The Best in the Series
8 March 2009 | by (Canada) – See all my reviews

Who says a person in their mid-teens can't enjoy a few episodes of a few shows from Disney Channel once in a while? There were a few shows that were funny and original ("That's So Raven" for instance), but there was also a majority of them that were seemingly ripped-off and not very funny ("Cory in the House" for instance). "Wizards of Waverly Place" was sort of in between. This episode, however, is the most hilarious I've seen on this show. There was something about that uncle that made me want to laugh. Once I was even on the floor laughing my head off until I was out of breath. If you're looking for an episode that would make you laugh until it hurts to even talk, watch for it.
