David Henrie's acting is a bit melodramatic and overly exaggerated. Selena's acting is very balanced and interesting as always. If it wasn't for her.. it would've sucked hard.

The new girl.. Janice is also good. Her acting is not over the top or melodramatic.

The story line is predicable and I hate to compare this with the original Wizards of waverly place.. but.. I wish that this show is a bit unpredictable like that one. The humor is not even in par with Wizards of waverly place... The humor is a bit cringe and overly childish.

I cried at the end of the first episode...this show is so special to me and for so many people who grew up watching this, and I rewatched it 2x and it is still funny and has a place in my heart like no other show from that era. They did it great back then and I believe it still going to be amazing now. I was so worried that it would be like Raven's Home (that sadly was kinda of boring just focusing on kids and barely Raven's problems) but here the magic and wizard world is still the main focus and that is amazing! No other show by Disney channel had so much importance than Wizards Of Waverly Place, 4 seasons, 1 movie, 1 special after the show ended and now a reboot!

Give it a try you won't regret, your inner child will be proud of you.

So I watched the first 2 episodes and here's what I have to say...

Justin is still funny, Alex is still Alex, Billie is adorable, The plot is okay, the theme is okay, I'm glad that Max is a billionaire, everything is okay. However there are things that are very confusing like how did Justin get fired from a "unicorn incident" and how does he have the powers? If he has two kids, would they have powers too? Also why didn't he just tell his wife that he was a wizard after he was fired? And what why did Justin and Juliet break up? There are so many questions that needs to be answered. But overall it's fun, it's enjoyable.

My kids watched this growing up and were obcessed and now my grandkids are loving it. My adult kids were always hoping that the show would come back and it did.

David and Selena still got it. The new cast fit right in and we love the transition to the story. And wait to see more of the series. We are looking forward to seeing more of the past characters blend in from time to time. David Henrie is hysterical And the kids that were chosen for him were cast perfectly. We don't want to compare it to the first show because it's not this is a continuation and people need to realize that. Just like in real life things change.
