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

A boy gets a brain transplant from a cartoon character. This gives him the ability to see and interact with animated characters in the real world.

What happens

Out of Jimmy's Head (abbreviated as OOJH) is an American live-action animated teen sitcom created by Tim McKeon and Adam Pava for Cartoon Network. It is based on the network's 2006 film Re-Animated, and is the first live-action/animated television series produced by Cartoon Network. The series was produced by Cartoon Network Studios and Brookwell McNamara Entertainment (the latter known for Disney's shows such as Even Stevens and That's So Raven). The creators, Tim McKeon and Adam Pava, were originally writers for other Cartoon Network shows such as Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends and The Life and Times of Juniper Lee, before creating Weighty Decisions, a short on the network's Sunday Pants anthology series. The series premiered on Cartoon Network on September 14, 2007, to coincide with the release of the Re-Animated film on DVD, and was the only series on the network to be affected by the 2007–08 Writers Guild of America strike. The U.S. run of the series ended with the airing of the series' final episode on May 29, 2008. The series has never streamed on HBO Max. Although Renegade Animation did the pilot film's animation, due to budget and time constraints, the series' animation was produced in-house at Cartoon Network Studios through their Flash division. Cartoon Network did not acknowledge the series again until 2018, where Golly had a cameo role on OK K.O.! Let's Be Heroes, in the season two episode, "Crossover Nexus", along with a small cameo with Dolly and Crocco in the 20th anniversary mural from 2012. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
