'''''Sabrina, the Animated Series''''' (often punctuated '''''Sabrina: The Animated Series''''', even in official promotional material) is an [[United States|American]] [[animated television series]] based on the [[Archie Comics]] character [[Sabrina, the Teenage Witch]]. It was produced by [[DiC Entertainment]], which was owned by [[Disney]] at the time. The cartoon series could also be considered a spin-off of the [[Sabrina, the Teenage Witch (TV series)|popular live action series]] that ran on [[American Broadcasting Company|ABC]] (also owned by Disney). Later, a television/direct-to-video movie ''[[Sabrina: Friends Forever]]'' and a spin-off series ''[[Sabrina's Secret Life]]'' were produced by DiC, this time without the ownership of Disney.
A '''power take-off''' ('''PTO''') is a [[rotating spline|spline]]d [[driveshaft]], usually on a [[tractor]] or that can be used to provide power to an attachment or separate machine. It is designed to be easily connected and disconnected. The power take-off allows implements to draw energy from the tractor's engine.


== Premise ==
Semi-permanently mounted power take-offs can also be found on industrial and marine engines. These applications typically use a [[Cardan shaft]] and [[bolted joint]] to transmit power to a secondary implement or accessory. In the case of a marine application, such shafts may be used to power fire pumps.
Most episodes centered on the typical problems of middle school, along with those that stemmed from Sabrina's inexperience with or misuse of [[witchcraft]]. Sabrina and best friend Chloe would often use magic (often from the "Spooky Jar" a [[cookie jar]] containing a genie-like being&mdash;in the family's kitchen) for all sorts of perceived emergencies, ranging from trying to fit into skinny new clothes to turning Sabrina's boyfriend Harvey into a [[superhero]]. By the end of each episode, the magic would backfire. Sabrina would learn that using magic usually wasn't the solution to her day-to-day problems.


==Safety==
== Production ==
The series debuted in [[1999]]. The [[Archie Comics]] star had already graced the Saturday morning airwaves in the 1970s (courtesy of [[Filmation]]), but the popularity of the live-action ''[[Sabrina, the Teenage Witch (TV series)]]'' sitcom in the 1990s formed part of the basis for this spin-off series. Unlike previous versions, Sabrina in this series was depicted as a 12-year-old attending [[middle school]]. As in the original comic series, Sabrina lives with her two aunts, [[Hilda and Zelda Spellman]], and [[Salem Saberhagen]], Sabrina's sarcastic cat, all of whom advise Sabrina on the use of her powers (thereby contradicting the live-action show's premise of not having those powers prior to her sixteenth birthday; thus this series is essentially a "retelling" of the story, similar in concept to [[The New Archies]], a previous Archie Comics-based DiC production).
[[Image:TractorPTOshaftMay04.jpg|right|thumb|A shaft attached to the PTO.]]


[[Savage Steve Holland]] (whose previous credits include producing ''[[Eek! The Cat]]'') was the executive producer of ''Sabrina, the Animated Series''. As such, the series reflected some of the irreverent style of humor seen on ''[[Eek! The Cat]]''. Celebrity voice cameos in this series included [[Mr. T]] and [["Weird Al" Yankovic]].
The PTO and its associated shafts and [[universal joint]]s are a common cause of [[incident]]s and [[injury]] in [[farming]] and industry. According to the [[National Safety Council]], 6 percent of tractor related fatalities in 1997 in the [[USA]] involved the PTO. When a piece of clothing, which can be as small as a single thread, touches a spinning part it can be pulled around the part. The clothing and the person wearing it are pulled into the shaft often resulting in loss of limb or death. Some implements do use plastic guards to try to keep a person from becoming entangled in a PTO shaft, but even with guards people need to exercise caution around PTO shafts when they are plugged into a tractor or truck . In some countries it is illegal to operate a PTO without the shaft guard correctly fastened.<ref>

[[Melissa Joan Hart]], who starred in the live-action sitcom, acted as producer of this series, but her younger sister, [[Emily Hart]], voiced Sabrina. Melissa instead voiced Sabrina's two aunts, Hilda and Zelda. Salem is voiced by [[Nick Bakay]], who also voiced Salem in the live-action series.

