There's been rumours of a reboot/reunion for years, but it seems to be getting more likely than ever. With Melissa & Joey finished, it seems like Melissa has been a little more eager to make a return as Sabrina and she has now revealed that there has been serious discussions about bringing the show back! So what do we think?

Of course, as one of my favourite shows of all time, I'm nervous that it won't live up to the hype. However, nothing can ever take away from the best years of the show and the total perfection that was the series finale "Soulmates". And show pretty much reached rock bottom with the horrible Season 7 anyway, so it's not like a reboot could be any worse!

On Twitter, Jenna Leigh Green (Libby) has said she wants to come back. Plus, I tweeted saying I wanted the whole cast back - Caroline Rhea (Hilda) liked and retweeted it, so it looks like she's up for it, and Elisa Donovan (Morgan) actually tweeted me back saying "Morgan is IN" so it seems like a lot of the cast are more than up for reprising their roles!

If they could get everyone back (Melissa, Nate, Beth, Caroline and Nick, in particular) then I really think this could be something special! Sabrina the Teenage Witch is one of the most memorable shows of the 1990s and it's about time that we saw it back on our screens, even if it's just for one final outing!

Little people? Who decides they are so unimportant?

Read the new comic from the Archie Horror line. It's great! I'd watch this but it would have to be on a network that allows more mature content. Just read issue #6 with the origin of Salem. It was so good I went out and bought the trade paperback collecting issues #1 through 5.

No, it's much more mature, more like Buffy and Charmed or maybe Bitten. So, it would have to be on a network that allows mature themes. There is no relation to the TV series. Comic says on it "Rated Teen+ Violence & Mature content". Definitely NOT a kiddie book. Also looking forward to the new Archie series based off the newer, more realistic comics. Should be interesting to see if nothing else...

You might also like this month's Afterlife With Archie with its take on Josie and the Pussycats. That was a fun read as well...

I'd love to see a new once off series/film! By the time it was ready to be filmed, they could easily have a child who is about to turn 16.

Personally I don't think Nate Richert has aged badly at all. He has lost his hair but other than that he has aged completely normally.

A reboot would be awesome! Sabrina could mentor a new Teen Witch.

All you need is love!

Yeah like she did with Dreama, except with an actual story arc and a conclusion.

I had a (British celeb magazine) called Now and at the back of each issue is what happened to some famous person and Nate didn't look terrible he wasn't bald (ok they had little pictures he must've shaved), he just looked different to when he was younger. Anyway just imagine a 60 year old Nate.

I would prefer an adult Sabrina not teenage with new actors.
The cartoons just flop.

Nice, this should be good.
