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

Tropical Cop Tales is an American comedy television series created by Jim Hosking and Toby Harvard for Adult Swim. The show revolves around two burned-out city cops, Keymarion "Primetime" Weeyums and Demetrius "Meechie" Franks, who have both relocated to an unnamed small tropical town for a relaxing end to their careers, but soon find out the town is not at all relaxing. The series is produced by Alive and Kicking, Inc. A pilot for the series was commissioned, and scenes were previewed on the Adult Swim streaming series Development Meeting, hosted by company vice presidents Walter Newman and Cameron Tang. On June 27, 2018, Adult Swim announced that the series would have its official premiere on July 29, 2018. On May 24, 2020, Adult Swim canceled Tropical Cop Tales following the first season. The series was not picked up for a second season. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
