Beanamir of Gondor has just left Hobbiton.

I distinctly remember hearing of a riveting television special that ran for a great length of time in ME, called Entmoot. Two tribes of Ents would be taken from Fangorn Forest, and placed in different parts of ME, to get episodes of the show such as Entmoot Minas Morgul, Entmoot Caradhras, and even one grueling one called Entmoot under the Dimholt.
The point of the show, of course, was for the Ents to survive in these difficult places, without being supplied with... well, with whatever Ents survive on. There were also tasks they had to complete, some physical, some gross: one I recall was the eating of meat prepared by orcs. Each week the Ents would gather in their Entmoot and vote which Ent was going back to Fangorn. The last remaining Ent would win the very special prize: an Entwife.
The only problem was that around the third or fourth season there was a scandal from some of the Ents who had won. They had discovered that their Entwives were not really Entwives, but were simply Cave-Trolls in very clever costumes devised by Radagast the Brown. Radagast (the producer) shut down the show for good.
Reruns of the show, apparently, soon gave way to another one called That Second-Age Show, which featured Boromir doing a lot of disco.

(P.S. I sure hope this thread keeps alive. It's going to be hysterical.)
