"This show was shot in 4K high def digital video and not designed to be viewed in 3D or upscaled to 3D," he continued. "It would be cool, I would love to see it on the Apple Vision Pro."

"I also don't know how you would [shoot or upscale to 3D]," added Fraction. "Boy, are you asking the wrong guys."
