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

I Get That a Lot is a reality television series that aired on CBS. Celebrities are placed in everyday working class jobs while hidden cameras are used to capture the reactions of unsuspecting customers and passersby. When the celebrities are recognized, they deny their real identities and say "I get that a lot," until the end of the segment, at which time the cameras are revealed and they come forward about their identities. The first two episodes also aired internationally in Australia on Channel Ten. There is also a French version based on the format, named Sosie ! Or Not Sosie ?, produced by Carson Prod and aired on French TV leader TF1. There is also an Arabic version based on the format, named مشبه عليك, produced by Sugar Rush Productions and aired on Arabic TV leader Abu Dhabi TV. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
