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
This is a Canadian daytime talk show from the early 1980s. Each week, interviews from the daily episodes were edited into a prime-time highlights show. The host left after a few years to start an American show.

What happens
The Alan Thicke Show is a Canadian daytime talk show hosted by Alan Thicke. A replacement for The Alan Hamel Show, which ran from 1976 to 1980, it aired on CTV between 1980 and 1983. During its run, highlights from the week's interviews were edited together for a weekly prime-time series on CTV which aired under the titles Prime Cuts and Fast Company. Thicke left the series in order to launch a US talk show, Thicke of the Night, and was replaced by Don Harron, with the show subsequently retitled The Don Harron Show. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
