The first season follows Sabrina as she tries to keep the balance between being a teenager and possessing magical powers. Fearing that she will appear "weird" to her crush, Harvey Kinkle, Sabrina asks the witches' council to let her relive the day. After a rough day at school, Sabrina accidentally turns Libby Chessler, the most popular girl in school, into a pineapple. It is also revealed that Sabrina cannot see her mother, who is in Peru for two years, or else her mother will be transformed into a ball of wax. In the morning, her aunts reveal to her that she is a witch, but Sabrina does not believe them until she has a magical talk with her father from inside a book and her father reveals that he is a witch and Sabrina's mother is mortal. The pilot episode opens with Sabrina asleep on her 16th birthday, levitating above her bed. The show spanned seven years over seven seasons, though each season was not a year. While in the animated comic book series the story is set in the fictional town of Greendale, the television show is set in the fictional Boston suburb of Westbridge, Massachusetts. One episode also suggests that Jerry Springer is a witch when he hosts The Jerry Springer Show in the other realm. Hilda mentions to Sabrina in Episode 1 that "for two months a bunny ruled all of England," causing the witches' council to turn back time, as if to say that mortals are ignorant at best.

It also mentioned human history alongside witch history, such as the Salem witch hunt, which Zelda tells Sabrina was not a hunt for real witches. The show included contemporary pop cultural references, with Sabrina often saying that she liked Britney Spears and No Doubt. Sabrina's basic premise and "genial loopiness" earned the show comparisons to the 1960s television series Bewitched. Additionally, Hilda and Zelda must take care of Salem Saberhagen (voiced by Nick Bakay), a witch turned into a cat for trying to take over the world. Her witch aunts Hilda and Zelda Spellman (played by Caroline Rhea and Beth Broderick, respectively, until 2002) counsel her on the proper use of her magic and give her moral advice. As a novice witch, her spells often go awry. The show chronicles the adventures of Sabrina Spellman (played by Melissa Joan Hart), a girl who discovers on her 16th birthday that she is a witch.
