As you might have guessed, Hollywood will be trying to capitalize on the awesome success of the movies, and trying to come up with ideas for TV shows that can ride on LOTR's coattails. It was a topic in chat -- see if you can come up with some possible TV show titles. Here's some to get you started.

SURVIVOR: Moria -- a collection of hobbits, men, dwarves and elves compete against each other in Balrog-tipping, orienteering, and orc-dodging, voting off others in an attempt to win an all-expense-paid trip to Valinor.

Touched By A Maia -- 5 wizards sent from Manwe try to do good deeds fir the inhabitants of Middle earth, but only one actually gets anything done.

Law and Order: Sauron's Intent -- The inner workings of the White Council as they attempt to bring the Dark Lord to justice.

CSI Mordor -- A spinoff of Law and Order: Sauron's Intent, this show documents the actions of the private halfling investigators who actually go into the Black Land.

Everybody Loves Rangers -- A situation comedy about the life of a wild teenager named Aragorn being raised by a boring family of elves.

Star Trek: Earendil -- Carrying the last of the great jewels, Earendil desperatly sails the heavens in search of a decent cup of coffee.

I know you can do better than this....
