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

Small Talk is an American game show hosted by comedian Wil Shriner and produced by Reg Grundy Productions based on the British game show of the same name that aired on The Family Channel from September 30, 1996, to January 3, 1997. Reruns continued until January 17. The series aired as part of an original game show block, alongside The New Shop 'Til You Drop, Shopping Spree, Wait 'til You Have Kids, and The New Family Challenge. Small Talk along with Kids and Family Challenge would all be cancelled by the end of 1997. This left The New Shop til You Drop and Shopping Spree as the only two game shows left on the block and the only ones (except Family Challenge) to last more than a single season.
