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 family of aliens crash land on Earth and have to blend in while waiting for their infant Pupa to grow and terraform the planet. The two parents have opposite views on humanity: one hates it and one loves it, while the kids cause chaos.

What happens
Solar Opposites is an American adult animated science-fiction sitcom created by Justin Roiland and Mike McMahan for Hulu. The series follows a family of aliens consisting of Korvo, Terry, Yumyulack, and Jesse, who escape their doomed homeworld and arrive on Earth with a mission to protect their infant Pupa, which will eventually evolve to terraform the planet and destroy humanity. While Korvo and Yumyulack dislike humans and their culture, Terry and Jesse quickly adapt to living on Earth. The series also features a "show-within-a-show" subplot titled "The Wall", which follows a society of humans that have been shrunk down by Yumyulack and kept inside a large terrarium built into his bedroom wall. The voice cast consists of Justin Roiland as Korvo, Thomas Middleditch as Terry, Sean Giambrone as Yumyulack, and Mary Mack as Jesse. After Roiland was removed from the series in early 2023, Dan Stevens replaced him as Korvo starting with the fourth season. Recurring guest stars include: Carlos Alazraqui, Clancy Brown, Sterling K. Brown, Kieran Culkin, Andy Daly, Sutton Foster, Tiffany Haddish, Christina Hendricks, Alfred Molina, Charlotte Nicdao, Nolan North, Rob Schrab, and Kari Wahlgren. The series was originally developed for Fox, but was later moved to Hulu in 2018 and given a two-season order. It premiered on May 8, 2020, and concluded on October 13, 2025, after six seasons consisting of 63 episodes. Four holiday specials were also released, starting with the second season. Since its debut, the series received positive critical reviews and became one of Hulu's most-watched comedies. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
