I'm about six episodes in...

I'm afraid this show might have peaked around episode one, maybe two. They make such a big deal about her HAVING to sign the book during the blood moon, but then it seems to not be such a big issue anymore. She can just do it whenever. There are many super creepy parts interwoven with goofy scenes of teen life that don't seem to mesh well. I'm not sure if the show was supposed to create some ambiguity about whether one should be worshipping the dark or the light, but immediate impression is that the dark is evil. How any of the characters in this show that have submitted their souls to the dark lord can be anything but evil seems weird and doesn't play well. Why Sabrina doesn't run screaming to the Catholic church down the road is beyond me.

So I finished watching the series. It reminded me of playing Dungeons and Dragons one weekend when I was 10 years old. I started out as a level one fighter. By the end of the weekend, I had taken over the entire universe and there was basically nothing left to do so it was just sort of over. Similarly, Sabrina has basically done everything, and I think this show was just sort of over. I never did get an understanding of why any of these people would worship Satan over God. I guess that wasn't the point of the show though.

That was one problem I had. I actually liked the characters and some events but the "world" and rules of it seemed to make no sense. no one had clear motivation really for what they did. Even the magic. Just seemed to be only there for when they needed a deus ex machine.

when they needed it but the plot needed to continue they were helpless, by the end of the episode when it was time to wrap up they conveniently used a spell.

had so much potential. shame

What do you mean, "finished"? Part 4 is yet to be released.

One can only hope. Netflix has itchy trigger fingers when it comes to show longevity.

Only worth watching because of how hot Kierna is.
