Magician of the Century David Copperfield is slated to join the fun on the Emmy Award-winning comedy series Wizards of Waverly Place.
We’ll be watching. Of course, we would be watching anyway because WizWavelley (what the cool kids call the show) is one of our favorite Disney Channel series – tied with Phineas & Ferb and Jessie starring our favorite from Zack and Cody’s spin-off, The Suite Life on Deck, Debby Ryan.
Yes, we are just outside the Disney Channel demographics by about forty or sixty or ninety years, but we like good writing and those three shows have plenty of well-written stuff for us to steal. As many Inside Magic readers know, we publish a daily newsletter for stand-up comics and magicians.
On rare occasions – like daily – we run out of funny things to say. Rather than refund our subscribers’ yearly fee, we steal liberally from sources our readers are unlikely to know. It works like this.
Original Scene:
Series: Phineas & Ferb:
Episode: Boyfriend from 27,000 BC
First Aired: June 7, 2008
Phineas: They say if you love something, let it go.
Ferb: Especially if it’s a caveman.
Phineas: Yeah. Especially if it’s a caveman.
Our Tweeking:
I have a magnet on my refrigerator that reminds me, “If you love something, let it go.” That is so true. I was telling that very same thing to my girl the other night – she’s a cavewoman. She nodded and blurted sweet nothings in my ear, “let me go or I eat you!”
Result: Comedy Gold, Baby!
Magician extraordinaire David Copperfield will guest star as himself in the episode titled Harperella.
