“SABRINA, YOU’RE NOT YOURSELF.” THE BORROWINGS OF SABRINA SPELLMAN

Summary/Abstract: This article examines the contradiction between shallowness and silliness in the television series Chilling Adventures of Sabrina from the perspective of creative piracy. I argue that the show adopted the superficiality of the 1960s comics. Despite substantial hijacking of elements from series like Buffy the Vampire Slayer or a movie Something Wicked This Way Comes the writers failed to lift this new Sabrina to a better quality. The borrowed elements simply made it more chaotic.
