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

A puppet in the Bronx hosts a talk show where he interviews celebrities. The show also includes crude educational segments and very adult humor.

What happens

The Bronx Bunny Show is an Irish ten-part television series originally broadcast in 2003 on E4 in the United Kingdom and later in Ireland. It was an adult puppet interview show that followed the premise of a semi-educational show for the good people of the Bronx, Queens and Manhattan. The show was produced from a run-down tenement building in the Bronx, where Bronx Bunny and his sidekick, a cigarette-smoking panda named Teddy T, would interview celebrities who "done good". The Bronx Bunny Show won the IFTA Award for Best Entertainment Programme in 2004. Also featured on the show were pseudo-educational items, such as "The Internal Gerbil", who sang songs about internal organs from inside a gay man, numbers illustrated by pole-dancing women who contorted into the shape of that week's number, and Spanish phrases such as "Your mother bangs like a screen door in a tornado" allegedly voiced by Maïa Dunphy. The show was broadcast sporadically on E4 and eventually on Channel 4. The series gained a cult following as it featured interviews with guests such as Hugh Hefner, Jessica Alba, William Shatner, and Larry Flynt. The show was created by Double Z Enterprises, an Irish production company behind such characters as Zig and Zag and Podge and Rodge. In 2010, the entire Channel 4 season was made available to view on the 4oD site. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
