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

Drawn Together is an American adult animated sitcom created by Dave Jeser and Matt Silverstein. It aired on Comedy Central from October 27, 2004, to November 14, 2007, spanning three seasons. The series is a parody of house-based reality shows and follows the misadventures of the housemates in the fictional series of the same name. The series uses a sitcom format with a reality TV show setting. Drawn Together uses caricatures of established cartoon characters and stock characters. These character traits parody personalities that are typically seen in reality television shows. Comedy Central advertised it as the first "animated reality TV series" and in some episodes the characters participate in challenges that are similar to reality television challenges. This premise is largely dropped in later episodes. The series was cancelled after three seasons. A direct-to-video film which serves as its series finale, The Drawn Together Movie: The Movie!, was released on April 20, 2010. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
