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

Talented people from Belgium perform on stage in front of judges and a live audience. A host guides the show as contestants compete for votes. It is the French-speaking Belgian version of the British talent show format.

What happens

Belgium's Got Talent (French: La Belgique a du Talent) is a Belgian TV show produced by FremantleMedia and broadcast by RTL-TVI since September 10, 2012 (2012-09-10). It is hosted by Julie Taton and Jean-Michel Zecca. It is a local adaptation (in French-speaking Belgium) of the British talent show Britain's Got Talent, created by Simon Cowell. A TV show by the same name, hosted by Koen Wauters and Laura Tesoro, is broadcast on a Dutch-speaking channel in Belgium VTM. At its height, the judges were Dan Karaty, An Lemmens, Stan Van Samang and Niels Destadsbader. Then, in 2021, popular American and Dutch TV personality Dan Karaty was replaced on the judging panel, without explanation, by VTM's head of programming, Davy Parmentier. As a result, the once top-rated show fell dramatically in the ratings. "Belgium's Got Talent" has not aired since then. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
