Wizards Beyond Waverly Place

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.

I enjoyed this much more than I thought I would.

David Henrie is brilliant in this, I love his performance. The kids do a great job.

The show does have a few cheesy lines but looking back the original show did too.

I actually laughed out loud.

Only two episodes so far. I believe it was a good introduction to Billie, they were cast perfectly. I wish we'd have a more teenager cast like the old show. Why is it most Disney shows nowadays are very young kids? Did it use to be like this in the golden Disney days or I'm just getting old?

Anyway, I still think they did the right thing with the casting, the show is good so far and I hope they don't cancel this.

Can't wait to see what comes next.

I love that it's a reboot of a show we all loved, and although it's for kid's, many people watching are adults that are lovers of the original. That being said, besides Justin and Alex, the characters & script are badly written. The entire premise feels lazy. There is no natural progression of the story and it all feels forced. Everyone knows wizards exist and the magic doesn't feel special anymore. The children are written without their own specific personalities and are just far too precocious. None of the lines are funny and the audience struggles to connect with any of the new characters. The original was more mature and well written. Overall just disappointed.

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.

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.
