Default The CW to make Riverdale Spin-off based on Sabrina the Teenage Witch

https://twitter.com/EW/status/910561775766163457

Quote:
Called: The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina

"Reimagines the origin and adventures of Sabrina the Teenage Witch as a dark coming-of-age story that traffics in horror, the occult, and — of course — witchcraft. Tonally in the vein of Rosemary’s Baby and The Exorcist, this adaptation finds Sabrina wrestling to reconcile her dual nature — half-witch, half-mortal — while standing against the evil forces that threaten her, her family and the daylight world humans inhabit."

The original series was meant to be a fun, light comedy. This version sounds horrible.

I saw a few episodes of Riverdale, they made a Beverly Hills 90210 clone, and gave characters names from the Archie comics. None of the characters were even remotely like the originals.
So if that is any indication of what Sabrina will be like. Pass.

Shame on them. This show sounds disgusting enough, the good name of Sabrina's show should not be dragged into it.

Some people don't realize that Sabrina was part of the Archie series.

Melissa Joan Hart's sitcom has nothing to do w/ the new Riverdale version, and there were other adaptations of Sabrina as well.

It may have been part of Archie but I would bet that Melissa's version is the most well known. The article says this show is in the vein of Rosemary's Baby and The Exorcist, it should have been based on those two then and leave Sabrina alone.

Either way, it'll probably flop.

Though they did do a comic book series that was in the horror genre based on the Archie comics: Afterlife With Archie, and her own solo horror comic series. So it's not like the new TV show is anything new.
I did enjoy Afterlife With Archie. I'm just not a fan of how the series Riverdale is done.

This has made me just want to rewatch the Melissa Joan Hart version. The only version as far as I'm concerned.

I am not into the "dark reboot of Sabrina the Teenage Witch" that doesn't even feature Salem the Cat
