Unlike the test audience, television critics generally reacted positively to the pilot, viewing it as original and innovative, USA Today critic Tom Green summarized the show as a "crisply funny blend of stand-up routines interwoven with more traditional sitcom stuff".
We chose to pilot viewing of unscreened (unapproved, live) results because of concerns about the practicality of putting an extra task on hard pressed clinicians and the inevitable delays that this would introduce in presenting the results to patients.

Cameras are being installed in cockpits to transmit the pilot's view to giant screens on the ground, with pilots providing their own commentary.
Designers of devices such as the Palm Pilot may view them as computational devices to help people better manage their lives: users see them as extensions of self.
At another exhibit, $40 sessions in a replica of a Phantom cockpit, with a live flight coach and projected pilot's view, were already booked for the day by 12 30 p.m.
