Most of the cast & crew had taken part in a theatre production of LOTR a few years earlier, and then they apparently just decided to make a TV series. I've only seen a few episodes, but Lommy has them on video and we've been planning to watch them all (9) for ages. You can't obviously cram the whole story of LOTR into nine episodes, so the story concentrates on FOTR and Frodo & Sam's journey to Mordor.
