Sabrina the Teenage Witch - The Complete Animated Series Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Now you can enjoy Sabrina the Teen-age Witch, her tail-zapping red cat Salem, her witchy aunts Hilda and Zelda, her warlock-cousin Ambrose, and Head Witch Miss Della in all 31 episodes from the original FILMation animated series.
In its initial concept stage, this series was supposed to feature the teen-age versions of Samantha and Darrin from "Bewitched", but the producers were uncomfortable with Samantha dominating the airwaves on both ABC and CBS. With the success of "The Archie Show", Norm Prescott, Lou Scheimer, and Hal Sutherland turned to a lesser-known Archie Comics character who appeared in "Madhouse Comics", Sabrina. Instead of twitching her nose to trigger her magic, they had Sabrina tug her ear. Stories focused on high school situations to relate to young Saturday morning viewers, and Archie and the gang even guest-starred in some of the episodes. (Eventually, Samantha and Darrin's children, Tabitha and Adam Stephens, starred in their own cartoon on "The Saturday Superstar Movie" on ABC. The episode was called "Tabitha, Adam and the Clown Family", and it was produced by Hanna-Barbera Productions. The animation was rushed and choppy, and it was extremely inferior compared to the Sabrina series on CBS.)
Fans old and new will enjoy seeing Sabrina's enormous bedroom and her "groovy" broom with the big flower roof! Some of the stunning special effects were used in Melissa Joan Hart's 1996 series based on the character (i.e., the magic dust and flashes of light). Even the ear tug was utilized in Hart's series. If you recall, teen-witch Dreama tugged her ear to make magic.
So what are you waiting for? This series has it all - - a cute concept, a hilarious cast of characters, clever writing, and a whole lot of FUN! "Sabrina the Teen-age Witch" is definitely a must-have for your personal DVD library!!
