You will get into the holiday spirit, darn it! You will.
It's a Wonderful Lifetime continues with another delightful holiday movie that had you curling up with a cup of hot cocoa and escaping into a world where love and Christmas abounded.
There's no reservation about the pure cuteness of Christmas Reservations.
Gabrielle Solis' husband (Ricardo Chavira from Desperate Housewives) and Sabrina the Teenage Witch (Melissa Joan Hart) were in love.
As if the movie didn't have instant bonus points for all the references to Western and Upstate New York, it had a fun, quirky cast of characters and multiple love stories with happy endings.

“No Good Nick” has been canceled at Netflix after only a single season, which was split into two parts, Variety has confirmed.
Created and executive produced by David H. Steinberg and Keetgi Kogan, the multi-camera comedy starred Melissa Joan Hart and Sean Astin as Liz and Ed, a hyper-competitive career mom and lovable but dorky “fun dad,” respectively, who unwittingly welcome 13-year-old Nick — short for Nicole (Siena Agudong) — into their family of four before realizing she is a street-smart con artist with a secret agenda.
Nick has infiltrated the family with the intention to get revenge on them for unknowingly ruining her life. But as Nick gets to know the family, she will find compassion for them and will struggle with whether or not she can ultimately go through with the plan.
Kalama Epstein and Lauren Lindsey Donzis also starred. The series received a 20-episode order in Sept. 2018. The first 10 episodes of the series,...

The world can be a depressing place, but that doesn't mean TV has to be. Here are some of the most optimistic TV dramas.
This article comes from Den of Geek UK.
Think of a handful of the most watched and acclaimed dramas of recent years. The Handmaid’s Tale. Game Of Thrones. Chernobyl. They’re not a cheerful bunch, are they? Comedy-drama Orange is the New Black spent much of its final season highlighting the plight of those caught in the United States’ horrifying immigration systems. New Star Trek series Discovery has gone for a dark, gritty feel and some downbeat storylines. Even cute '90s sitcom Sabrina the Teenage Witch has been re-imagined as dark teen drama The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina, in which Sabrina’s aunts encourage her to be baptized into the Church of Night.

WarnerMedia is looking to make the mood right all over again. To help feed its upcoming streaming service, the media conglomerate is reportedly considering rebooting or reviving classic Tgif sitcoms— including Step by Step, Family Matters, Perfect Strangers and Hangin’ with Mr. Cooper — according to TVLine’s sister site Deadline.
For those tragically unfamiliar, Tgif was an ABC programming block of family comedies that aired on Friday nights in the 1990s. Along with the aforementioned shows, Tgif also brought us classic series like Full House, Boy Meets World and Sabrina the Teenage Witch.

Laszlo goes bats on What We Do in the Shadows episode 5, Animal Control.

What We Do in the Shadows Episode 5
What We Do in the Shadows reaches its peak of silliness in episode 5. "Animal Control" could almost be a kids' episode. Besides Nadja's (Natasia Demetriou) openly hungry sexuality, everything is rendered all-ages upon Laszlo's (Matt Berry) animistic incarceration. This plot could have been lifted from a Benji movie, and could have made for an episode of Sabrina the Teenage Witch, and only a humorous subplot on the newer, darker Chilling Adventures of Sabrina.
The plot is Laszlo turns into a bat, gets locked up in a cage at the pound, and Nandor turns into a dog to save him. It's cute, really, and for a show like What We Do in the Shadows, that makes it dangerous. These vampires...

It’s unlikely that anyone who grew up in the 90s won’t have spent at least some of their youth watching Sabrina The Teenage Witch. The hit show aired from the mid-90s onwards, ran for more than 150 episodes, spawned 3 television movies and made actress Melissa Joan Hart a household name. Funny, colourful, wholesome and with an audience of millions, the much-loved show, which still airs today, has been prime reboot real estate for some time. It was simply a question of who had warts big enough to do it.
Enter Netflix and writer/producer Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa.
Based on the Archie comic, their new incarnation joins the half-witch/half-mortal Sabrina Spellman (Kiernan Shipka) a few days shy of her 16th birthday.

