I dont think it should be taken as offenive the way magic and witches/wiccans are portrayed because it displays witches and magic as both protagonist and antagonist depending on the show or movie.

What the young need to understand is that Hollywood is fiction. Let me try to explain that. A book may very well be fiction, that is, a "made up story". But, when an author writes a story there is always some reality in the story;sometimes a little, sometimes a lot. It is the same with a Hollywood movie. The "theme" of the movie is "fiction".It is a story, for entertainment.But it has real people in it, most times, and the writers of movie scripts will always put in a little reality. The writers of movies about witchcraft,magic, the Occult, will always look at a few books about the subject.So, when you watch such a movie or TV show, remember that it is for entertainment.
A movie often seems very realistic, unlike a stage show. But, just as in an audience watching a stage show, watching a movie has to have the same sentiment. "Suspended disbelief".
The problem is that when we see a stage show, we "know" it's not real.But when we see a newsreel on TV, and then watch "Bewitched"
it can be quite difficult to separate the fiction from reality.
All we can really do on this site is to point out that Hollywood movies, and TV stories, are for entertainment. They are not real!
