"Positive Alex" is the tenth episode of season three of Wizards of Waverly Place, and the sixty-first of the overall series. It first aired on February 26, 2010.
Synopsis
Alex develops a major crush on a guy at school named George, who is leader of the school band, but he does not find her attractive because of her negative attitude and lack of energy. Determined to get George to go to the dance with her and like her, she uses a magical marker on herself to become a positive person. At first, things go great and George actually shows interest in her, but the new optimism of Alex begins to cause issues when the cheerleaders begin to boo at the opposing team, which 'Positive Alex' finds a very negative thing to do, so she suggests that they should all cheer for everyone. In the end, George still refuses to go out with her because her cheering for the opposing team causes their school to lose, which evidently shows that her positive attitude was getting out of hand.
Meanwhile, Justin joins the basketball team in an attempt to create the best memories for his high school senior year, and gives Max a camera to film all his accomplishments on the team. When Justin asks Max to view the video, it shows that all he recorded was nonsense and nothing of the actual game.
