	Television pilot (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		However, pilots are rarely fair examples of what a "normal episode" of a series is like, since they usually set the general background and tell the origin story for the series (e.g., if the series is about two angry roomates, the pilot will probably show how they met).
		Pilots usually run as the first episode of the series, unless the series ended up being so different from the pilot that it wouldn't make sense (in this case the pilot, or portions of it, is reshot or rewritten to fit the rest of the series).
		A backdoor pilot is a Television movie or other TV special event that being used as a trial balloon—if audiences respond and ratings are good, the studio or network may order subsequent episodes from the creators.

		Pilot season is a frenetic, competitive time in Hollywood; prominent producers, reputable writers, and experienced directors design and showcase their wares for network executives, with each "player" hoping for the next hit series.
		Pilots are expensive to produce, and shows which are not purchased by a network have no value.
		Since the new season is planned using pilots, and the entire offering of a network is usually in place by mid-May, the careful selection of pilots is crucial for designing a competitive line-up of shows.

	What A Ghostwriter Can Do For Your Television Pilot
		When you write for television, you are truly making your mark on pop culture at large and the consciousness of the nation – and the world.
		On the other hand, the pilot – that is, the first episode of a new series – has a much better chance of being picked up from an unknown writer.
		The format that your television pilot must follow, the kind of writing that works best for various genres, and the FCC rules and standards for different networks – all of these are just as important as the actual writing.
