“When the magic fam comes together! @bethabroderick @thenaterichert,” Hart, 49, captioned the update. In the featured image, she posed at what looked like a restaurant with Richert, 47, on one side and Broderick, 67, smiling on the other.

Someone else wrote, “Stop, omg, I was just telling my partner how Harvey was the best TV bf ever. He just loved and accepted Sabrina for how weird she was. Ugh. My heart! Not to mention Zelda a baddie!!”

Meanwhile, yet another Instagram follower commented, “Omg 😍 Thank you for keeping the magic alive ❤️.”

In 2023, Hart confessed that a Sabrina reboot is not likely. “There’s too much red tape to get through,” she told E! News. “I mean, I think we would all have a lot of fun, but I don’t think that that necessarily makes for a good show just because we’re having a blast. I think that it’s really hard to reboot something, do it smart.”
She added, “I think that people have thought about it for too long and everyone has an idea of what they want it to be, but I don’t think it would ever make anyone happy.”
Sabrina the Teenage Witch aired for seven seasons from 1996 to 2003. In addition to the trio who recently enjoyed a meal together, the series starred Caroline Rhea as Sabrina’s other aunt, Hilda Spellman, and Nick Bakay as the voice of Salem the cat.
