Sabrina The Teenage Witch: The Complete Series [DVD]

Product Information

VIDEO: Paramount presents "Sabrina: The Teenage Witch" in 1.33:1 full-frame, the show's original aspect ratio. Picture quality matches broadcast quality, as while sharpness and detail aren't exceptional, the image at least looks moderately crisp throughout. Some slight artifacting is seen in a few moments here-and-there (mainly in some darker scenes), but the picture otherwise looked clean and clear. Colors looked bright and well-saturated, with no smearing or other concerns. Milton: Sabrina's vampire boyfriend. In the original cast list of Gravestone Heights, Milton is listed as a friend of Sabrina's that is a mummy who is "all wrapped up in himself", while Sabrina's "very vein" vampire boyfriend is named Drac. In later comics, it was explained that Milton had to wrap himself up like a mummy to protect himself from the sunlight. The series was critically acclaimed, with Thrillist calling it "one of the best comics of the year" [21] and commercially successful. Archie Comics announced a second series to debut in the winter of 2020 with the same creative team. I think we both envisioned it as a one-shot and were surprised when fans asked for more. We continued to do Sabrina stories off and on in Mad House until 1969 when we were flabbergasted to hear it was to become an animated [TV series]. When it came to naming Sabrina I decided to name her after a woman I recalled from my junior high school days...who was very active in school affairs, and who assigned a number of us to interview prominent people in the media. In addition, the woman's name had a New England ring to it. Some years later I recalled the woman's name was not Sabrina, but actually Sabra Holbrook." [3]

Sabrina Spellman: the lead character of the series. In the early comic series, Sabrina is a well-meaning girl, but she struggles with constant pressure to be "bad" from all the other witches around her, especially her aunts, as well as learning to master her powers. Later comics incarnations (and media spinoffs) present other witches, including her aunts, as largely "good," though Sabrina still struggles to fully master her powers.It is a basketball game between Riverdale High and Crosstown High, and when Crosstown High is cheating, Sabrina tries to counter them.

I think everyone I have ever known has at least heard of "Sabrina The Teenage Witch," and a lot of them have watched and loved the show. Even today I come across people who are still discovering Sabrina thanks to it recently being shown on daytime TV.

After Mummy turns off Aunt Hilda’s loud record, she puts a curse on him that makes music blare from his mouth.

Sabrina the Teenage Witch debuted in Archie's Madhouse (the logo is sometimes given as Archie's Mad House) #22 (Oct. 1962). Created by writer George Gladir and artist Dan DeCarlo. [2] She first appeared in that humor anthology's lead story (the logo then spelled "Teen-Age"), [3] and eventually became one of Archie Comics' major characters, appearing in an animated series and a television sitcom. Gladir recalled in 2007, After their Christmas week in Jamaica is canceled, Sabrina draws the ire of Mother Nature and has to make amends by cheering up mean Mr. Kraft. Enchantra: The Queen of Witches, and head of the Witches' Council. [22] Most of her appearances were in Sabrina: Secrets of a Teenage Witch. Extras: The only extra you get is a brief episode breakdown on the inside flap of the DVD cover. I would have hoped for audio commentaries, behind the scenes, bloopers, or even some of the talk show stuff that was all over the place when this came out but there wasn't any. Sorry! The ongoing themes were the same as pretty much every other sitcom aimed at the same demographic; you make your own way in life, using your own abilities and for every shortcut are a thousand pitfalls (following in the traditions of every other sitcom to date, including Leave It To Beaver, I Dream of Jeannie, and Hazel as examples). Typically, Sabrina would be faced with her teenager dilemma of the week, try to apply her newfound powers to fix it, make it worse, and then figure out a way to make things right (an admittedly generic formula used by writers of TV since the dawn of the medium). The role models provided were all innocuous and generic but some of the supporting cast did a decent job of standing out at times, even if they were clearly written in as either foils or props for the writers to give Sabrina something to do.Sabrina and her friends enjoy the costume ball, but when it is 9:00 PM on Demon's Eve, you can bet Sabrina's magic will go into disarray!

Sabrina made regular appearances in the comic book Archie's TV Laugh-Out. The title was published from 1969 to 1985, and consisted of 106 issues. [4] Esmeralda: Sabrina's younger cousin from the comic book series who is also a witch, but has an obnoxious, bratty attitude. Her character is similar to Sabrina's young cousin Amanda from the live-action TV sitcom (who was played by actress Melissa Joan Hart's real-life younger sister, Emily Hart). [26]

Hilda Spellman: Sabrina's aunt. In the earlier comics, Hilda is portrayed dressed as and behaving in a more stereotypical witch manner, including being cranky, disliking mortals (particularly Harvey), and prone to using her powers for revenge or resolving petty disputes. The 1990s comics toned down Hilda's cranky behavior and modernized her clothing and physical appearance. The Goolies head to the beach on the same day that Archie and his friends decide to go for a swim, so Sabrina tries to keep her friends and her cousins apart. Sound: The audio was presented in the original 2.0 Dolby Digital English with optional CC for the hearing impaired. The audio wasn't anything fancy and didn't give my home theatre a workout but it was clean and free of major issues with the vocals. The apparent change in music was less of a factor for me since I had never seen or heard most of the episodes but the idea of it alone is enough to merit attention from me as something for consumers to be wary of (lowering my rating to a rental status). In all though, it sounded like a network show from the mid 1990's (Salem's voice-overs weren't always consistent though). When Ratso and Batso dog-sit for Jughead, Hauntleroy interferes, resulting in Hot Dog growing to the size of a house.Brucie: Sabrina's young mystical prankster cousin from Sabrina the Teenage Witch #18 (1974) that she has to babysit.

A strict, short-tempered authority figure, Della does not approve of Sabrina using magic to help others. Della largely appears in the earlier comics.
