To start off, I decided to do the teen cast of Sabrina, the Teenage Witch!
MELISSA JOAN HART (SABRINA SPELLMAN):
Melissa Joan Hart played the title role in the hit sitcom Sabrina, the Teenage Witch for seven seasons, casting spells each week that usually got her into trouble. (But it was all worked out with a 'lesson' by the end of the episode!) The show was followed by two animated series, with Hart voicing the two zany aunts, Aunt Hilda and Aunt Zelda, and her sister, Emily Hart, playing Sabrina. Before Sabrina, she played Clarissa Darling in Nickelodeon's teen-orientated show, Clarissa Explains It All, which led to a cancelled spin-off simply titled Clarissa. She starred in a few made-for-TV films, and had minor roles in theatrical ones as well, such as in Can't Hardly Wait, Not Another Teen Movie, and The Specials. Her second big break came in the form of a teen comedy: Drive Me Crazy, co-starring Adrien Greiner and Ali Larter.
What is Melissa up to now, you may ask? Well, she married singer and guitarist Mark Wilkerson in 2003, which led to two children, as seen in the picture above. First came Mason, who was born in 2006, and then Braydon, born in 2008. Yes, Melissa is still acting. She starred in two ABC Family movies: Holiday in Handcuffs (with Mario Lopez) and My Fake Fiance (With Joey Lawrence.) She also starred in the 2002 movie, Rent Control, with Carmen Electra. What's planned next? A sequel to Holiday in Handcuffs, aptly titled Holiday in Handcuffs 2, coming to ABC Family in 2010. Melissa is now 33 years old.
NATE RICHERT (HARVEY KINKLE):
Nate Richert played the dreamy Harvey Kinkle, Sabrina Spellman's high school boyfriend, on Sabrina, the Teenage Witch. He left after the high school years were over, only to reappear later on in the series. Richert hasn't done much outside of his work on Sabrina. His other film roles include: Sinners Need Company and Pinita: Survival Island. Right now he is living in Los Angeles with his girlfriend and his dog, and is currentley making Bluegrass/Americana music with his band, pictured above (Nate is on the left.) Nate is now 31 years old.
MICHELLE BEAUDOIN (JENNIFER "JENNY" KELLEY)
Michelle Beaudoin, like Nate, isn't known for much outside of the Sabrina-verse. She has guest starred in many TV series, such as Neon Rider, The Outer Limits, Poltergeist: The Legacy, and Cold Squad, as well as being a main castmember in the shot-lived series, Madison. She has been in the films Bad Company, Waydowntown, and Ginger Snaps 2: Unleashed. Her last acting credit is from 2007, and doesn't appear to be doing much lately. Michelle is now 33.
LIBBY CHESSLER (JENNA LEIGH GREEN):
Jenna Leigh Green played the snooty, popular character that everyone loved to hate. Libby Chessler tormented Sabrina and her friends all throughout high school, and one can only wonder how Libby is doing now. Jenna, on the other hand, is still entertaining audiences, just in a different way. During her Sabrina years, she guest starred on such series such as E.R., Dharma and Greg, and Figure it Out. She then made the transition from screen to stage, tackling the role of Nessarose, the Wicked Witch of the West's sister, in Broadway's Wicked. She also got to play Elphaba, the Wicked Witch herself, over forty times. Her other theatre credits include The Wizard of Oz, The Secret Garden, The Fantasticks, Romeo & Juliet, Into the Woods, and West Side Story. In 1999, she was cast as Ivy, a main role, in the musical Bare: A Pop Opera. She held onto that role until 2007, doing various things such as stage readings, actual performances, and finally a cast album. Her recent work includes a 2009 guest spot in CBS's Ghost Whisperer. Jenna Leigh Green is now 34 years old.
LINDSAY SLOANE (VALERIE BIRKHEAD):
Valerie Birkhead is that girl in high school that just clings. She clings to Sabrina and Harvey like a moth to a flame. I think she was just desperate for a friend. Anyway, she replaced Jenny Kelley, who mysteriously disappeared after the first season, as Sabrina's best friend. Self-concious and zany, she was the perfect match for Ms. Spellman. Her first major role was playing Alice Pedermeir on The Wonder Years for three years. After Sabrina, she joined the casts of Grosse Point and The Stones. She has appeared in dozens of popular television series, including Full House, That 70's Show, Blossom, My So-Called Life, Dharma and Greg, The West Wing, and Entourage. Her film credits include minor roles in Bring it On, Exposed, The In-Laws, Nancy Drew, Over Her Dead Body, and The Accidental Husband. Sloane married agent Dar Rollins in 2004, and was best friend Sarah Michelle Gellar's mad of honor at her wedding to Freddie Prinze Jr. Sloane is now 31 years old.
DAVID LASCHER (JOSH):
Josh was Sabrina's boyfriend while in college. He was everything that Harvey Kinkle was not: smooth, suave, and mature. He worked at Aunt Hilda's coffee shop for most of his run on the series. He was married for a short while in 1995, and then again with current wife, Jill London, whom he has two children with. His other acting credits include: Two of a Kind, Clueless, Veronica's Closet, Blossom, Beverly Hills, 90210, Step By Step, Roseanne, and Full House. He is now 37 years old.
SOLEIL MOON FRYE (ROXIE KING)
Soleil Moon Frye played Roxie King, the rebellious, blunt, sarcastic college roomate of Sabrina Spellman's. She was a change from the other peppy friends she had in high school, but it took some adjusting to. Soleil Moon Frye is best known for her role as the title character in Punky Brewster, and it's animated spin-off. Her other TV roles have been in: Saved By the Bell, The Wonder Years, Cadets, Friends, The Proud Family, and Tiny Toon Adventures. In 1998, Frye married Jason Goldberg, a television producer and an actor, and they have two children, Poet and Jagger. Frye's film credits include roles in Pumpkinhead 2: Blood Wings, The Girls' Room, I've Been Waiting For You, and the Bratz movie. Soleil Moon Frye also just opened a children's boutique in Los Angeles, titled The Little Seed. Soleil is now 32 years old.
ELISA DONOVAN (MORGAN CAVANAUGH):
Morgan Cavanauh, Sabrina's other roomate, was a far cry from Roxie King. Morgan was whiny, rich, and got everything she wanted, including Sabrina's high school boyfriend, Harvey Kinkle. Elisa Donovan's first breakthrough role was in the teen comedy, Clueless. Her other notable films include A Night at the Roxbury,, and a guest starring role on Beverly Hills, 90210. Recentley, she guest starred in Disney Channel's Sonny With a Chance. Morgan suffered through a hard time before her gig on Sabrina, battling anorexia, and she even wrote a story for a "Chicken Soup for the Soul" book, describing her anorexic experiences. Elisa is now 38 years old.
TREVOR LISSAUER (MILES GOODMAN)
Miles was Sabrina's third college roomate. He was that geeky, video-game obsessed, shaggy kid you've met. He had a crush on all three of his roomates, yet never got past a kiss with Roxie. Miles, much like Jenny Kelley had earlier, disappeared after two seasons playing the adorkable character. Trevor hasn't been acting again until recentley, with his new comedy, American Cowlisp, coming out this year. Instead, he has been focusing on his musical career. He is the lead singer of the band, "The Glass Plastiks," and has released two CD's so far. Trevor is now 35 years old.
I hope you all enjoyed that entry into this new series I've begun!
