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
It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia is an American sitcom created by Rob McElhenney and co-developed by Glenn Howerton for FX, currently airing on FXX. The show premiered on August 4, 2005, and stars Charlie Day, Howerton, McElhenney, Kaitlin Olson, and Danny DeVito, with Day, Howerton, and McElhenney as executive producers. The series, influenced by earlier sitcoms like The Office, Seinfeld and Curb Your Enthusiasm, follows the exploits of a group of narcissistic, sociopathic friends who run an Irish dive bar in South Philadelphia, but spend most of their free time drinking, scheming, fighting one another and ruining other people's lives for financial gain and revenge, or simply out of boredom or inebriation. IASIP is the longest-running American live-action sitcom in terms of total seasons, surpassing The Adventures of Ozzie and Harriet's 14 seasons with the release of its 15th season in December 2021. In December 2020, the series was renewed for a total of four additional seasons, bringing it to a total of 18 seasons. The seventeenth and most recent season premiered on July 9, 2025, and ended on August 20, 2025, with an eighteenth season in development. The series has received critical acclaim, being variously described as "Seinfeld on crack" and "white trash comedy", with many critics lauding the show's dark humor, satire, and the cast's performances. It has a large cult following. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
