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

The NFL on ESPN is an American presentation of the National Football League (NFL) games produced by ESPN, and shown on its various platforms including ESPN itself, the ABC television network, and the ESPN DTC streaming service. National television broadcasts of the National Football League (NFL) first aired on ESPN in 1980, when the network broadcast the 1980 NFL draft. ESPN did not air live NFL games until 1987, when it acquired the rights to Sunday Night Football. In 2006, ESPN lost the rights to Sunday Night Football and began airing Monday Night Football (MNF) instead. Under its current broadcasting deals lasting through 2033, ESPN has live coverage of MNF, sister broadcast network ABC airs selected exclusive or simulcast MNF games, and ESPN+ streams one exclusive game. ESPN/ABC also has a Saturday doubleheader during the last week of the regular season, the Pro Bowl games, the NFL draft, one Wild Card round playoff game, one Divisional round playoff game, and the Super Bowl in 2027 and 2031. Studio programming includes Monday Night Countdown, Sunday NFL Countdown, NFL Live, NFL Primetime, NFL Matchup, Monday Blitz, and Fantasy Football Now. Former NFL commissioner Paul Tagliabue credits ESPN with raising the "profile" of the league, by turning "a potential six- or seven-hour television experience into a twelve-hour television experience," factoring in both the network's pregame show Sunday NFL Countdown and Sunday Night Football.
