| Chilling Adventures of Sabrina Friday, Oct. 26 | Netflix For a teenage half-human witch, Sabrina Spellman has quite the pedigree: as an Archie comic, a TV cartoon and sitcom, and now a live-action supernatural thriller. This stylish, if still somewhat juvenile, reboot stars Mad Men's endearingly spunky Kiernan Shipka in the title role, balancing her desire to be normal with her newfound spellbinding gifts.

As the show relocates (mostly) to New York for the sixth season, the unhappy widower is fished out of the East River by a Staten Island cop. Ray tries to lay low, but Sam Winslow (Susan Sarandon) has other ideas, and before long, he's fixing messes for a New York City mayoral candidate (Lola Glaudini).
