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

Save My Reno is a Canadian television series featuring contractor Sebastian Clovis, a former Canadian Football League player, and designer Samantha Pynn helping homeowners complete needed renovations on a limited budget. The series premiered in 2014 under the title Tackle My Reno, featuring Clovis assisting homeowners with renovations on his own. A single season was produced before the show was relaunched in 2016 as Save My Reno, with Clovis and Sabrina Smelko hosting the retooled show as a duo; after two seasons, Smelko left the show, with Pynn replacing her when the third season aired in 2020. Following a fourth season in 2021, the show ended and Clovis launched the new series Gut Job. Unlike the format of Save My Reno, in Gut Job Clovis works with a variety of different designers on different projects rather than a single consistent co-host, although Pynn has appeared as the designer on some episodes of the show.
