Something Witchy: A Sabrina the Teenage Witch Rewatch

2.03: I Blame John Grisham

This week, we’re recapping Dummy for Love (Season 2, Episode 3), where Sabrina meddles in her aunt’s love life with a literal dummy spell. We talk about jury duty for way too long, possibly offend Pauly Shore, and ponder whether Sabrina might be a little… murdery? Plus, we’re asking the big questions—like would you rather have too many eyes or too many ears? Enjoy this special episode where we left (almost) everything in.

2.02: Not Part 3, Not Part 1, Part 2

Sabrina’s at witch camp and still has a lot to prove—especially if she wants to keep her powers and her boyfriend. In Part 2 of the Season 2 premiere, Sabrina attempts a magical jailbreak, crashes the school dance, and learns a tough lesson about balancing responsibility with personal life. Plus, we break down that bittersweet ending and what it means for Sabrina going forward. Did this episode pass our quiz with flying colors? Tune in to find out!

2.01: We Are The Authority

In Season 2 Episode 1, Sabrina Gets Her License: Part 1, Sabrina’s 17th birthday takes a turn when she’s handed a magical handbook and told she has just two chances to pass her witch’s license test—or face Witch Camp. Meanwhile, new girl Valerie arrives, Libby’s still a menace, and Harvey’s just trying to get someone to bake cookies. We talk about missing characters, awkward hat choices, and new teachers. Salem goes on a sushi adventure, the aunts come into some magical money, and Sabrina accidentally zaps a train into her house. It’s chaos, it’s classic, and it’s only part one. Join us as we dig into the magical mayhem of this Season 2 premiere!

S1 Break: Murder Brings Out the Best in Me

This week on Something Witchy, we’re diving into the chaotic world of competitive high school dance moms with the Lifetime original movie Killing the Competition (2025), starring our favorite witch-turned-wild-parent, Melissa Joan Hart.
Inspired by “real events” (question mark heavily implied), this bonkers TV movie follows Elizabeth Fenwick, a mother so obsessed with reliving her glory days that she takes “dance mom” to horrifying new extremes—including sabotage, stalking, and kidnapping—all in the name of her daughter's high school dance team dreams.
Is it a Lifetime masterpiece or a hot mess? We’ve got thoughts, theories, and plenty of sarcastic asides.

S1 Break: Do We All Just Need Makeovers?

This week’s episode of Something Witchy is a little different — we watched Clueless together, in person! Just two co-hosts, one cat, and a single mic. Total chaos? Maybe. Totally fun? Definitely.
 
We’re talking iconic fashion, sneaky book references, and all the innuendo you forgot was in this teen classic. It’s cozy, nostalgic, and full of love for one of the most quotable movies ever.

S1 Break: That Tracks

This week on Something Witchy, Laura and Skye recap the Sabrina the Teenage Witch TV movie that kicked off the franchise with floating teens, cursed kisses, and mondo style. Originally airing in 1996, the movie stars a teenage (for real!) Melissa Joan Hart as Sabrina Sawyer discovering her powers, throwing javelins, and navigating high school drama—while somehow still finding time for a shopping montage. We break down all the magical chaos, swap-out aunt personalities, Ryan Reynolds' early bro vibes, and debate whether Katy was just mean…or attempted murder mean. Plus: the worst party crash ever, Salem’s chaotic energy, and why juice tastes better in a goblet.
Did this movie cast a spell on us, or should it have stayed in the attic with the creepy dolls? Tune in to find out!
 

A History of Magic Part 2: It's Just Bad Latin

In part two of our deep dive into the history of witchcraft in media, Skye takes us from the eerie 1980s through the spellbinding 1990s, right up to Sabrina the Teenage Witch. Did Canada accidentally spark the Satanic Panic? Did the rise of teen-centric media bring witches back into style? We explore how pop culture, politics, and a healthy dose of teen angst shaped the witches we grew up with. Plus, we connect the dots between the witchy waves of the past and the magical media we see today.

A History of Magic Part 1: Time Has Lost Me

In this special episode, Skye leads us on a deep dive into the history of witchcraft in media leading up to the era of Sabrina the Teenage Witch. From the Good Witch of the North to the technicolor terror of Suspiria, we trace how witches have evolved on screen from the early 1900s through the 1970s. We talk tropes, transformations, and the cultural fears that shaped it all. Whether glamorous, goofy, or downright ghoulish—these witches walked so Sabrina could run (in chunky heels, of course).

Season 1 Recap: He's Giving Gemini Man Energy

We’ve officially wrapped up our rewatch of Sabrina the Teenage Witch Season 1, and it’s time to look back at all the magic, mayhem, and questionable fashion choices! This week, we’re joined by our special guest (and dear friend) Emily Ronquillo to break down our favorite moments, our not-so-favorite moments, and everything in between.
 
We also take a deep dive into the very confusing layout of the Spellman house, debate the logistics of 90s sitcom staircases, and answer some listener questions! Plus, we play a fun blind ranking game with the Season 1 characters—will your favorites end up where they belong, or will chaos reign?
 
Join us for one last trip through Season 1 before we dive into the world of Season 2!

1.24: There's No DEI in Troll Law

It’s the Sabrina the Teenage Witch Season 1 finale, and we’re diving into Troll Bride! When Sabrina accidentally agrees to marry a troll, only a prince (aka Harvey) can save her—but first, Laura and Skye somehow end up talking a lot about sports. Plus, it’s a special edition of Sword Facts With Skye, where we discuss the sword fight that determines Sabrina’s fate. Join us as we say goodbye to Jenny, Mr. Pool, and the first season of Sabrina!
