History WesternAnimation / SabrinaTheAnimatedSeries

After Creator/DiCEntertainment split up from Disney, they produced a MadeForTVMovie titled ''Sabrina: Friends Forever'', which served as the pilot to a new syndicated series titled ''Sabrina's Secret Life'', which was basically a [[SequelSeries follow-up]] to the first series. Many of the original characters from the first series were PutOnABus or [[BrotherChuck brother chucked]] and, since by this point [=DiC=] was no longer a Disney subsidiary, features none of the original voice actors either. In this version, Sabrina now going to high school (further contradicting the main series, but only two years younger) is now at the age where she can attend magic school as well. She quickly finds a new rival in Cassandra, who's a full witch--and will let Sabrina know it every chance she gets. Of course, Sabrina is more than willing to prove that being full blooded doesn't mean you're automatically better.

''Sabrina: The Animated Series'' is a Belgian-American-Canadian indie cartoon. Being produced by Creator/DiCEntertainment during the time it was co-owned by Creator/{{Disney}} and having run on Creator/{{ABC}}'s ''[[Creator/OneSaturdayMorningAndABCKids]]'' One Saturday Morning and its weekday afternoon counterpart ''One Too'' on Creator/{{UPN}}, it was oddly treated like it was as much of a show by Disney as the company's actual productions. The reruns on Creator/ToonDisney placed it in the same primetime block as Disney cartoons like ''WesternAnimation/HouseOfMouse'' and ''WesternAnimation/AladdinTheSeries'', even though it was pretty obvious that this was not an actual Disney cartoon. In its original run, the show lasted from September, 1999 to February, 2000 for a total of 65 episodes.

Ironically, reruns of ''Sabrina's Secret Life'' briefly popped up on Creator/ToonDisney for a while. After that, they were aired for a while on Saturday mornings on Creator/{{CBS}}'s ''Creator/CookieJar TV'' block in 2010, with ''Sabrina's Secret Life'' joining it on September 18. On February 5, they were replaced by ''WesternAnimation/{{Trollz}}'' and ''WesternAnimation/{{Horseland}}''.

** Uncle Quigley, although he [[{{AssholeVictim}} more than has it coming]] thanks to his strict, overbearing attitude towards the other Spellmans a lot of the time.

** Harvey shouts out one in "What Becomes of the Broken Hearted?" during a flashback after the plug of the arcade game he was playing gets accidentally pulled out by a janitor. He then [[{{Fainting}} faints]] afterwards.

* AmbiguouslyGay: The spider in ''Harvzilla''.

* BadFuture: One that is caused by stealing, oddly enough.

* BigEater:
** Salem.
** And Harvey if the episode calls for it.

* {{By the Hair}}: Gem pulls Pi's (rather long) hair in "Straight Outta Paris" to prove (somehow) that he was a 'Cyborg From The Future!' Needless to say, he was NOT impressed.

* CatsAreMagic: Salem and [[OneShotCharacter Scheherazade]].
* CatsAreSnarkers: Salem.
* ChristmasEpisode "[[YetAnotherChristmasCarol Witchmas Carole]]"

* TheDitz: Harvey, to an extent. Pi much more so.

** {{The Leader}} - Sabrina. It's her show after all.
** {{The Lancer}} - Chloe. She's slightly more level headed than Sabrina at times and often provides her conscience (the Halloween episode has a good example).
** {{The Smart Guy}} - Pi. He's a genius. He's also physically weak (Harvey often protects him as in "Paranormal Pi")
** {{The Big Guy}} - Harvey. The only masculine boy in the group. The others are girls and Pi is a feminine boy. He's also not very smart at times.
** {{The Chick}} - Gem. She's much girlier than Sabrina and Chloe and far more hung up on trends and beauty.
* ForHalloweenIAmGoingAsMyself: Sabrina wore a witch costume.

* HalloweenEpisode: "Nothin' Says Lovin' Like Somethin' from a Coven"

* ItWasAllJustADream: see CrowdSong.

* {{Meganekko}}: Zelda.
* MiniDressOfPower: Aunt Hilda wears one.

* MuggleBestFriend: Chloe.

* NakedPeopleAreFunny: At the end of "Has Anyone Seen My Quigley?"

* NobleDemon: As noted, Alvin from "Planet of the Dogs".

* PoorCommunicationKills

* ScaledUp: During "Harvzilla", Harney overuse the Sabrina's "lucky cologne" that turned him into a giant dragon.
* ScrewPolitenessImASenior: Uncle Zamboni in "Paranormal Pi".

* WhamLine: Sabrina saying "swim like a fish" in "Fish Schtick".

* BrokenAesop: The moral of "Moldy Oldie" is basically that it's wrong to deny an elderly person a place in society just because they have so many years of experience, never mind the fact that said elderly person may be senile and/or a danger to himself or others.

* CoolAndUnusualPunishment: Hilda and Zelda teenage forms are the result for "abusing magic" in the past (which is kinda weird, Hilda one can understand but Zelda?). Apparently being "young and beautiful" as Zelda quips is a dishonor in the witches world.

* AmbiguoslyGay: The spider in ''Harvzilla''.

* It'sACostumePartyISwear: A variant. In the episode "Stone Broke", Gem tells Sabrina that the charity ball has a Western theme. Cue the humiliation when she, the only poor girl at the ball, shows up dressed as a cowgirl in front of several incredibly wealthy people, as well as her [[ChildhoodFriendsRomance crush]], Harvey.

* SixtyFiveEpisodeCartoon: The series lasted one season of 65 episodes from 1999 to 2000 (like a number of Saturday morning cartoons) but got a spin-off, Sabrina's Secret Life, in 2003, with twenty-something episodes.

---> '''Sabrina''': Salem, do something!

* AdaptationalHeroism: Enchantra, who was a strict and rude woman has become a kknd hearted, friendly sage, although she is still strict.

* BadassAdorable: Sabrina can be like this a few times.

** Sabrina in one episode... after chowing down a ''lot'' of garlic in "The Bat Pack".
** Salem in another episode.

* DeadpanSnarker: Salem, mostly, but everyone else gets some in.

* LikeBrotherAndSister: Sabrina and Salem what with their constant bickering and Salem acting as a. {{Big brother mentor}} to Sabrina especially in secret life

* EnfanteTerrible: The episode ''Field Trippin''' tries to [[{{MadeOutToBeAJerkAss}} make the Terror Twins out to be this]] but it kind of doesn't work; their actions come across more as wanting to have fun and run around than intentionally cause any destruction, and the worst they do is shoot Sabrina and Harvey in the face with water guns and [[{{RuleOfFunny}} knock over two huge adults]] in their energetic dash around the museum. It kind of makes Sabrina and Harvey's reactions towards them come off as DisproportionateRetribution.

* SixtyFiveEpisodeCartoon: 65 episodes over five seasons.

* GettingCrapPastTheRadar: The show is only really guilty by way of facial expressions that can easily misconstrued when taken out of context.

* DoesNotLikeShoes: The Wise Warlock.
