Been working on an idea for a TV series since the beginning of July. It's a part of a much larger continuity. Not sure if I should copyright it first and put it on file with the Library of Congress or pitch it here. Would like to discuss it even more with someone who could help me polish the idea and get a deal with, like, Netflix or HBO Max.
Yeah.
Copyright first.

Congrats on your series, Joseph Rousell! I would say Both - copyright first, and then pitch it here.
Have you written the pilot for this series or just the treatment? Have you put together a pitch for your screenplay as well? I would highly recommend using Stage 32's free Pitching Guidebook to help you structure your pitch, whether it is a 2-page pitch document, a 5-minute verbal pitch, or a 15-30 page pitch deck: https://www.stage32.com/sites/stage32.com/themes/two/pdfs/happy-writers/...
