Netflix Comes Under Fire For Underaged Orgy Seen In ‘Sabrina’ Reboot

I watched “Sabrina, the Teenage Witch,” as a kid, so I was kind of curious to see what Netflix would do with their Sabrina reboot.

It’s a freaking MESS.

While I haven’t watched any of it myself, I’ve heard from a few of our readers that the CONSTANT “Satanic” references and darkness of the show is WORLDS different than the once family-friendly “Sabrina” of my childhood.

The show, and Netflix, is coming under fire yet again.

This time, for the depiction of a teen orgy.

According to Fox News:

The popular Netflix series “Chilling Adventures of Sabrina” is marketed to young teenage girls, tied to a family friendly comic franchise and billed as a modern reboot of the harmless “Sabrina, the Teenage Witch,” so when viewers were bombarded with a steamy orgy scene featuring underage characters, some parents and critics were shocked.

I mean… why? Just WHY?!

The orgy scene – set to Fiona Apple’s “Criminal” – appears in the seventh episode of the series and features half-a-dozen scantily clad teens in Sabrina’s house. When the 16-year-old namesake character is hesitant to join in, she’s mocked for “killing the mood” and told to either “get in, or get out.”

Awesome message, Netflix! Teens should join in on sexual acts that make them uncomfortable instead of “killing the mood.”

Viewers are all kinds of skeeved out:

Hey, I’ve got a question? Who is the target audience for the @netflix show, ‘The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina?” The reason I ask is because shows about teenagers typically attract, you know, children & teenagers. The reason I bring it up is because of the, you know, orgy scene. pic.twitter.com/CfxC94TpRg

Riiiight.

OK, this new Sabrina show is not for children. I repeat NOT FOR CHILDREN. Unless they’re the kind of children who are into swearing, eating human meat, and orgies.

they’ve made dumb excuses to get her to take her clothes off like 3 times now in the first 3 episodes alone.

the sexualization of teens is so bad and completely normalized like does no one else feel gross about how many teen shows and characters have sex scenes?? Often kind of explicit?? Like Sabrina is supposed to be newly 16 and yet she’s offered into an orgy and is “disrobed” alot
