Started watching Chilling Adventures of Sabrina, but can't get into it for many reasons. For one, I dislike the casual references to "killing." In one episode, Sabrina tells Ambrose, "I don't want you to hurt him (the principal) too bad." Two seconds later when she and Ambrose are casting a spell on the principal, Ambrose says, "Are you sure you don't want me to kill him? 'Cause I can."
Then in another scene/episode, Auntie Zee "kills" the other Auntie because "she was getting on my nerves." Of course, the Auntie comes back to life soon after... I also realize this is a dark show and that it's fiction, but in the murderous culture of today, I just don't like the casual references to killing anymore. This is a TEEN show and it just didn't sit well with me. Perhaps I'm getting old. There seems to be some man bashing going on too. As far as structure and theme... Not sure. My 2 cents.
