Elisa Donovan is game for a potential "Sabrina the Teenage Witch" revival.

The "Clueless" star, 50, shared her thoughts about the possibility of starring in a reboot of the ABC sitcom alongside costar-turned-good friend Melissa Joan Hart during a recent interview with Us Weekly.

"I think there’ve been so many new, different versions of Sabrina. There was that darker version on Netflix. So, I don’t know. I mean, it would be really fun. I don’t know what the story is there. I think a reunion could be fun," Donovan told the outlet.

"When we did a Comic-Con, we were saying, 'Yeah, let's do a reunion movie in Australia.' Like, 'Let’s just go.' … Everybody would be game, I guess," she added, referring to the "Sabrina" cast's reunion at Stan Lee's L.A. Comic Con in 2017.

Donovan played Morgan Cavanaugh, one of Sabrina's (Hart) roommates when she started at Adams College, as well as her resident adviser. The beloved ABC series also starred Beth Broderick, Caroline Rhea, Nate Richert, Jenna Leigh Green, Martin Mull, Soleil Moon Frye, Lindsay Sloane and David Lascher.

"Sabrina the Teenage Witch" ran for seven seasons on ABC from 1996 to 2003. Donovan's character first debuted in Season 5, and she went on to appear in 55 episodes between 2000 and 2003.

Last month, Hart, 45, posted a tribute for "Sabrina the Teenage Witch" on Instagram to mark the show's 25th anniversary. She shared a series of photos of the cast and accompanied them with a lengthy caption in which she recalled her time on the show.

"It's been brought to my attention that 25 years ago today Sept 27, 1996, our show first aired on ABC for 7 seasons. The little engine that could we called it since it was in the shadows of the largely anticipated show #Clueless, but it persevered and we got to steal @reddonovan to come over to our fun cast," Hart wrote, giving Donovan a shoutout.

She continued, "Tons of talented guest stars, musical acts and magic tv tricks over the years. Full of friendships and crazy memories, it was an incredible ride to be sure! Thanks for the love and support to help us do what we love to do, make people smile!! Happy #SabrinatheTeenageWitch Day!"

Fans of Hart and "Sabrina the Teenage Witch" also celebrated the anniversary by sharing their memories of watching the show growing up.

"It was such a magical time and you were so good. Thanks forever for this show!" commented Rhea, who played Sabrina's aunt Hilda Spellman in the series.

"You know I and a lot of guys fell in love with you on that show, right?" a fan wrote.

"I want this on Netflix so badly! [praying hands emoji] You don’t get Hulu everywhere in the world, but there are the OG Sabrina’s fans everywhere in the world!" another fan commented.

"Sabrina the Teenage Witch" premiered on Sept. 27, 1996, and aired its last episode on April 24, 2003.

Hart and Donovan remained close friends after the series wrapped. Donovan even asked the "Drive Me Crazy" star to pen a special note for her memoir, "Wake Me When You Leave," which was released over the summer.

Donovan also gushed over her former co-star, telling Us Weekly that Hart was "so lovely" and had a "good heart."

"I love her. I say this all the time. She’s like an enigma, how she turned out so normal. It was just a mystery to me. She’s just such a champion of her friends and she’s so down to earth and she’s so generous and very, very funny. She’s a good person," Donovan said of Hart.
