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 teams of comedians and guests compete in a game show where they make fun of the week's news stories. The scoring is a joke and the whole thing is just for laughs.

What happens
Dit was het nieuws (Dutch pronunciation: [ˈdɪt ʋɑs ət ˈnius]; Dutch for "This was the news") is a Dutch television panel show, produced by AVROTROS and broadcast on NPO 1, wherein two teams give a satirical account of the previous week's news. The program has the form of a game show in which two teams, each with a team leader and weekly guest, compete against each other. The scoring is not serious; after the first round, for instance, the score is always 4-4. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
