Something Witchy: A Sabrina the Teenage Witch Rewatch

2.12: The Friends You Make Out With on Holidays

It’s Christmas in Westbridge, and Sabrina is learning the hard way that the holiday season isn’t just about presents. In Season 2, Episode 12, Sabrina Claus, our favorite teenage witch comes down with a magical case of “ego-titis” and ends up face-to-face with none other than Santa himself—though he goes by Bob (played by Cheers’ John Ratzenberger). When Bob gets injured, Sabrina has to fill in and take on the role of delivering Christmas magic to the world, whether she’s ready or not.
We dig into Sabrina’s struggle to rediscover the true meaning of Christmas, the sheer chaos of the Spellman holiday décor, Salem’s endless holiday snark, and a very special musical cameo from Johnny Mathis. Plus, we talk about the wild clothing options, the episode’s surprising shout out to Utah, and how we still don't know where Sabrina and Harvey's relationship is.

2.11: It's a Moose Moose Situation

In Season 2 Episode 11 "Oh What a Tangled Spell She Weaves," Sabrina’s sloppy spellcasting spirals out of control—turning antique cabinets brand new, shrinking Salem into a kitten, and even sending her aunts straight into Merlin’s castle. While Valerie gets a magical efficiency boost at her new pizza job and Harvey undergoes a few unintended changes of his own, Sabrina learns the hard way that vague incantations have very real consequences. With no “undo” spells to save her, she has to clean up the chaos before her friends freeze, burn, or get stuck in medieval times forever.

2.10: Something Something: This Thing

It’s Friday the 13th, and Sabrina finally gets the green light to do what she’s been dying to try: tell her friends she’s a witch! In this episode, we talk through all the chaos that ensues when Valerie and Harvey get a full day in the know—complete with magic tickets, a trip to the Other Realm’s Mortal Day Festival, and celebrity cameos from Drew Carey and Mark Langston. We also dig into the risks of revealing your secrets, Salem’s reign of terror, and why Libby hasn't learned her lesson on accusing people of being witches. Plus, we marvel at magic corn dogs, posters in the school hallway, and a whole lot of bat breath. Will Sabrina regret spilling the beans? Let’s find out.

2.09: I'm So Excited For You To Die

When Sabrina’s “hillbilly” cousins show up from the Other Realm demanding her family’s spell book, things get locked down—literally. The Spellman house seals itself shut, trapping Sabrina, her aunts, and their unsuspecting mortal guests inside. As the feud escalates from awkward lunch to full-on magical warfare (think: pork rind rain, beer bellies, and tornadoes), Sabrina tries to play peacemaker, only to learn some hard truths about what it means to “go around your obstacles.” “Witch Trash” is packed with magic, mayhem, and surprisingly deep family drama—plus a lava lamp or two.

2.08 Bonus: I Do Not Accept Anything As Canon

In this bonus episode, we take a deep dive into the rest of the 1997 TGIF Time Travel lineup—Boy Meets World, You Wish, and Teen Angel—where Salem the Cat’s time ball sends each show hurtling into a different decade. From Cory proposing to Topanga during World War II, to a beatnik genie dragging his sitcom family into the 1950s, to a woman nearly falling in love with her dog-turned-human at a disco, we watched it all… together… and survived. We share our reactions to the drama, the questionable plotlines, and the absurd magic logic that somehow links all these shows back to Sabrina the Teenage Witch. Expect lots of 90s ads, wild continuity questions, Salem puppet appearances, and more than a few moments that had us yelling “wait… what?!”
 
Salem may have created chaos across space and time, but we were here for every bizarre minute of it.

2.08: You're Eating Wheat Babies!

In this episode of Something Witchy, we're spinning back in time to Season 2, Episode 8: “Inna Gadda Sabrina.” When Salem swallows a magical time ball, Sabrina wakes up in the 1960s — and so does the rest of Westbridge. As the town embraces peace, protests, and psychedelic vibes, Sabrina enjoys the freedom of the era… until she realizes just how limited a girl's future could be back then. From sit-ins in the cafeteria to college fairs that exclude women, this groovy episode tackles more than just retro fashion. We talk about historical context, gender politics, and of course, Salem's sardine-fueled dream sequence. Join us as we unpack the spellbinding chaos of this magical blast from the past.

2.07: Spooky Season Can Be All Year

In this week’s Something Witchy, we’re diving into Sabrina the Teenage Witch Season 2, Episode 7: “A River of Candy Corn Runs Through It." When Valerie impulsively volunteers Sabrina to throw a Halloween party, chaos—and talking furniture—ensues. With Salem threatening armchairs, termites in the basement, and a surprise appearance by 10,000 Maniacs, it’s far from the normal night Sabrina was hoping for. We break down weird furniture dynamics, high school boys that look like they're 35, and why this might be the weirdest house party in Westbridge history. Tune in for magic, mayhem, and a whole lot of candy corn! 

2.06: Consistency? In This Economy?

In this week’s episode of Something Witchy, we dive into Season 2, Episode 6: “Sabrina the Teenage Boy.” When Sabrina suspects Harvey might be into Valerie, she transforms into a boy to understand what makes guys tick—only to accidentally get herself a date with Libby. Meanwhile, Hilda turns herself into a man to scare off Mr. Kraft, and Salem has way too much fun coaching Sabrina through her double life. We unpack gender roles, Jack Spratski’s short-lived romance, and why the Slicery’s bathroom deserves a shout-out. Come for the magic, stay for the burp heard ‘round the world.

2.05: Martin Tall

This week on Something Witchy, Sabrina’s babysitting gig turns into a doll-sized disaster when cousin Amanda traps her in a toy box full of cursed humans—including a jaded ice cream man and a whiny dentist. Meanwhile, Hilda and Zelda try (and fail) to enjoy separate spa days, complete with face-removal treatments and passive-aggressive booking wars. Laura and Skye break down Salem in pantaloons, a ska-powered escape plan, and why the Quizmaster thinks this is the perfect time for a pop quiz.

2.04: No One Has the Answers

This week on Something Witchy, we’re talking Season 2, Episode 4: “Dante’s Inferno.” Harvey’s parents want him to date other girls, so Sabrina’s aunts decide it’s time she meets someone new—enter Dante, a witch boy with questionable judgment, a love of flashy magic, and absolutely no clue how stairs work. Things spiral fast during a chaotic double date that ends with someone literally turned into a bowling pin. Meanwhile, Hilda’s suffering from pun-itis (yes, really), which brings Davy Jones into the picture—not the pirate, as Skye originally thought, but the Monkee himself, complete with a surprise musical number. We also go off the rails discussing whether stairs exist in the Other Realm, the Roman poet Catullus, dictators, and some Monkees trivia. Come hang out with us as we break it all down.
