Thank you very much. Its really awesome.

I prefer the old version. It was filled with comedy and I enjoyed those days of laughing until my stomach hurt. The new series is too dark for me and so I would have to pass.

I didn't thoroughly enjoy season 3 as I did with the previous seasons. But I love the show! Although it's darker than its previous version, I love its storyline!

I LOVE IT!
I love the direction it’s gone. It’s reminiscent of scream queens, dark but relatable.
Thank goodness Netflix uploads entire seasons because I literally finish Sabrina in two days.

I really love the new version since it is slightly more mature. I also think it deals with more of what it would mean to be a witch.

I did not watch the original series but the latest does not impress me to stay for the rest of the seasons. I just find its plot quite similar to other series I have watched like Supernatural so, I'll just stick to my old series.

In my opinion the new version is far superior, as you said it has all this new elements which I absolutely adore but it doesn't forget its comedic side completly, its the perfect combination.

I watched all the seasons and while it started off great, it ended terribly. It also contained an unnecessary amount of blasphemy tbh.

The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina would be an incredibly interesting story if the media would only stop pushing their nonsense agenda everywhere. It goes without saying that the whole show has been hijacked by some hate groups. The story has a lot of potential but sadly, that potential would never be actualized

I haven’t watched all of it yet but I love it. It is a very twisted version.

Dark Sabrina felt like a justified personification of the darkness in all of us, so I liked it

It has good moments throughout, but I felt the first season was the best.

I prefer the version. It is more interesting and it depicts the story in a good way. I really don't understand how they were comfortable with the old format.