After finding success with the ridiculous Jughead who f*cks “Riverdale” high school series, Netflix, likely thirsty from seeing the success metrics of the CW show acquired for their streaming platform, quickly jumped into the young adult TV world with the “Chilling Adventures Of Sabrina” spin-off. Based on the Sabrina The Teenage Witch comic and character made popular through the Archie Comics—which itself was adapted into the horny “Riverdale”— the similarities fortunately mostly end there.

Happy Tuesday, fellow Big Brother fans. We're back at you again with another Celebrity Big Brother season 2 report. This one was spawned by the season 8 winner himself Evel Dick Donato! He's very active on his personal Twitter account, and yesterday January 7, 2019, he revealed a list that was sent to him that featured the CBS Celebrity Big Brother logo on it and a supposed cast list that featured a couple of other celebrities that were not mentioned in the previous leaked list we ran. This one has much bigger names on it. In Evel Dick's tweet he captioned the leaked list photo with the following words: "Don't know how legit this is, but I'm just gonna pass it on...One that is troubling is Dan Crenshaw. He was just elected & sworn in, first term. He's gonna leave responsibilities to get locked in a house for a month? So, seems fishy." You...

ABC’s recent tradition of family-friendly half-hours continues with “Schooled,” a half-hour spinoff of period comedy “The Goldbergs” that moves character Lainey Lewis (Aj Michalka) into adulthood, where she’s returning to her high school to teach music to a group of jaded ‘90s kids. The show’s action transpires, coincidentally or not, during a golden era for sitcoms that tweens, teens, and parents could watch together, one in which ABC broadcast shows including “Step by Step” and “Sabrina the Teenage Witch”. Given its setting and its premise, so simple as to be a throwback, it’d seem like “Schooled” is set up for, if not greatness, than at least amiable, “Hanging With Mr. Cooper”-style competence.
But for all the references to late-20th-century culture crammed into the first installment—the pilot’s plot hinges, at different points, on a bottle of much-pilloried malt cooler Zima and on Phil Donahue...

Kal Penn used “Throwback Thursday” on social media to call out a stage manager at a recent TV Upfronts presentation who was racist toward him and his “Designated Survivor” co-star Maggie Q. Penn posted a photograph showing the names of the “Designated Survivor” cast and crew who were promoting the show on an Upfronts panel, but the unnamed stage manager annotated the guide by writing “Asian” next to Maggie Q’s name and “Indian” next to Penn’s name. None of the caucasian cast members had any annotations describing their race.
Maggie Q shared Penn’s photograph on her own social media pages, writing, “That’s right. We aren’t white so we needed a classification.”
Both Penn and Maggie Q have had series regular roles on “Designated Survivor” since the show launched on ABC in September 2016. The political thriller series stars Kiefer Sutherland as a politician who becomes President...

A love of horror runs in series creator Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa’s blood, and it comes out in “Chilling Adventures of Sabrina,” his dark take on the classic Archie Comics title “Sabrina the Teenage Witch.” In adapting his comic book for Netflix, he discussed some of those horror influences with Lee Toland Krieger, who would be setting the tone of the series by directing the first two episodes.
“He arranged a screening of clips from some of our favorite movies,” Aguirre-Sacasa said. “The three great witch movies are ‘Rosemary’s Baby,’ Dario Argento’s ‘Suspiria,’ and Robert Eggers’ movie ‘The Witch,’ that came out a few years ago. And then even more recently, Ti West’s movie, ‘House of the Devil,’ and Oz Perkins’ ‘The Blackcoat’s Daughter,’ starring Kiernan [Shipka] actually.

“Chilling Adventures of Sabrina” has received critical acclaim for its progressive take on the popular 1960s Archie Comics character, but fans are disappointed with one change: Salem the cat does not speak. It’s a jarring switch compared to the mouthy, wisecracking feline that inspired countless GIFs from the 1990s sitcom “Sabrina the Teenage Witch.”
Kiernan Shipka, who now plays the titular Sabrina Spellman, said, “It’s nothing like the ‘90s sassy, mean Salem at all. That’s its own thing that we’re not going to try to compete with or be in the slightest because you can’t live up to that in any way. This is more of a subtle sort of nod, I would say, to the old show.”
Salem does talk in Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa’s ‘Chilling Adventures of Sabrina’ comic book, but that wasn’t his original intent. The comic was dark, and a talking cat wasn’t.

