I want to like this but aside from my posted misgivings about how it treats Catholicism, there are just simply no likeable characters besides Sabrina and Harvey. Many compare this take to Buffy, but Buffy had likeable friends, a good mother, and of course Angel. Sabrina has boring friends, horrible Aunt Zelda and bumbling Aunt Hilda for parents, and strong ties to the very darkness\evil she says she will fight! Yes eventually as Buffy went on we learned the Slayers power came from darkness, but Buffy never attended black mass, a cannibal ritual (though Sabrina did not eat); all demanded by her witchcraft calling. AND as a close resident of Salem MA I can tell you witchcraft has zero to do with Satan. Witches do not believe in either God or Satan but worship the elements. They get their "powers" from them. ALSO there are no Warlocks. Witch is a non-gender category. Calling a witch a Warlock is an insult!!

Okay so now our heroine is a fully devoted servant of SATAN!! She is even happily waltzing through the dark arts school with the sisters she hated so much! If this were the end, well then the story has been told and Sabrina is another s**t for Satan.
BUT NO. There is already a season two in the works. How will that play out with a protagonist who is fully evil? A beloved daughter of the dark one? At his unholy beck and call??
There are a variety of script tricks that can be employed. First, she signed the book to help humans. She may regain or never really lost her human side due to that. Second, she was tricked into signing. The whole set up was, well, a setup. But in lore that does not really matter. All that matters is that in the end you say "yes". How you got there is irrelevant. BUT they show could use it nonetheless.
Sad ending all around.

It seems to be another reboot that's disappointing for many fans of the original.
I shudder to think what the "Buffy"' reboot will be like.
Side note:
I can't remember cannibalism, killing and worshiping Satan happening in the old comics.
Is that something in the new ones?

No. The comics never went that dark. It was cheesy fun. Her aunt's created her like a Frankenstein monster, but she's a teenage girl. They are good night for an even darker tone than the comics.
