Plot


Alex Russo (Selena Gomez) and her brothers Justin (David Henrie) and Max (Jake T. Austin) are a lot like the teens in their Manhattan neighborhood but they have one significant difference…they come from a long line of wizards and they must learn to hone their budding magical powers or soon risk losing them. The three are always competing with each other as only the strongest one gets to keep their powers. Their dad Jerry (David DeLuise) was born with the same powers but was forced to relinquish them when his brother, Kelbo, surpassed him magically. He soon married their mom, a mortal named Theresa (Maria Canals). Now, while their parents run the family business, Waverly Sub Station, the three siblings get into and out of comedic situations as they grapple with both their budding wizardly powers and typical teen challenges spanning school, friends and family.
