The catalogue in 3D
The film shelves have a room of their own that you can walk around in. The cat behind the counter is the AI Catbot, and they pick real films from the same catalogue when you tell them what you feel like watching. Nothing is for sale, here or in there. Go in from here and this series is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.
How it feels
A panel of journalists sits at a roundtable to discuss the week's political news in Washington. The conversation follows a calm and respectful tone, avoiding heated arguments. The moderator guides the discussion on key policy and political developments.

What happens
Washington Week, originally titled as Washington Week in Review and billed as Washington Week with the Atlantic since 2023, is an American public affairs television program, which has aired on PBS and its predecessor, National Educational Television, since 1967. The program is produced by WETA-TV in Washington, D.C. Since 2023, the program has been moderated by editor-in-chief of The Atlantic, Jeffrey Goldberg. Unlike other panel discussion shows, which encourage informal (sometimes vociferous) debates as a means of presentation, Washington Week consistently follows a path of civility and moderation. Its format is that of a roundtable featuring the show's moderator and two to four Washington-based journalists. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