The series ran on [[UPN]] and in syndication (on ''[[Disney's One Too]]'' weekday afternoon block) and on [[American Broadcasting Company|ABC]] (on ''[[Disney's One Saturday Morning]]'' block) for one season with 65 episodes produced. In October [[2002]], a made-for-television movie based on the series was produced for cable channel [[Nickelodeon (TV channel)]]. This was soon followed by a follow-up animated series, ''Sabrina's Secret Life''. The original series at that time began airing on cable channels [[Disney Channel]] and [[Toon Disney]], but recently has reverted once again to airing in syndication. During the 2006-2007 television season, the series returned as part of [[CBS]]'s new ''KOL Secret Slumber Party on CBS'' and was briefly part of the ''[[KEWLopolis]]'' cartoon lineup.
==Commercial Vehicle PTOs==
Truck transmissions have one or more locations which allow for a PTO to be mounted. The PTO must be purchased separately and care is required to match the physical interface of the transmission with a compatible PTO. PTO suppliers will usually require details of the make, model and even serial number of the transmission. Care is also needed to ensure that the physical space around the transmission allows for installation of the PTO. The PTO is engaged/disengaged using the main transmission clutch and a remote control mechanism which operates on the PTO itself. Typically an air valve is use to engage the PTO, but a mechanical linkage, electric or hydraulic mechanism are also options.


In [[Germany]], ''[[Sabrina's Secret Life]]'' is simply a third season of ''Sabrina, the Animated Series'', both under the title ''Simsalabim Sabrina''. <ref> [http://www.zeichentrickserien.de/sabrina.htm Simsalabim Sabrina]. ''[http://www.zeichentrickserien.de Zeichentrickserien.de]. Retrieved on June 2, 2008. </ref> <ref> [http://www.fernsehserien.de/index.php?serie=4336&seite=12 Simsalabim Sabrina]. ''[http://www.fernsehserien.de/Fernsehserien.de]. Retrieved on June 2, 2008. </ref>
Units will be rated according to the continuous and intermittent torque that can be applied through them and different models will offer different "PTO shaft rotation to engine RPM" ratios.


==DVD Release==
In the majority of cases the PTO will connect directly to a hydraulic pump. This allows for transmission of mechanical force through the hydraulic fluid system to any location around the vehicle where a hydraulic motor will convert it back into rotary or linear mechanical force. Typical applications include:
''The Very Best of Sabrina: the Animated Series'' by [[Shout! Factory]] contains twelve episodes of the cartoon.[[http://www.shoutfactorystore.com/prod.aspx?pfid=39]]
* Running a water pump on a fire engine or water truck
It is currently unknown if the entire series will be released on DVD.
* Powering a blower system used to move dry materials such as cement
* Raising and lowering a dump truck bed
* Operating the mechanical arm on a bucket truck used by electrical maintenance personnel or Cable TV maintenance crews
* Operating a winch on a tow truck
* Operating the compactor on a garbage truck


This show has also been released earlier on several other DVDs, including ''Witch in Training'', ''Bat Attack'', and the holiday special ''A Witchmas Carol'' by [[Animation Station]].
It is also possible but less common to connect something other than a hydraulic pump directly to the PTO.<ref>{{Citation

==Merchandise==
you all suck dick
An 11 inch Sabrina fashion doll was released by the company Bambola [[http://www.tons-of-toys.com/english_item_details.php?codice=1570]]. Several other small plastic toys, including a few figurines and a [[Polly Pocket]]-esque Sabrina doll were sold in stores while the series was in production. [[http://www.amazon.com/dp/B000PF2BF2]]

==Comic Book==
While ''Sabrina, the Animated Series'' was airing, [[Archie Comics]] printed a comic spin-off for the show. The first issue was dated January 2000 (meaning it was on-sale in late 1999), and it lasted for 37 issues. <br/> In order to tie the plot in with their [[Sabrina, the Teenage Witch|current ''Sabrina'' series]], it was explained in the first issue that Repulsa the Goblin queen had sent Sabrina back in time to relive her pre-teen years, so that she would be out of the way while Repulsa attempted to conquer Enchantra's realm. In issue 38, the Repulsa plot was resolved, and the comic book switched to chronicling the teenage Sabrina.

