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
Two flatmates in their thirties get into harmless mischief and comic misunderstandings. They navigate work, relationships, and their own immaturity.

What happens
Men Behaving Badly is a British sitcom that was created and written by Simon Nye. It follows the lives of Gary Strang (Martin Clunes) and his flatmates Dermot Povey (Harry Enfield; series 1 only) and Tony Smart (Neil Morrissey; series 2 onwards). It was first broadcast on ITV in 1992, before moving to BBC One in 1994. From 1992 to 1998 there were six series, a Christmas special and a trilogy of episodes that make up the feature-length finale "Last Orders". The series was filmed in and around Ealing in West London. The setting, however, is implied to be South London, and many references are made to Surrey. It was produced by Hartswood Films in association with Thames for the first two series on ITV. They also assisted with production of the third series onwards that aired on the BBC, after Thames had lost their regional ITV franchise for London at the end of 1992 to Carlton Television. Men Behaving Badly became highly successful after being moved to a post-watershed slot on BBC One. It won the Comedy Awards' best ITV comedy and the first National Television Award for Situation Comedy. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
