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

Me TV (known as Мэн патологоанатом Телевизор in Russia, Mnie Telewizja in Poland, and Sa akin Telebisyon in the Philippines), was a popular Nickelodeon interstitial show about children from around world and their many passions, hobbies, and interest. The live action show was shot all over Asia and Europe, where kids were asked to answer everything under the sun from what their favorite foods and movie stars were, to probing questions like "What would you do if you were President of your country?" Popular episodes filmed in the Philippines and India included "What's in your lunchbox?", "How do you get to school?" and "What would you do if you could design your own uniform"? The show aired from 1998 to 2001, and 26 episodes were produced in the length of two TV seasons. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
