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.

How it feels

Contestants stand on a giant grid and face off in timed trivia duels to take over opponents' squares. The winner is the last person standing who controls the whole floor and collects the cash prize.

What happens

The Floor is a game show that premiered on Nine Network on 28 April 2025. It is currently being hosted by Rodger Corser. The series is an adaptation of the Dutch format created by John de Mol. Contestants challenge adjacent opponents in timed duels, aiming to take over their opponents' squares and expand their own territory. The game progresses as players choose opponents and categories, with the ultimate goal of controlling the entire floor to win the grand prize of $200,000. The first season featured 81 contestants on a 9x9 grid. On 24 October 2024, it was announced that Nine had ordered the series' first season at their 2025 upfronts. Nine began applications for the second season's casting on 20 May 2025 after the success of the first. The second season premiered on 19 April 2026 with the same host. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
