Yes, but watching it is optional. I personally am through with that series, and I am a pretty serious fan of the Premier League. (And champions league, World Cup, etc..)
One of the reasons, among the many already cited, that nobody is sitting on tech they've developed is that there's no way to find out all the flaws before putting it into release and using the market as a guinea pig. This holds true for both hardware and software. Software goes out, there are reports of mass destruction, and the author issues an update, and another, and another, as they patch the holes or unsuspected system/hardware conflicts. That's one reason why I never buy a new release of anything until it's been on the market for about 3 months.
Out of curiosity can you say what movies you have worked on? I love stories on VFX development and follow a good channel on YouTube called corridor Crew, where young modern FX experts react to VFX and cgi in film.
I've got credits on about 46 features, and did a lot of "after hours" tweaking on other films so as not to upset some "A" listers whose work needed a polish, as well as emergency triage of a few films. So altogether closer to 60 features, plus mini series, series, commercials, animated shows, etc, etc. It amounts to a few hundred projects and I really can't remember most of it. It kind of blurs together.

About 30 years ago, IMDB created a page on me, most of which is actually accurate, so this will be faster for you:

I never know what advertising is going to show up. It changes. Originally, like a lot of other sites when they first get launched, it was service oriented. Now it's kind of a bloated marketing suck.
It should. I have had a hell of a time getting films that I worked on added to that page, and films that I did not work on dropped from that page. And then there's the nonsense with the animated TV series where they say "worked on 3 episodes" or 5 episodes or some such other bullshit. Every animated series I've worked on I've worked on all episodes. I honestly don't know where they come up with that crapBut...
You being an expert in making the UNreal "become real" on a screen gives one pause when reading things like "your" IMDB page, doesn't it?
Hmmmm???
Shit floatsExcuse me, sir...
Do you realize you are indirectly implying that Amazon and Google would take advantage of having become bigger than the economies all but fourteen countries on Earth?
That the accuracy and completeness of the information supplied by their online products might be steered by greed?
Surely you jest.

I see from IMDB that you do matte painting work. I thinks that's cool as. I was always impressed by how realistic the matte painting work on Star Wars was through leafing through my 'Art of Star Wars' books. As well as the concept art of Ralph Mcquarrie.

You would be surprised, if not shocked, at how "loosey goosey" traditional matte paintings are. Paint too tightly and with too much detail and they photograph looking fake. The trick was to find the correct mark that the lens and emulsion would change to look "real". What needed to be spot on were the values, from black to white. Also, you needed to be able to compute in your head how each batch of film would translate your colors since none of them were 100% accurate. And there were a couple of trick techniques, one using IP stock as a negative that gave you wonderful fine grain results, as long as you could compensate for the peculiar way IP stock "interpreted" colors, very different from regular negative stock.

The program cited to non-existent case law, resulting in the attorney being sanctioned (for misleading the court with fake cases and then the cover up) and possibly facing licensing issues.
