The Sabrina series has a few different entries on IMDb, so it depends which one you're talking about! The 1996 sitcom 'Sabrina the Teenage Witch' holds a 6.5/10, which feels fair—it’s nostalgic comfort food with its cheesy special effects and Melissa Joan Hart’s charm, but definitely not high art. Then there’s the darker 2018 Netflix reboot 'Chilling Adventures of Sabrina,' sitting at a stronger 7.4/10. That one’s way more my vibe—gothic horror meets teen drama, with Kiernan Shipka absolutely devouring the role. The ratings reflect how divisive it was, though; some fans adored the tone shift, while others missed the lightness of the original.
Funny enough, the animated 'Sabrina: Secrets of a Teenage Witch' from 2013 flopped hard with a 3.8/10, which… yeah, that tracks. It lacked the magic (pun intended) of the other versions. Personally, I’d argue 'Chilling Adventures' deserved even higher—its world-building was lush, and the supporting cast (especially Miranda Otto as Zelda) was phenomenal. But ratings are so subjective; I know folks who’d defend the original’s campiness to the death!
If we’re talking IMDb, 'Chilling Adventures of Sabrina' (7.4) outranks the original sitcom (6.5), which makes sense—it’s slicker, sexier, and way more ambitious. The original’s rating reflects its era; it’s pure 90s fluff, but Hart’s Sabrina is iconic. The animated versions? Forgettable. That 2013 one is barely a blip at 3.8. Personally, I think the Netflix version’s score should’ve been higher; its blend of horror and humor was unique, even if the later seasons got messy. Ratings don’t always capture how much a show matters to fans, though.
IMDb ratings for the Sabrina shows are all over the place, and honestly, it’s fascinating how they split audiences. The OG 'Sabrina the Teenage Witch' is like a warm blanket—easy to mock for its dated effects, but it’s got this enduring charm that keeps it at a solid 6.5. The Netflix reboot, though? That 7.4 feels low to me. It nailed the creepy, witchy aesthetic while still delivering messy teen emotions. I binged it twice!
Then there’s the weird 90s animated series 'Sabrina the Animated Series,' which somehow has a 5.9—probably carried by nostalgia goggles. The real shocker is that 2013 animated flop with Ashley Tisdale voicing Sabrina. Oof. 3.8 is brutal, but deserved; it felt like a corporate checklist of 'how to ruin a fun premise.'

The 'Chilling Adventures of Sabrina' series, which is the darker, more supernatural take on Sabrina the Teenage Witch, has a total of four parts—though they're often referred to as seasons. The first two parts dropped with a more traditional season structure, but then Netflix split the third and fourth into shorter installments. Each part has its own vibe, honestly. The first one sets up Sabrina's struggle between her witch heritage and human life, while the later parts dive deeper into Hell, cosmic horror, and even time loops. It’s wild how much the tone shifts! I binged it all during a weekend, and by the end, I was both satisfied and a little heartbroken over how things wrapped up.
The show’s got this gothic aesthetic that’s so visually striking—like, every frame could be a poster. Kiernan Shipka absolutely carries the series as Sabrina, balancing vulnerability and fierceness perfectly. And the supporting cast? Michelle Gomez as Madam Satan is chef’s kiss. If you’re into witchy lore with a side of drama and occasional terror, it’s a must-watch. Though fair warning, the final season gets divisive; some fans felt it rushed the ending, but I appreciated the ambition.
If you're hunting for 'The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina', you're in luck because it's still floating around on Netflix! I binged the entire series last winter, and the dark, witchy vibes were perfect for curling up under a blanket. Netflix has all four parts, though fair warning—the tone shifts a bit after Part 2, leaning more into horror-lite.
For the OG 'Sabrina the Teenage Witch' fans, things get trickier. That classic isn’t on major platforms anymore, but I’ve stumbled across episodes on niche ad-supported sites like Pluto TV or Tubi. It’s a nostalgia trip, though the quality can be hit or miss. If you’re into physical media, the DVD sets are surprisingly affordable on eBay—I snagged one for my sister’s birthday last year.
The original 'Sabrina the Teenage Witch' sitcom, starring Melissa Joan Hart, is such a nostalgic gem for me. It ran for a solid seven seasons from 1996 to 2003, and I still catch myself humming the theme song sometimes. The show had this quirky charm—Sabrina navigating high school, magic mishaps, and her aunts' eccentric advice. It’s wild how it balanced silly humor with heartfelt moments, like her relationship with Harvey or the chaos of her talking cat, Salem. I binged it during a lazy summer a few years back, and it holds up surprisingly well for a '90s show. The later seasons got a bit wackier with college plots, but the core vibe never faded.
There’s also the darker Netflix reboot, 'Chilling Adventures of Sabrina', which wrapped up after four seasons. Totally different tone—more horror than comedy—but Kiernan Shipka killed it as Sabrina. Funny how one character can span such contrasting interpretations. The original’s seven-season run feels like a cozy blanket, though; it’s the version I’d replay for comfort.