The “Chilling Adventures of Sabrina” is finally here — but how does the Greendale of the comic books stack up against Netflix’s on-screen version?
The show remains pretty truthful to the comics — which makes sense, considering that the writer of the “Sabrina” graphic novels, Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa, is also the series’ showrunner — but there are a few notable differences between the Netflix series’ first episode and the first issue of the comics.
See below for the biggest differences.

[Editor’s Note: The following contains spoilers from “Chilling Adventures of Sabrina” Season 1, including its finale. For a spoiler-free discussion, read IndieWire’s review.]
In the season finale of “Chilling Adventures of Sabrina,” Kiernan Shipka’s titular character fully embraced her witch half and signed her soul away to the devil, further complicating her already unusual relationship with death. “Without spoiling anything in Season 2, there’s a lot of mourning of her mortality,” said Shipka.
It’s a bittersweet look ahead for the character, who was reimagined by Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa from Archie Comics’ “Sabrina the Teenage Witch.” The new incarnation had been touched by death from the start; Sabrina Spellman never knew her parents because they died in an accident when she was an infant. Also, she resides in a house that doubles as a mortuary operated by her witch aunts and cousin.

It’s a bittersweet look ahead for the character, who was reimagined by Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa from Archie Comics’ “Sabrina the Teenage Witch.” The new incarnation had been touched by death from the start; Sabrina Spellman never knew her parents because they died in an accident when she was an infant. Also, she resides in a house that doubles as a mortuary operated by her witch aunts and cousin.

It must be the season of the witch. October 26 saw witches unleashed on the big screen with “Suspiria” and on the small screen with Netflix’s “Chilling Adventures of Sabrina.” Based on the same Archie Comics character that inspired the 1990s sitcom “Sabrina the Teenage Witch,” this new variation is a much darker take on the story of high-schooler Sabrina Spellman (“Mad Men” alum Kiernan Shipka). But is it worth watching?
Developed for television by Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa, who also created the CW’s “Riverdale” and wrote the 2014 comic book “Chilling Adventures” is based on, this new horror series has a MetaCritic score of 77 based on 21 reviews as of this writing. And it’s 88% fresh on Rotten Tomatoes based on 43 reviews. The critics consensus on Rotten Tomatoes calls the series “bewitchingly beautiful and wickedly macabre,” and it “provides a perfect showcase” for Shipka.

Witches' familiars are not household pets. Chilling Adventures of Sabrina finds truth from a feline friend.
Chilling Adventures of Sabrina's teen witch Sabrina Spellman, played by Kiernan Shipka, is a student so gifted she is sought by two schools, Greendale High School and the School of Unseen Arts. As a half-witch, she travels, sometimes astrally, in two worlds and has the same problems as the inhabitants of both. She has a dutiful boyfriend, devoted friends, and even more devoted enemies. Like most kids who go to boarding schools, Sabrina isn't allowed to take her pet to school with her. But this is a very special creature, and Sabrina has a very special bond with it. It is her familiar. Sabrina conjures her familiar in the opening episode of the series, which makes the attempt to merge the real magic and traditions of witchcraft with the comic book fantasy of witchery.

The stars of the original”Sabrina the Teenage Witch” are wishing the best for the cast of Netflix’s “Chilling Adventures of Sabrina,” which comes out on the streaming platform tomorrow.
Melissa Joan Hart offered some advice to Kiernan Shipka, saying “from one Sabrina to the other, if you’re ever given a choice between a broom and a vacuum, choose the vacuum,” she said with a wink in a video shared on Netflix’s See What’s Next Twitter account.
Nate Richert, who played Harvey on the ABC/WB series, also had some words of encouragement for his replacement, Ross Lynch: “I hear the new ‘Sabrina’ is scarier and pretty damn twisted. I’m rooting for you, buddy. Stay alive!”

There's a new teenage witch in town. With the debut of Chilling Adventures of Sabrina this Friday, Kiernan Shipka brings new life to the plucky half-witch from Archie Comics, a life that's very different from the one she lived in Sabrina the Teenage Witch. This new Sabrina lives in a much darker world, with much, much darker witch rules to live by and much bigger, much scarier stakes if she screws it up (which the young witch is wont to do). The 18 year-old Shipka, best known for playing Sally Draper on Mad Men, sat down with E! News when we visited the set of the Netflix drama and gave us a few important things to know about the youngest Spellman. She has never really watched...

