The 3D catalogue: film cases on wooden shelves, with the cat sitting at the counter next to its greeting.

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.

What happens

《包青天》是臺灣中華電視台於1974年4月8日至11月3日期間播出的古裝國語連續劇,每集30~40分鐘 (含廣告),華視節目部製作,製作人為田文光與邊啟明,儀銘主演(後期兼任執行製作)。原本計畫製作30集,但播出後大受歡迎,華視節目部便不斷延長集數,最後共播出350集,創下當時臺灣電視劇播映集數最高紀錄。由於大受歡迎,本劇播至中期時,華視應觀眾要求增加播出時間,將原本的周一至周日晚上20:00~20:30時段加長10分鐘播至20:40,並在《華視晚間新聞》之前增闢18:50~19:30的時段,變成每天播出兩集。 (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