== Characters ==
* '''Sabrina Spellman'''

Voiced by [[Emily Hart]], has a secret: she's a half witch/mortal. She doesn’t become magically empowered until she's sixteen, but it’s possible to borrow spells from her aunts Hilda and Zelda, which she often does. She finds her meddling turns the situation from bad to worse. Her friend '''Chloe''' is aware of Sabrina's magic but '''Harvey Kinkle''', another friend and her romantic interest, isn't.

* '''Harvey Dwight Kinkle'''

Voiced by [[Bill Switzer]], has a cute and sweet personality, and, of course, is too shy to admit to '''Sabrina''' as anything more than his best pal. He is unaware Sabrina is a witch though often sees the results of the magic himself.

* '''Hilda and Zelda'''

Voiced by [[Melissa Joan Hart]], while Hilda suggests they bend the rules a little and magic to get ahead, Zelda’s determined to say no right up until the moment she gives up. Hilda is more carefree and reckless than her cautious sister Zelda but although they do butt heads they love each other. In this series and [[Sabrina's Secret Life]], Hilda and Zelda both have the appearance of teenagers, as this was the punishment they received from Enchantra for "abusing magic" in the past.

* '''Salem'''

Voiced by [[Nick Bakay]], Sabrina's cat (and probably '''familiar''') with a big attitude. Together they're a potent combination. Salem knows the right buttons to push to talk Sabrina into just about anything and he does it guiltlessly - until he's caught.

* '''Gemini "Gem" Stone'''

Voiced by [[Chantal Strand]], is Sabrina's chief rival. She is very wealthy and sees Sabrina as her main competition for '''Harvey''''s affection. Stone is this series version of Libby Chessler from the live action series.

* '''Uncle Quigley'''

Voiced by [[Jay Brazeau]], is an original character created for this series, Sabrina's maternal great-uncle and the household's adult guardian.

* '''Chloe Flan'''

Voiced by [[Cree Summer]], is Sabrina's best friend and is another mortal that knows that Sabrina is a witch-in-training.

Sabrina, the Animated Series (often punctuated Sabrina: The Animated Series, even in official promotional material) is an American animated television series based on the Archie Comics character Sabrina, the Teenage Witch. It was produced by DiC Entertainment, which was owned by Disney at the time. The cartoon series could also be considered a spin-off of the popular live action series that ran on ABC (also owned by Disney). Later, a television/direct-to-video movie Sabrina: Friends Forever and a spin-off series Sabrina's Secret Life were produced by DiC, this time without the ownership of Disney.

Premise

Most episodes centered on the typical problems of middle school, along with those that stemmed from Sabrina's inexperience with or misuse of witchcraft. Sabrina and best friend Chloe would often use magic (often from the "Spooky Jar" a cookie jar containing a genie-like being—in the family's kitchen) for all sorts of perceived emergencies, ranging from trying to fit into skinny new clothes to turning Sabrina's boyfriend Harvey into a superhero. By the end of each episode, the magic would backfire. Sabrina would learn that using magic usually wasn't the solution to her day-to-day problems.

Production

The series debuted in 1999. The Archie Comics star had already graced the Saturday morning airwaves in the 1970s (courtesy of Filmation), but the popularity of the live-action Sabrina, the Teenage Witch (TV series) sitcom in the 1990s formed part of the basis for this spin-off series. Unlike previous versions, Sabrina in this series was depicted as a 12-year-old attending middle school. As in the original comic series, Sabrina lives with her two aunts, Hilda and Zelda Spellman, and Salem Saberhagen, Sabrina's sarcastic cat, all of whom advise Sabrina on the use of her powers (thereby contradicting the live-action show's premise of not having those powers prior to her sixteenth birthday; thus this series is essentially a "retelling" of the story, similar in concept to The New Archies, a previous Archie Comics-based DiC production).