When it was announced that Netflix was developing a TV adaptation of the “Chilling Adventures of Sabrina” comics, one question naturally emerged: How would Salem the Cat factor into all this? The new show — which isn’t a remake of “Sabrina the Teenage Witch” but rather a new entity based on the same Archie Comics character — takes a darker approach than its predecessor, which is to say that the wisecracking feline who featured prominently in Melissa Joan Hart’s sitcom would likely have a different presence here.
That question remains unanswered for now, but at least we know that the new Salem (last name Saberhagen) can walk the black carpet. The black cat did just that at the show’s world premiere, a remarkable feat given how difficult it is to make a cat do anything it doesn’t want to without running away; this may be the surest sign...

If she had to sum up her titular character in “Chilling Adventures of Sabrina,” star Kiernan Shipka would describe Sabrina Spellman as a “woke witch.”
The series, which premieres Oct. 26 on Netflix, is a reimagining of the famous teen witch’s story that has overt feminist themes. On the show, Sabrina is a half-witch half-mortal and becomes the first to question the male figures who rule the witches’ world, which leads to her reluctance to sign a pact to renounce the mortal world and embrace her magical side.
“This is totally the Sabrina for 2018, in so many ways. She’s a woke witch,” Shipka told Variety. “Her entire grappling with signing her name away in the Book of the Beast and questioning a lot of the more patriarchal elements of what she was raised to believe and to go into. I think that in and of itself is very feminist...

The witching hour is most definitely upon us, and as Halloween draws near, streaming giant Netflix is adding a new original series to its ever-growing catalog of titles. Inspired by the Archie comic of the same name, “Chilling Adventures Of Sabrina” is a spooky and stylish adaptation of the devilish coming-of-age tale. However, don’t expect this to be a reboot of the late-’90s “Sabrina the Teenage Witch,” as ‘Chilling Adventures’ has more in common with the CW’s “Riverdale” than the ABC sitcom.

Dark and gritty remakes are the plat du jour of TV’s golden age, especially when drawing from comic books. However, Sabrina Spellman’s story earns the imposing shadows and prodigious screams that color her new Netflix series, “Chilling Adventures of Sabrina.” Ditching the bright and cheery tone established in Archie Comics’ original incantation and continued in the 1996 sitcom, “Sabrina the Teenage Witch,” it leans hard into the “witch” affiliations even without the word in its title. While still a teen story at heart — and one built for the masses — Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa’s take is laden with demons, trolls, warlocks, and more, all of which growl with enough menace to evoke a steady stream of shrieks.
What’s even more welcome than effective frights is how eager “Chilling Adventures” is to embrace the genre’s inclusive, progressive spirit. The teens of Greendale High like dissecting the allegories within zombie movies...

There is no shortage of darkness in Riverdale (especially after watching the tense season three trailer), and it looks like the show is about to take a turn into the supernatural. After months and months of hinting that the magic-loving Sabrina the Teenage Witch, who is very much a part of the Archie Comics universe, might make an appearance on the series, showrunner Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa all but confirmed the news during Riverdale's panel at New York Comic-Con on Friday.
"I'm first and foremost a fan of these two towns, Riverdale and Greendale," Aguirre-Sacasa said. "I love when comic book characters cross over, so it's a dream. Right now, we're focused on getting Sabrina out there and making sure Riverdale is as good as it can be. So, I'm hopeful!"
Aguirre-Sacasa's latest quote echoes what he previously teased to Entertainment Weekly when he mentioned that an appearance from Sabrina "has potential with a capital P.

The concept of magic and witches is nothing new to the American Horror Story universe. Since the third season, Coven, there has been an underlying mythology of powerful witches. And now that many of the previous seasons are colliding in Apocalypse, it turns out that the concept of witches is crucial to the story as a whole. Not only have we seen the return of the New Orleans coven, but we've also learned that Outpost 3 used to be a school for a male coven, in hiding after Cordelia revealed the existence of the magical community to the world at large. The male coven uses the term "warlock" to refer to their members, instead of "witch." What parts of witch/warlock lore are being kept the same, and what has been created by American Horror Story?
In general, the gendered terms "witch" and "warlock" are not uncommon. Both "wizard" and "warlock...

