More than likely, this was yet another failed WB attempt to give cousin Amanda a spin-off. edit »
Goof: Several times on the tennis court, Andy tells Sabrina that "this isn't Wimbledon," that he "should get back to Wimbledon now" or �is there any chance you�d play mixed doubles with me at Wimbledon?� It would not be possible for Andy to be playing in that particular Grand Slam at that time since this episode aired in April and The Wimbledon Championships don't occur until the end of June. edit »
When Zelda casts a spell to dress Salem up as Barney Rubble, Salem said "It worked on John Goodman." However, John Goodman played Fred Flintstone. Rick Moranis played Barney. edit »

No Doubt-"Hey Baby" edit »

(Hilda and Zelda use rap to help Amanda study for her witch's license; Salem is deejaying)
Hilda: (rapping) Yo, witch, it's like this!
Zelda: (rapping) I'm Tenacious Z, I got something to say!
Hilda: (rapping) And I'm Notorious H-I-L-D-A!
Zelda: You'll pass the test if you learn this rap!
Hilda: Before you know it, you'll be queen of the zap!
Zelda: Mix a cup of lizards with some unicorn toes!
Hilda: Fold in some egg whites, out comes a rose!
Salem: You listening, witch?
Amanda: I'm listening.
Zelda: Then listen up good, you got potions to learn!
Hilda: Lint and boils in a pewter urn!
Zelda: All stirred up makes a tasty treat!
Amanda: To knock a gremlin off his feet!
Aunts: She's learning!
Amanda: I'm learning!
Salem: I'm not so sure.
Hilda: Yo, check this!
Zelda: If you want a potion to create an ocean...
Amanda: Mix salt and kelp and you got locomotion! Then add some wind and a couple of fish, and before you know it...
Ladies: Swish, swish, swish!
Amanda: I'm learning!
Aunts: She's learning!
Amanda: I'm gonna pass that test and be the best!
(the rap ends)
Zelda: Oh, thank God.
Hilda: Good. Now we can put on some Garth Brooks. edit »
Josh: Hey, if I become my father and my father becomes me, am I my own grand-pa? edit »
Josh: Most girls just aren�t able to play as well as guys. You can�t help it, it�s just the way you�re programmed.
Sabrina: The way we�re programmed? What am I, a VCR? edit »
Sabrina: I thought we were pretty well matched. I mean I won three games!
Josh: Technically. The truth is I was kind of holding back to make you feel better about yourself.
Sabrina: Gee thanks, I feel phenomenal! edit »
(After finishing a game of tennis.)
Josh: Actually, the custom is to shake, then kiss.
Sabrina: Oh right. Like Agassi and Sampras at the French Open? edit »
