harvey sabrina the teenage witch season 1

This is like making one decent paper airplane and deciding you could man a trip to Mars. Chick solves one magical Rubik’s Cube and she thinks she has what it takes to raise the dead. We have seen her in maybe four magic classes, not even? She enrolled at the Academy a week after Halloween. Usually girl heroes are reluctant to accept their destiny, sure that there must have been some kind of mistake - they see themselves as ordinary, even when all available evidence proves they’re anything but.

I will say I appreciate that this show centers a teen girl who is way too cocky for her own good. (Blood for blood, as far as they’re concerned, since Harvey and Tommy are the descendants of witch hunters.) Will Sabrina learn the obvious, valuable lesson here: that playing god - or, as the case may be, playing the Dark Lord - is for sociopaths and dum-dums? Or will she try to solve this problem by implementing the one thing, magic, that will almost certainly make it worse? Nothing good can come from magical meddling in the mortal world, as Sabrina is experiencing firsthand with the Weird Sisters using their powers to cause a mine collapse on the Kinkle boys.
