Finally Beth is on the show!!! Melissa please we need an ep with both Caroline and Beth! Their chemistry is the best!

[@KaiDecadence]

@austinanderson3379 I'd love if we could see Michelle Beaudoin (Jenny from season 1) as well

[@hayleywood462]

Yesss to Jenny!

[@castlemermaid]

I was obsessed with the background behind the windows the whole time.

[@chrisfinch8637]

It's heavily impossible for me to NOT grow nostalgic, by remembering "Sabrina the Teenage Witch", throughout all the years it's been on television. A real trip down memory lane, to remember Melissa Joan Hart, Beth Broderick, Caroline Rhea (a real Canadian sweetheart), and little Salem, too. Bless their hearts.

[@icedfancy1994]

During the pandemic my husband and I watched sabrina to go to sleep! Loved watching it from start to finish.

[@taryntickell4479]

Oh Aunt Zelly !!!❤ My heart is so full . You both are my childhood . So grateful to have three babies of my own at thirty six to watch over and over again ❤❤❤

[@princealex6826]

Melissa mentioning that she would watch shows like Bewitched on Nick At Nite made me so happy because Nick at Nite was how I discovered Sabrina only three years after the show had ended and I was basically an infant. :)

[@chrisfinch8637]

Nick @ Nite was what got me started by watching that show, The Brady Bunch, The Partridge Family, Diff'rent Strokes, Leave it to Beaver, and I Love Lucy, etc. Truly miss those vintage days, of that channel, as well as The Disney Channel.

[@bigjohn08865]

I have started binge watching Clarissa Explains It All on Paramount Plus (while I was alive in 1991 I didn't have cable so I didn't see it when it was first on). Melissa Joan Hart is definitely my SECOND favorite '90s Nickelodeon actress.

[@jaguar4120]

Finally I absolutely love Ant Zelda. ❤

[@AttnDefDis_]

I don't know if it's the audio, but Beth is sounding a lot like Geena Davis here. This is such a great reunion.

[@Pokemonlyfan]

LOVED the show growing up (and still do). It is so awesome that Aunt Zelda inspired so many to go into science.

[@aishuaish6779]

This hair cut suits you so well Melissa.

[@haleyanne86]

Loving Melissa's new haircut! So cute!!! ❤❤ Beth just looks great; she does not age! I grew up watching Sabrina, The Teenage Witch and I still am re-watching the show on Hulu! Such nostalgia!!!

[@Ben_levine]

Melissa was one of my first crushs. When I was 13 I cried a little when I found out she was married.

[@TheCatsofVanRaptor]

I have never been more excited to find a youtube channel in my entire life! I mean, I’m not a woman, but… still

[@TheCatsofVanRaptor]

Motion is motion. 😂😅

[@TheCatsofVanRaptor]

I’m so happy to hear that Salem got pet. Also I’m sorry to over comment. I got really excited to find the channel then I’m watching and responding as I watch. I’ll stop though. But thank you for this video. Really.

[@Allicia41]

STTW is my comfort sleep show, and I was really disappointed when Hulu said episodes were expiring.

[@jenniferwebb677]

I have just started rewatching too, with my bf. We luv watching them, takes me back to good memories.❤❤ Good to see her, she was one of my favorites next to Sabrina.

[@phillipleecurtis7204]

Omg "What’s it like to be Gods favourite?" made me actually laugh out loud. It's my new saying

[@eioclementi1355]

This show is in my dreams now ,many great memories thank you.

[@saintblades]

Can’t get enough of these STW moments! ❤ Just realised despite being great actors alot of your personalities are so similar to the Sabrina characters in real life, except Libby/Jenna lol. She’s lovely.

[@bmloveofficial]

I still watch Sabrina The Teenage Witch now; it never gets old and it always makes me feel so relaxed ☺️ ❤

[@Missmagazinebura]

The short hair from the first season of Sabrina

[@joelmoses565]

I love the magical duo of Sabrina the teenage witch show! Is my favorite childhood show!!! ❤ I love Melissa’s short hair is so beautiful 🤩❤❤! I love Ant Zelda and Sabrina they are my favorite characters of the show ❤. Is a Melissa and Beth reunion. Good work Melissa 👍

[@omaridaniels8427]

Looking back, I'm glad you mentioned this show when you were at Awesome-Con last year because I've been enjoying each new episode ever sonce.

[@Nitro1000]

The rash is because the skin is protected and highly moisturized with natural skin oils so when exposed to the cold, dry, air the skin gets irritated until it re-hardens like the rest of your epidermis

[@kylesmitsdorff]

Currently rewatching the show! Just starting season 3

[@YesThisIsChrissss44]

My favorite hair of Sabrina when she was in college she had that dark chocolate/ reddish hair omg my favorite

[@HeyKim0012]

My meemaw was a huge Sabrina fan as a young child and she passed her love for the show down to me.

[@themessyrainbow]

Pleaseeeeeee please do a.remake a new one with all of you in even libby. Valerie, Salam!! We'd love to see u all together again! Thankyou for giving me sarbina through my childhood. I am 33 now and watched sabrina this.morning on the TV as it still shows in the UK. Love London City :)

[@nicolashankaradasan5470]

Miss aunt Zelda aunt Hilda loved Sabrina the teenage witch

[@EyesOfTheInternet]

Would love to see even more '90s actors. Please try to get as guests Danielle Fishel, Walter Emanuel Jones, Amy Jo Johnson, Rob Paulson, and Paul Zaloom.

