About the Show
In Sabrina's Secret Life, Sabrina Spellman is 14 years old. She goes to Greendale High School. Her old friends Chloe and Gem Stone are gone. Her Uncle Quigley, Pi, and the Spooky jar have also disappeared. Sabrina's new best friend is a girl named Maritza. Sabrina still likes her friend Harvey.
Even though Sabrina is older in this series, her magic is not as strong as before. In the earlier show, she could do magic with just a wave of her hand. Now, she needs a wand to cast spells. Many of the original voice actors did not return for this series.
