Hobbit TV Series - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

I'd like to see The Hobbit put on screen, but TV programs have their problems. I'd be worried about not enough interest from the public, and it would be canceled halfway through the story, or due to the lenght of the production, they'd end up using three different actors for the same part. I think that's why PJ wanted to shoot the trilogy nonstop, to guarantee he'd have the same cast for the entirety of the films. And yeah, I share the same fear as many of you, that if it were put onto the small screen, they would "cheese it up".