[@azukavolkova]

the fireman addicted to milk was zelda's man dough, and she ends fighting with hilda for him because she added dispair to the recipe by mistake on hers.

[@amytoon1815]

I enjoyed the girls on Sabrina. Very funny. When Melissa was on Melissa and Joey still great chemistry. What happened to comedy. More drama and scary crap. Bring back the good stuff please

[@nandixon1247]

Beth, I love the color of your lipstick. You look beautiful. I loved the stories.

[@beckyp5376]

& now my 2 yr old is saying "peace out!!" 😂😂

[@junecoen9409]

[@kimshxc]

aunt zelda looks so goood wowowowowow

[@StarryDreamer28]

shows back then always had the best guest stars! especially the "smaller" tv shows

[@djb1317]

i grew up watching sabrina and during the pandemic i went to sleep watching it

[@sportsmedia25]

I always had a crush on Beth Broderick

[@sherrystrawn7628]

Friends..ELR, and Sabrina the Teenage Witch. Those are my three comfort shows to fall asleep to. The man dough episode.. Caroline Rhea's man was Biff from Back to the Future. 😂😂😂😂

[@sandiego2380]

ELR, I assume that's Everybody loves Raymond?.... wait a minute, you call that show 'comforting to fall asleep to'? How is that possible? When that show literally portraits a toxic family, toxic characters. True, funny show, but comforting? Sabrina is comforting, because the characters related to one another actually don't fight every single episode like they literally wish to kill each other.

[@richardhdent]

Zelda played a good scientist.

[@pipermaru2006]

Melissa! I would have preferred hearing Beth talk more...Too chatty when excited! lol. Still an amazing episode.

[@TaylorAmelia]

I’m 35 and I still love Sabrina lol

[@A-C_Creations]

Great video! I love sudoku puzzles as well.

[@sweeney60]

My favorite guest star was Barbara Eden!

[@alexiaicenhower8314]

I saw Caroline at a doctors gala recently. And she was wearing this beautiful, yet very loud colored dress. Made me feel better since I was the only person to do my hair and make up like from the 70s and felt so alone I had a loud thing going on in a sea of boring Scottsdale Doctors wives (everyone else looked like they were going to the prom boring white white black gowns we’ve all seen since late 90’s formal wear) Then There was aunt Hilda with this huge floral pink/peach dress 😂loved it

[@marybree6719]

I think you should ask Christy C Romano to be in one of your Holiday movies, I know she'd love that!

[@bmloveofficial]

If we’re doing pop culture; I’d love to see singers that influenced you on here; 90s musicians that were part of the culture that people have come to love from those times ❤️

[@marybree6719]

Would you want to direct a version of The Spellman sisters? do a before sabrina thing . . . that'd be fun! And can't get over how MUCH KallMeKris looks like Beth - you should ask her to be on there - maybe get fan questions for upcoming pods too?

[@kmyoung180]

I just turned 38 and I love Woodoku, Disney Emoji Blitz and JigsawScapes!! Still hate beets though... 32:33

[@derekclancy6916]

Melissa, is there a possibility that you could have Michelle Bueduoin (sp?) on your podcast? She played Jenny in season 1 and was Sabrina's best friend. What about Lindsay Sloane who played Valerie and Martin Mull who played Mr. Kraft? I loved the series finale of Sabrina The Teenage Witch, but they should have made it a two parter so we could maybe see the return of Jenny, Valerie, Quizmaster and had Aunt Zelda in human form.

[@KaiDecadence]

Definitely second Michelle Beaudoin and Lindsay Sloane since they're the two we really haven't seen at all when it has come to these reunion type interviews.

[@Bestievlogs8]

Can Sabrina teenage witch cast do a comic con meet and greet in Ireland as i grew watching the show love to meet ye❤

You all look beautiful I love you all so very much.

[@markalexander3659]

I love when Americans do the peace-sign backwards (so like the two fingers with their palm facing themselves) as in Europe, doing is that way is the same as giving the finger. So you're mouth is saying "peace", but your hand is saying "fuck off"

[@MrThomas201]

I really love watching Sabrina the Teenage Witch. Now my first question is about the pushups. How many pushups did Salem do on Sabrina the Teenage Witch? Second question, this is for Beth. How did it feel when you were dating Sabrina's professor on Sabrina the Teenage Witch? Now the last thing I want to say, not ask, but say. Melissa, you do have a great singing voice, especially on Sabrina the musical. One more thing I got to say, before I leave and go away. Now I know that this will be kind of a switch, but I think there should be a Harvey and Sabrina, and their teenage Witch!

[@joshfig4428]

I don't know if this question was already answered but how come aunt vesta was only in one episode ???

[@samjean3688]

Keri Russell

[@d2dag5]

I’d like to see Jenny! I felt like her character was the best friend Sabrina had ❤

[@sandiego2380]

it always baffles me how 'average' the room looks when a celebrity makes an online interview in their bedroom, living room etc, with all their money, you'd expect something 'more expensive' looking, that is if that is really their home or just a place they chose, as to not reveal their real place.

[@2010Actor1]

Can you talk about the days your not working. After sabrina did work stop. How do you feel about it ? I guess you don't worry about money too much. Do you think you won't work again or do you try to keep busy ? Would love to know the days as an actor like this.

This would be great but unfortunately you ruined you career by doing that God's not dead film. You have gone from born again to support for magic, which we all know goes against Christian teachings. This is just sad.
