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.

How it feels

It was a short morning show on Channel 4 hosted by Dermot O'Leary. It focused on entertainment interviews rather than news or weather. The show did not get renewed after one season due to low ratings.

What happens

Morning Glory is the fourth breakfast television live programming attempt on Channel 4. It was presented by Dermot O'Leary every weekday morning from 8:30 to 9 am. Due to low ratings, despite having Big Brother's Little Breakfast as a lead-in show, it was not renewed. The show followed on from Celebrity Big Brother 4, which ran in January 2006. The 4 Hero Les Fleurs theme was used to usher in the show. The set was predominantly red, with the show's logo displayed animated with birds flying around it. Its aim was to provide entertainment interviews and not news and weather like its previous incarnations. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
