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

Cover Up is a television series that aired for one season on CBS from September 22, 1984, to April 6, 1985. Created by Glen A. Larson, it starred Jennifer O'Neill, Jon-Erik Hexum, Antony Hamilton, and Richard Anderson. The series earned mediocre ratings, but is remembered for the untimely death of Hexum from a fatal accident from the misuse of a prop handgun with a blank cartridge against his head. That led to not only Hexum's role being recast, but also stricter industry armorer rules about the handling of firearm props in recognition of the hazards of blanks. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
