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

Auction Hunters is an American reality television series that premiered on November 9, 2010, on Spike. In June 2011, Spike announced that it had ordered a third season of Auction Hunters with 26 episodes. In August 2012, Spike announced that it had ordered a fourth season of 26 episodes. The fourth season premiered on January 30, 2013 as Auction Hunters: Pawnshop Edition and focused not only on storage auctions, but also Haff and Jones running a pawn Shop named Haff-Ton Pawn Shop. On April 11, 2014, Spike ordered a 20-episode fifth season that premiered in late 2014. Season 5 encompasses the duo as they expand their business past storage unit auctions. On April 8, 2015, Spike announced that season five would be the final season, which made the program the longest-running nonscripted show on Spike at the time. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