Savage Steve Holland (whose previous credits include producing Eek! The Cat) was the executive producer of Sabrina, the Animated Series. As such, the series reflected some of the irreverent style of humor seen on Eek! The Cat. Celebrity voice cameos in this series included Mr. T and "Weird Al" Yankovic.

Melissa Joan Hart, who starred in the live-action sitcom, acted as producer of this series, but her younger sister, Emily Hart, voiced Sabrina. Melissa instead voiced Sabrina's two aunts, Hilda and Zelda. Salem is voiced by Nick Bakay, who also voiced Salem in the live-action series.

The series ran on UPN and in syndication (on Disney's One Too weekday afternoon block) and on ABC (on Disney's One Saturday Morning block) for one season with 65 episodes produced. In October 2002, a made-for-television movie based on the series was produced for cable channel Nickelodeon (TV channel). This was soon followed by a follow-up animated series, Sabrina's Secret Life. The original series at that time began airing on cable channels Disney Channel and Toon Disney, but recently has reverted once again to airing in syndication. During the 2006-2007 television season, the series returned as part of CBS's new KOL Secret Slumber Party on CBS and was briefly part of the KEWLopolis cartoon lineup.

In Germany, Sabrina's Secret Life is simply a third season of Sabrina, the Animated Series, both under the title Simsalabim Sabrina. [1] [2]

DVD Release

The Very Best of Sabrina: the Animated Series by Shout! Factory contains twelve episodes of the cartoon.[[2]] It is currently unknown if the entire series will be released on DVD.

This show has also been released earlier on several other DVDs, including Witch in Training, Bat Attack, and the holiday special A Witchmas Carol by Animation Station.

Merchandise

An 11 inch Sabrina fashion doll was released by the company Bambola [[3]]. Several other small plastic toys, including a few figurines and a Polly Pocket-esque Sabrina doll were sold in stores while the series was in production. [[4]]

Comic Book

While Sabrina, the Animated Series was airing, Archie Comics printed a comic spin-off for the show. The first issue was dated January 2000 (meaning it was on-sale in late 1999), and it lasted for 37 issues.
In order to tie the plot in with their current Sabrina series, it was explained in the first issue that Repulsa the Goblin queen had sent Sabrina back in time to relive her pre-teen years, so that she would be out of the way while Repulsa attempted to conquer Enchantra's realm. In issue 38, the Repulsa plot was resolved, and the comic book switched to chronicling the teenage Sabrina.

Characters

  • Sabrina Spellman

Voiced by Emily Hart, has a secret: she's a half witch/mortal. She doesn’t become magically empowered until she's sixteen, but it’s possible to borrow spells from her aunts Hilda and Zelda, which she often does. She finds her meddling turns the situation from bad to worse. Her friend Chloe is aware of Sabrina's magic but Harvey Kinkle, another friend and her romantic interest, isn't.

  • Harvey Dwight Kinkle

Voiced by Bill Switzer, has a cute and sweet personality, and, of course, is too shy to admit to Sabrina as anything more than his best pal. He is unaware Sabrina is a witch though often sees the results of the magic himself.

Voiced by Melissa Joan Hart, while Hilda suggests they bend the rules a little and magic to get ahead, Zelda’s determined to say no right up until the moment she gives up. Hilda is more carefree and reckless than her cautious sister Zelda but although they do butt heads they love each other. In this series and Sabrina's Secret Life, Hilda and Zelda both have the appearance of teenagers, as this was the punishment they received from Enchantra for "abusing magic" in the past.

  • Salem

Voiced by Nick Bakay, Sabrina's cat (and probably familiar) with a big attitude. Together they're a potent combination. Salem knows the right buttons to push to talk Sabrina into just about anything and he does it guiltlessly - until he's caught.

  • Gemini "Gem" Stone
