Stan is going to drop a bunch of Christmas movies onto the streaming service in November. We're talking classics like Santa Claus: The Movie as well as Love Actually and The Holiday. 

Plus, with Halloween a week away, Stan has also treated us to a bunch of horror films like The Grudge and Halloween. Yes, please.

It’s finally time to go back to Bayside High. The Saved By The Bell reboot is dropping on Stan next month and stars original cast members Mark-Paul Gosselaar, Mario Lopez and Elizabeth Berkley who are reprising their roles of Zack Morris, A.C. Slater and Jessie Spano, respectively.

Here’s the show’s official synopsis: “When California governor Zack Morris gets into hot water for closing too many low-income high schools, he proposes they send the affected students to the highest-performing schools in the state – including Bayside High. The influx of new students gives the over-privileged Bayside kids a much needed and hilarious dose of reality.”

Premieres: November 26, the same day as the US.
