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

Cracked is a British comedy-drama television series which was broadcast on STV in 2008. Created and written by Clare Hemphill and Kate Donnelly, the drama series was set in a Scottish countryside residential rehab clinic, a place where people with various mental and emotional problems check themselves in for some professional tender loving care. Over six episodes, the series deals with issues that are difficult and dark, but also more light-hearted and comical situations. Cracked was produced by STV Studios in 2005, but due to the lack of appropriate regional time-slots, the series was not broadcast until 2008, where it was shown on Thursday nights at 10:40pm, taking the place of popular comedy drama High Times.
