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

The Sunday Roast was an Australian sports talk show that dealt with the issues in the National Rugby League. Created by sports presenter Andrew Voss, it aired on the Nine Network, first screening in 2005, beginning at 11:00 am and leading into The Sunday Footy Show. In 2006, with the axing of Voss's previous show, Boots N' All, The Sunday Footy Show moved to 11:00 am, with The Sunday Roast moving to midday. In 2012, the show, by then hosted by Tim Gilbert following Voss's controversial demotion and ultimate departure from the Nine Network, was incorporated into The Sunday Footy Show as a shorter segment rather than airing as a separate show. In 2015, the segment was dropped altogether due to its sharp decline in popularity. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
