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

Friend or Foe? is an American game show based on knowledge and trust which aired on Game Show Network. Three teams of two strangers attempted to persuade their partner to share their accumulated winnings rather than steal them for themselves. The show premiered June 3, 2002, and aired for two seasons totaling 105 episodes. It was hosted by Lisa Kennedy Montgomery, who was credited as "Kennedy", except for the April Fool's Day 2003 episode (the final first-run episode), in which Mark L. Walberg, the host of Russian Roulette, hosted as part of GSN's April Fools prank; the hosts traded shows for the day made cameo appearances and played for charity on Lingo. The show "re-debuted" in 2008, re-airing episodes from the series during that year. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
