I just finished the show!!
Hiii okay so as the title states I justtt finished watching the last ep of the show! I was basically watching for the first time (a few years ago I tried to start it but literally only got half way through S1 and forgot abt it lol.) Anywayss I def have a lot of thoughts abt the show and wanted to finally post in here now that I’ve seen every episode! Okay this is gonna be so chaotic because a. I can talk forever and b. I have a terrible memory so I might miss some points I wanted to make but I’m just gonna go for it rn.
*Overall I liked the show, it was quirky, weird, and funny (literally me.) However its inconsistency frustrated me a lot. For example: the writing out of numerous characters. I understand shit happens I just felt like it kept happening and I was like huh is that a coincidence? Like Jenny I liked her a lot actually, but I took that loss. Then Mr. Pool ok whatever. Then Valerie! Ugh she was replacing Jenny what the heck. Libby I can deal with, at a certain point I could not stand hearing “freak” anymore like get a new insult damn. And what makes her a freak that she’s smart it’s not like she was sniffing feet or anything?? Those were the more notable ones in the beginning. Harvey not being in S5 PMO I am choosing to believe so many fans complained so they had to bring him back. Because yeah that was literally me.
*The season 6 ending really pissed me off. The LAST FIVE MIN of the LAST episode they fever dreamed us with Josh being like jk I’m taking that job in Prague. Like first of all okay good luck with that, that job offer was literally like three weeks prior to that LMAO. And second GOOD. Idk if this is a hot take but I didn’t like Josh. Not that he was a bad person or character or anything, but mainly because I hate the way his and Sabrina’s relationship started. I’ll get to Sab in a minute, but Josh at first shot her down then had the Gaul to get jealous of Harvey and started liking her when he knew he couldn’t date her?? And obviously the kiss when she was WITH Harvey!?? I cannot and will not condone cheating, that’s truly where Josh lost any hope from me. That was so unfair to Harvey then for him to have to watch Sabrina be with Josh?? Ew what the freak. But back to the point, then Harvey came in and was like “I love you but I know I can’t be with you so I’m moving to San Francisco.” THEN HE WAS IN THE NEXT EP LIKE NOTHING HAPPENED. It was like they were gas lighting us lmao…
*okay so touching on ^ I was also frustrated with Sabrina many times throughout the show because of how indecisive and one foot in one foot out she always seemed to be. Namely with who she liked/dated. Let me preface with this: hey I get it. I’m a serial crusher. I love having a crush on someone and I’m also indecisive. BUT she was always doing that and ultimately always ended up being with Harvey (the right choice obviously I knew that from the jump.) But it was frustrating because she just was going back and forth and I always felt like I knew she was always set on Harvey. Like in the earlier season with the guy from clueless (srry I would look up but I don’t want to lose this novel) look very nice character I loved him even, but me and Sabrina both knew it was Harvey. And even the thought of her alr being like omg wait who do I choose when she was basically already dating Harvey before this new guy even came in the picture like?? And then with Josh. She got a job and on her FIRST day was like omg I have a crush on my boss WHILE she was dating Harvey like girl BFFR. I don’t know much abt relationships but girl what!? It was A day and you had been with Harvey for a good while😭 Last notable one was A a ron. Look again, good looking nice guy. But she had been dating him for like two weeks and said I love you to him. THEN GOT ENGAGED TO HIM. Which pmo for many reasons. One being that she was with Josh for I think like a year and never was like oh let’s get married (I get it she was in college and whtvr) but still like the timing of her and Josh made much more sense than her and Aaron’s relationship timeline. Like she was serious with Josh yknow? Idk the proposal just came out of left playing field tbh.
*I am SOO freaking happy with the ending though. I’m ngl I was worried. But thankfully the alluding those last few episodes had in them did mean something. I was gonna be pissed if she ended up marrying Aaron because, say it with me now, at the end of the day it’s always gonna be Harvey. And she loved Aaron yes, but she definitely couldn’t commit to marrying him, she knew it wasn’t right, I knew, the soul stones knew. Guys the kiss was truly everything. Yes I cried.😭 And at that exact time too, like truly a perfect beautiful ending.
*now also Harvey breaking up with Sabrina made NO sense. Okay he found out she was a witch (weird that he specifically came to “witch” as the conclusion) but that’s how S4 ended. And ur like omg finally he knows she’s a witch yay! And then boom S5 “Harvey broke up with me because I’m a witch” okay WHAT. First of all that doesn’t sound like Harvey. Secondly literally why though… like okay she’s a witch why are you breaking up over that, like can we talk first?? Idk just felt to me like a quick little change the writers just came up with last min. But anyways I’m just glad they found their way back to each other after everything.
*the magic aspect was cool and pretty solid. I saw someone on here once say it wasn’t as good in the later seasons which I do have to agree on. Like first couple seasons had more like magic potions and “products” that had a specific purpose which was cool. Fave examples: Man Dough, the truth sprinkles, etc.
*I have to admit (I loveeddd both aunts don’t get me wrong) but I think Hilda was slightly more my fave. I liked Zelda, but at some point in the show she just became so like self centered and narcissistic. I don’t remember it being something prominent that bothered me early on, but I wanna say like S5 and S6 she was always talking abt how beautiful she was and like always just assumed the men were more interested in her than Hilda IDK guys I’d love to hear ur thoughts, just something I had to mention.
*At first I never thought I’d miss S1 intro… but as it went on I actually loved the guess what her costume was gonna be and looked forward to her bad pun lol. All other intros were not good imo lol. I just know the last one that stuck was my least fave. I always skipped it (but not for the last ep ofc, gotta get the full experience one last time.)
*yeah just so many storylines/plots that didn’t get followed through with or were just cut off and had an ending thrown together yknow. Like drema and the witches license, the family secret, etc. The conclusion I came to abt this was that since this was a “classic” show that I feel everyone has at least heard of, they prioritized celebrity cameos and musical guests at times to get ppl excited or retain interest yknow? Shoutout Britney Spears, Avril Lavigne, Nicole scherzingers first band pre pussycat dolls, six pence none the richer, and many more.
*overall I liked this show and went through a journey watching it. I laughed, I cried, I screamed, but I’m glad it’s over. Partly because I can now cross it off my watchlist and move on lol. But yeah overall it gets a slay from me, bonus slay for the ending being what it was😌
If you read all of this MWAH okay fan behavior😏 love youuuuu
