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

Twelve former housemates return for an all-stars season of Big Brother in Belgium. The show promised a battle of the best but delivered short challenges and long stretches of boredom. A reluctant winner from an earlier season was voted out early, and the season finished with a statue instead of a cash prize.

What happens

Big Brother All Stars is the all-stars format spin-off season of the Belgian version of Big Brother aired in the Flemish Region of Belgium on KanaalTwee. The show started on 31 August 2003, with twelve past Housemates from the previous seasons, and finished on 20 September 2003 with a total duration of 21 days. Although the All-Stars concept was applauded when revealed, this season's ratings dropped. Announced as "the battle of the best (housemates)", the viewers and critics missed a battle. Since there were no tasks but only challenges that didn't last long, most of the time the housemates were bored. The missing of the most famous housemate of Big Brother Belgium, Betty Owczarek was remarkable. The most controversial candidate, Dominique Cardon, was voted out during the launch night. The most rebellious housemate, Steven Spillebeen, made it obvious during the kick-off he felt obligated to participate (as the first Big Brother Belgium winner) but didn't want to be there. He asked to be and was voted out on Day 3. The winner was Heidi Zutterman of the third season who was named "Best Housemate". She didn't receive a money prize but a statue of a sword with the inscriptions of all stars and the inscription "Only can survive". Immediately after the All-Stars season, the fourth regular season started. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
