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
The Evie Hayes Show is an Australian television variety series starring vocalist Evie Hayes. The half-hour series debuted on 4 July 1960 and ran a season of eight episodes on Melbourne station ABV-2, and was also shown on ABN-2 in Sydney (it is not known if it was shown on ABC's stations in other cities). ABC variety series of the era had intentionally shorter seasons than those on commercial television in Australia. The series aired live, with musical backing by the ABC Melbourne Dance Band. Other performers who appeared on the series included Reg Grey, Joan Clarke, Raymond McDonald, Verona Cappadona, Frankie Davidson, The Unichords, Alan Eddy, Annette Klooger, Barry Purcell, Will Mahoney, June Barton, Ian Williams, Gaynor Bunning, Tony Jenkins, Graeme Bent, Clive Hearne, Fay Agnew, Bob Garrity, Johnny Marco, and Margaret Becker. In 1962, the series was revived for an additional set of episodes. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
