If a network produces a pilot for my show, does that mean I've sold my show?

Mark Cronin (Founder & Producer) gives expert video advice on: What is a reality show 'pilot'?; Does a network ever buy a show without making a pilot?; Should I put my own money into producing a reality show pilot or series? and more...

Every network is different in the number of pilots that they do versus the number of series that eventually go. Some little networks do very few pilots and buy almost everything they pilot. That's usually rare. Most networks buy a lot of pilots to buy actually very few reality TV shows. In general, I'd say the ratio is probably ten to one.
