The show included contemporary pop cultural references, with Sabrina often saying that she liked Britney Spears and No Doubt.

Sabrina's basic premise and "genial loopiness" earned the show comparisons to the 1960s television series Bewitched. Additionally, Hilda and Zelda must take care of Salem Saberhagen (voiced by Nick Bakay), a witch turned into a cat for trying to take over the world. Her witch aunts Hilda and Zelda Spellman (played by Caroline Rhea and Beth Broderick, respectively, until 2002) counsel her on the proper use of her magic and give her moral advice. As a novice witch, her spells often go awry. 16 on The CW.The show chronicles the adventures of Sabrina Spellman (played by Melissa Joan Hart), a girl who discovers on her 16th birthday that she is a witch. However, no release date has been set for that. Or the answers could lie in the pages of The Occult World of Sabrina, a continuation comic that follows the events of the show, and sees her aunt Zelda put a team together to go rescue her wayward niece. After all, her own show never shied away from bringing folk back to life as needed. Her appearance could be a part of Cheryl's spell, and this could be Sabrina's spirit presiding over the whole thing. Of course, Sabrina's appearance brings up a few key issues, namely the fact that she's technically dead as of the series finale of Chilling Adventures. Everyone on set lost their minds - I think fans will, too. "It's also perfect that she shows up to help Cheryl Blossom during her hour of greatest need. "We've been talking about having Sabrina visit Riverdale since Season 1, so it's thrilling that this is finally happening, as part of our 'Rivervale' special event," Aguirre-Sacasa said. But Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa, who served as showrunner for TCOAS and Riverdale later confirmed the news to Entertainment Weekly. Riverdale writer Evan Kyle first mentioned the news while doing a Q&A on The Dipp following the Season 5 finale. To say fans have been hoping for this since it was first announced that Sabrina would be getting her own series on Netflix, would be a bit of an understatement. Having Sabrina on Riverdale is a big deal not only because the character originated in the pages of Archie comics, but she's also been a popular mainstay ever since, even getting her own separate comic series that follows her adventures as her attempts to practice magic lead to various mishaps and hijinks. So who better to assist than a witch who's moved mostly hell for her loved ones? (And even reigned over it at one point.)

Sabrina will reportedly make her appearance in Episode 4, which is aptly titled "The Witching Hour(s)" as it centres on Cheryl Blossom (Madeline Petsch) performing a spell while a beloved Blossom family member's life hangs between life and death. "From Greendale to Riverdale," reads the caption alongside a photo of Shipka in her actor's chair, with "Sabrina Spellman" written above the show's name ( Riverdale). If you thought you'd seen the last of Sabrina Spellman (or Morningstar) when the Chilling Adventures of Sabrina came to a close late last year, then you'd be mistaken!Īccording to a post on actress Kiernan Shipka's Instagram, she'll be reprising everyone's favorite teenage witch in an upcoming episode of The CW's Riverdale when it returns for its sixth season.