1. “Chilling Adventures of Sabrina” Season 1 (available October 26)
Why Should I Watch? After The CW found success turning a chaste ’40s comic book character into “hot Archie who fucks,” Netflix is taking your fond family memories of Tgif and twisting them into a horror show akin to “The Exorcist” and “Rosemary’s Baby.” That’s a direct quote from the “Chilling Adventures of Sabrina” press notes, as Netflix states its “dark, coming-of-age” origin story as “tonally” in line with the scariest movie of all time and a very scary film made by an even more monstrous man (respectively). If this is where “Sabrina the Teenage Witch” came from, perhaps it’s best to remember where she ended up.
Best Reason: Kiernan Shipka is back in a serialized narrative! No, that’s not as catchy as shouting, “Little Sally Draper is back on TV!”, but a) Shipka deserves to be seen outside...

Channel 4 has snapped up several new CBS dramas and will air the rebooted “Charmed” series and Harry Styles-produced comedy “Happy Together.” The British broadcaster has also secured new seasons of “The Good Wife” spinoff “The Good Fight” as part of a new programming deal with CBS Studios International.
“Charmed,” a re-imagining of the classic series about a group of sisters who are witches, will air on Channel 4’s E4 after its bow on The CW in the U.S.
“Happy Together,” which has One Direction star Harry Styles as an executive producer and stars Daman Wayans, Jr., is also for E4. It follows a thirty-something couple who reconnect with their younger, cooler selves when a young pop star moves in with them.

Paul Feig is one of the biggest directors in Hollywood, but long before directing films like Bridesmaids, Ghostbusters, and A Simple Favor, he was an actor on one of our favorite '90s TV shows. During the first season of Sabrina the Teenage Witch, Feig played Sabrina's dorky biology teacher, Mr. Eugene Pool. Even though his character was written out of the show after the first season, it was actually a silver lining for Feig, as he eventually turned to writing and directing instead.
After wrapping Sabrina the Teenage Witch, Feig went on to create, direct, and write for the fan-favorite show, Freaks and Geeks in 1999. Even though the series only lasted for one season, his career only skyrocketed from there as he went on to direct for shows like The Office, Arrested Development, Mad Men, Weeds, Parks and Recreation, and 30 Rock, just to name a few.

Okay, well this is definitely not “Sabrina the Teenage Witch,” huh?
In the first teaser for Netflix’s upcoming “Chilling Adventures of Sabrina,” we don’t get much in the way of plot or dialogue, other than a creepy rendition of “Happy Birthday,” but what we do get is a heaping helping of style and tone. That style and tone is a night and day difference from the Melissa Joan Hart version of this story.

Thanks to EW, we have our best look yet at Netflix's upcoming series The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina, which comes from Riverdale showrunner Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa. This is going to be a much darker take on Sabrina The Teenage Witch.
It's explained that the series "traffics in horror, the occult and witchcraft." It’s also described as being in the vein of Rosemary’s Baby and The Exorcist and "finds Sabrina wrestling to reconcile her dual nature as a half-witch, half-mortal while fighting the evil forces that threaten her, her family and the daylight world humans inhabit."
The show is based on the comic of the same name and stars Kiernan Shipka in the role of Sabrina, along with Miranda Otto, Lucy Davis, Ross Lynch, Michelle Gomez, Chance Perdomo, and more.

If you’ve been keeping up with what Archie Comics have been doing in recent years, then you’re probably aware of how they’ve branched out far beyond comedy. Not only has the publisher injected more drama into their flagship books, but they’ve also released a variety of very solid horror titles as well, such as Afterlife with Archie, Jughead: The Hunger and Chilling Adventures of Sabrina.
Though many assumed that the TV adaptation chronicling the adventures of the teenage witch would land over at The CW and serve as a spinoff to Riverdale, that’s no longer the case. Instead, the show’s headed to Netflix, where it’s been picked up for two, ten-episode seasons. And with production well underway now, the marketing campaign’s beginning to heat up.
Case in point: in the gallery below you’ll find the very first photos for Chilling Adventures of Sabrina.
