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 Merrie Melodies Show was an animated anthology television series released to syndication by Warner Bros. Television in 1972. Each half-hour episode featured three shorts from the Looney Tunes and Merrie Melodies library, primarily those produced after 1960 and featuring Speedy Gonzales, Sylvester and Daffy Duck. This series is not to be confused with the Warners' later syndicated anthology Merrie Melodies Starring Bugs Bunny & Friends. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
