Netflix has given a yet-untitled "Sabrina the Teenage Witch" TV series a 20-episode, two- season, straight-to-series order.

The Sabrina show had been in development in September at The CW as a possible companion-show to Riverdale, reported Entertainment Weekly.

Both the shows are from Robert Aguirre-Sacasa and are based on characters from the Archie Comic universe.

The series will be based on the Archie Comics graphic novel "Chilling Adventures of Sabrina," which focuses on Sabrina Spellman as a teenager in the '60s dealing with the occult and the Hellish consequences of witchcraft.

Aguirre-Sacasa also wrote the comic "Afterlife" with Archie, which depicts a zombie apocalypse in the town of Riverdale.
