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

Sports Kids Moms & Dads is an American reality television series that premiered on the Bravo cable network on June 1, 2005. The eight-part documentary series follows the lives of several parents and their child athletes, focusing on how they "struggle to excel in the highly stressful, competitive, "win at all costs" world of sports." The show premiered following the success of another similar reality series entitled Showbiz Moms & Dads and Showdog Moms & Dads. Roger Catlin of the Hartford Courant criticized the show by saying that it was "all presented without experts stepping in to say how involved parents should be in their children's sports dreams. Instead, it's pure voyeurism." (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
