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.

The show debuted in July 2000, and originally was supposed to run for just eight episodes. Originally produced by Lena Andel and hosted by Adam Webb, the series became a magnet for local Perthonalities to appear on and show community support for the newly formed TV station.
