Hart continued, “Tons of talented guest stars, musical acts and magic tv tricks over the years. Full of friendships and crazy memories, it was an incredible ride to be sure! Thanks for the love and support to help us do what we love to do, make people smile!! Happy #SabrinatheTeenageWitch Day!”

In a recent interview withElle, co-creator and season 1 showrunner Nell Scovell said she “wanted to make a show that I would’ve liked to watch when I was a young a girl.”
“And the revolutionary idea ofSabrinais she’s a good kid,” Scovell continued. “She doesn’t want to be a cheerleader [or] popular. She, like me, wanted to be good in school, and a good person.”

Addressing the show’s overall impact, Scovell said, “It was just running all the old sitcom tropes through this additional twist of magic. She doesn’t have a date for the prom, so her aunts make one out of man-dough, as one does.”
