'Sabrina: The Teenage Witch' (1996-2003)

This teenage sitcom (based on the famous Archie Comic series) was followed by many teenagers in the late '90s. They were glued to their screens to watch the ABC channel section 'T.G.I.F' (Thank God Is Friday).

7 seasons in 7 seven years

The first episode of the show aired on the 27th of September 1996, but the series continued for another seven seasons over seven years. In April 2003, Sabrina said goodbye to fans.

An iconic '90s show

The show was so successful that it was transformed into other kinds of media products. 'Sabrina: The Teenage Witch' had several video games for PC, Playstation, and Game Boy, and was turned into several animated series.

The Chilling Adventure of Sabrina

But that wasn't it. The story of Sabrina worked so well that in 2018, Netflix released another series based on the Archie comics. This time, Sabrina was played by Kiernan Shipka and the entire show had a darker horror feel to it.
