Wizards of Waverly Place - First Kiss

Wayback Wednesday takes us back to a family of wizards living in Waverly Place. Lucy Hale guest-stars in “First Kiss” as Justin‘s (David Henrie) new girlfriend Miranda who he’s too shy to kiss. As with the first episode of the series, as spell used unwisely will play into the proceedings when Alex (Selena Gomez) keeps turning back time to give her brother the opportunity to get the kiss right. Sitcom shenanigans are everywhere in the various ways the kiss goes wrong and in the episode’s B-plot which involves Max‘s (Jake T. Austin) crazy sandwich creation catching on with a rep for the NY Mets only to have the rebooted time ruin any chance of it becoming the official sandwich for the baseball team.

Wizards of Waverly Place - Crazy 10 Minute Sale

Wayback Wednesday takes us back to a family of wizards living in Waverly Place. Premiering in Fall of 2007, the first episode of Wizards of Waverly Place introduced us to teenage wizard Alex Russo (Selena Gomez) and her brothers Justin (David Henrie) and Max (Jake T. Austin) who are trained by their father (David DeLuise) to use magic while also attempting to be normal and fit in at school. Not taking any time for introductions or setting up the world, “Crazy 10 Minute Sale” jumps in with an average day for the Russos where Alex, in order to attend the biggest sale of the year, uses a duplication spell learned in this episode to create a doppelganger to attend magic training in her place. Of course, things go wrong.

Haas) into her sleeping mind and helping the younger version of Marcille he finds their overcome her fears and break the hold of the Nightmare.
