* {{Jerkass}}: Mr. Evans, the land developer from "Home Sweet Home", deserves special mention here. He barges into the bakery, ''after'' inking an agreement with the landlord to buy it, and cheerfully announces that he is about to bulldoze their shop and turn it into a parking lot for the new mall he's building. There's not a hint of remorse or humanity in his declaration, nor does he have any interest whatsoever in the fact that he is about to leave a family out of business and homeless. In fact, he seems to be ''thrilled'' to be putting people he's never even met out on the streets.

The show is technically a ContinuityReboot of the series, re-telling Sabrina's origins of her coming into her powers and finding out the magical nature of the family, living a dual life of going to her human school by day and magical school by night. Though she also must do battle to enemies who would do harm to her family and threaten to expose her secret.
