Preceded by | Sabrina: Friends Forever |
Sabrina's Secret Life is an American animated television series based on the Archie Comics character Sabrina, the Teenage Witch produced by DiC Entertainment in partnership with Sony Pictures Television. It originally aired in syndication in 2003 as a spin-off of Sabrina: Friends Forever, Sabrina, the Animated Series and Sabrina, the Teenage Witch. The plots for each episode feature educational elements to meet the FCC's federal E/I requirements.
In the series, Sabrina is a fourteen-year-old teenager (older than in Sabrina: The Animated Series, but still younger than usually portrayed in the comics) attending Greendale High School. Chloe has moved away, and Gem Stone attends a private school far away from Greendale. Sabrina's new best friend is a girl named Maritza; additionally, Sabrina still has a crush on her friend Harvey.
Salem, Hilda, and Zelda, who also appear in this series (however, for unknown reasons, Uncle Quigley doesn't appear in this series), still work hard to train Sabrina so she can learn how to use her magic well. They also continue to help her get out of tough scrapes when her spells backfire.
Although Sabrina is half-mortal (as was the case in the previous animated series and the original comic), she is not the only one at her school who is a witch in this series—her nemesis in this series, Cassandra, also attends Sabrina's high school, and is a full witch and also the niece of Enchantra. Both Sabrina and Cassandra, in addition to their regular courses, also attend courses on witchcraft at a secret witches' academy hidden within the school.
The show also aired on CBS as part of KOL Secret Slumber Party on CBS, from September 16, 2006 - September 8, 2007, then as part of KEWLopolis, from September 15, 2007, and sees through September 12, 2009. The show was returned to new block called Cookie Jar TV, from September 18, 2010 - January 29, 2011, when it was replaced by Trollz and Horseland.
Reruns of Sabrina's Secret Life aired on Toon Disney and previously in syndication on the DIC Kids Network.
In Germany, Sabrina's Secret Life is simply a third season of Sabrina, the Animated Series, both under the title Simsalabim Sabrina.[1][2]

Although Sabrina's Secret Life is set during her high school years, Sabrina's magic is portrayed as weaker than it was in Sabrina, the Animated Series. Unlike the previous series where Sabrina made magic with a wave of her hand and an incantation, here she uses a wand to cast spells. Most of the original voice cast did not return for this series.
