Let me just say right up front that I am very disappointed that there is no humorous talking cat in

Sabrina the Teenage Witch of TGIF days past. It is not fun and light-hearted. It’s dark and cynical with a very heavy dose of fighting the male patriarchy through very anti-Christian means at the heart of the storyline.
Released October 26, just in time for Halloween, the first season is 10 one-hour episodes centered around the struggle of teenager Sabrina Spellman (Kiernan Shipka), a half-witch who must decide on her sixteenth birthday (Halloween) if she will become a full witch or remain in the mortal world.

Chilling Adventures of Sabrina has always been pulled in too many directions. Half-mortal/half-witch Sabrina Spellman (Kiernan Shipka) started the series by dividing her time between getting a normal teenage education at Baxter High, focusing on social-justice causes, studying magic at the Academy of the Unseen Arts, trying to fight the patriarchy running the Satanic Church of Night, and protecting the town of Greendale from supernatural threats.
