Season 1 Review: There are a lot of surprising things about Sabrina, the fall’s first truly binge-worthy new show. It’s a delight and an obsession, and the scariest thing about it is just how good it is. Read full review

Season 1 Review: The ominous setting plays into the high stakes facing Sabrina and her friends, while the efficient scripts and lavish production design build an immersive, exciting space to explore them. To say it’s the best “Sabrina” yet is a bit reductive, but it’s certainly a new series worth screaming about. Read full review

Season 1 Review: Sabrina is also possessed by the spirit of Kevin Williamson’s script for Wes Craven’s “Scream”: there’s a giddy cleverness in how it shouts out its own tropes and knowing riffs, in the service of minting a Faustian coming-of-age tale in which the retro atmosphere mingles with progressive gender politics.

Season 1 Review: This is a show that’s willing to both revel in the witch fantasy and to think about its limitations in a way I’ve never quite seen a TV show do before, to examine about what kind of women are allowed to be powerful, and what kinds of boundaries are put upon them in consequence. And it has an incredible amount of fun while it does so. Read full review

Season 3 Review: A cheeky meditation on the lust for power and the internal struggle between good and evil in us all, the series does exceptionally well when it chooses to eschew the doldrums of mortality for dark and delicious occultism. Read full review

It's amazing, I love how the plot is well developed and the characters are well explored Sabrina manages to take us to the World of Magic in a totally different way and this is incredible.

I watched first 5 or 6 episodes in a row, and I was very hyped for the rest of the series, but season 2 basically screwed that up. Still pretty nice to watch if there's nothing else to do.

Unfortunately the show is a huge let down. The acting is fine. For the most part all of the players do what they can with what they are given. The writing on the other hand . . . is bad. Really bad. Despite being a teenager, Sabrina is better at magic than witches that are hundreds of years older than her. Fine, that goes with the story. I can live with it. What really just drove me insane though is how unlikeable all of the characters are. I loved Hilda Spellman. At times I thought Ambrose was great as well. Beyond that . . . ughs.

A lot of my issues with the characters deals with the type of feminism they have chosen to promote. To me it should be well rounded female and male characters with agency. Instead they went the route of making every single male character stupid, vain, and unlikeable. I mean there are lines that the devil is stupid, controlling, and evil, because of his gender (which they make sure you know is male). They elevate women by tearing down men. It is the laziest type of writing, and it immediately alienated me. The writers also clearly don't know anything about anyone from a rural area. The background characters are all hicks. The miners walk around with coal dust on the faces even when not at the mines. Deer hunting is portrayed as a flat out sinister act. Do the writers understand that we eat animals? Where do they think that comes from? Don't even get me started on Suzie/Theo's "plot." Suzie is picked on. Suzie decides she is actually a man. Suzie is angry that she can't get on the basketball team despite having no athletic ability and being 90lbs soaking wet. The writers decided to jam in a transgendered plot. It has nothing to do with the story narrative, but it is just used to show over and over again how terrible straight white men can be. This series should be cancelled.… Expand

I don't know why my review for this show got erased after a year of being on this site. Shouldn't one be notified and explained why? This show has to be the most egregious display of modern identity politics, infecting everything in today's society. I had to force myself to watch at leastI don't know why my review for this show got erased after a year of being on this site. Shouldn't one be notified and explained why? This show has to be the most egregious display of modern identity politics, infecting everything in today's society. I had to force myself to watch at least three episodes to be absolutely sure that it was as bad as I thought. I hated everything about it. The way that Hollywood portrays gay characters is a HUGE stereotype.. harking to the days of the American adaptation of Queer As Folk, apparently, we are all Brian Kenneys (the most promiscuous and amoral sex fiend who has all of the emotional depth of a psychopath) Isn't it ironic that while simultaneously claiming to be championing for inclusivity, Hollywood forces all gay characters into being huge stereotypes. I, as a gay male, am offended by the portrayal of the gay character. While I'm at it, Hollywood needs to realize that T.V. sex scenes are incredibly boring and stupid. The audience that they are so obviously aiming their propaganda towards are the millennials. The generation that has had the most unprecedented access to porn from the internet, ever! What makes the writers think that anyone would be titillated by repeated, protracted and meaningless sex scenes is one of the biggest disconnects from our reality and Hollywood ever. The soft porn, heavy breathing and unrealistic sex scenes are laughable at best and is an other example of how Hollywood is groping and flailing like an inexperienced lover to appear to be sex positive. We still don't see a man full frontal as if our penises are some kind of sacred cow. So much for being progressive and sex positive. Hypocrites, all of them. The identity politics infect this show to such an extent that it really doesn't make any sense at all. The sudden injection of the concept of The White Male Patriarchy as if it was an actual fact and something that everyone is supposed to know and accept as real is worse than Pravda. The wining and complaining that the evil white male school administrator is the most ridiculous cartoon villain ever portrayed since Boris and Natasha from Rocky and Bullwinkle. It's so exaggerated that any critical thinking person would be asking, how can that character even exist in reality without being fired or brought up on charges. Ham fisted identity politics is the climate these days and it seems that no matter how much push back that comes from these minority groups, Hollywood is determined to ram these narratives down our throats. Finally, the violence. My best way of describing the violence in this show is like this. Think of someone telling a children's story... and then suddenly, a Tarantino like violent scene suddenly is injected seemingly out of random. I love a good Horror film and Tarantino is one of my faves but this show seems to use violence and identity politics as if the two go hand in hand. I give this show a 9/10 for propaganda content.… Expand
