What now? Post-production on pilot and finished first scene. Trying to plan ahead.

Hi everyone, as background trying to get to a better position, I wrote a script. "The Grand Prince of Moscow". It's a dark comedy TV series. I was able to get a teaser out and it became rather popular in Atlanta. A director found it and collaborated with me. We filmed the first scene. It is on my youtube channel. That got us funding to film the rest of the pilot. So I am in the position of actor, writer, and producer now. We are SAG - legitimate. The director is seasoned and we have had an experienced crew with quality equipment. The story is not prime-time family material. It is PG-13 though - it is off-beat and unconventional. Anyway, I am wondering what should be my next step? Should I try and find and agent? Some guy on another forum told me an agent would not touch this - so don't try... Should I go to production companies (there is only enough funding for the pilot)? What do you all think my next move should be? I have the treatment, media packet, episode one overview. This is my first script and my first shot at ever producing anything. I am not wanting a critique on my show and acting please - and I am not asking for support or funds - just advice and suggestions from people who might care a bit. The full pilot will be out in August. From the start I also made it clear that I was interested in selling the story/concept if that was a possibility? So that would mean they (whoever might buy it) would take it and do what they wanted. Anyway, here is my site and youtube so you have and idea about it. I would be very grateful for any suggestions from all of you? Also, do you think it is worth doing any of the "Pitch sessions" here? www.facebook.com/grandprinceofmoscowtheseries https://www.youtube.com/grandprinceofmoscow https://twitter.com/MoscowPrince http://www.imdb.com/title/tt4368468

Thank you. No one here seems to know what to do.

Edward, what do you mean it became popular in Atlanta? There are several things you could potentially do depending on your overarching goals. Perhaps connect with me via e-mail with your feeds on here and I can take a closer look and provide some feedback.
