Silmaril

I can fully see the Dunedain watching Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles... hidden defenders of all that is good, and all that jazz.

I just had the most amusing image of the Mirkwood spiders all gathered around a big screen TV watching Spiderman.

Gimli would sit around watching Snow White and the Seven Dwarves and wonder how they screwed the story up so badly. The Seven Dwarf Lords? Turned into those things? And the work on the Glittering Caves turned into a day job for the little creatures... whatever could they have been thinking? Travesty.

1420! Elves on the brain

Since no one has mentioned Legolas (which some would consider a tradegy) I will!

He would watch the Feebler cookie commercials in horror. How in the world could they confuse elves with hobbits!? (Really tiny hobbits anyway.)

I don't think hobbits would watch that many cartoons, probably just the Food channel and Cooking shows.

Arwen Lifetime channel

Aragorn's therapist would have him watch SpongeBob Squarepants "see he's underwater and he's a sponge and he's clean see how happy he is?" Aragorn-"NO no more water no suds no sponge AHHHHHHHH!!!!!!"

Bilbo would be glued to the Discovery Channel...no doubt.
Frodo...I think he'd get hooked on anime, especially something like Neon Genesis Evangelion.
The rest of the hobbits would probably just watch Food Network all day.

Sam would watch Home and Garden TV. Especially the garden oriented stuff. Martha Stewart would be another fave of his.

Sauron would watch Visine drops commercials and drool, and by as many as he could get.

I love that show!

I don't think Gandalf would watch CNN (although that has more to do with my opinion of CNN than Gandalf )

I think Saruman would watch Robot Wars (the English version, not the one from the US) -- lots of machines battling other machines. It'd be great for him since he loves technology so much

Sting Hey! I was watching that!

Now, I don't know about you, but I think seeing LotR characters watching TV on a Saturday morning would be just a little scary. Oh, well. Here's a few.

I think every hobbit would watch the Food channel, as previously said.
Gandalf would watch the Discovery channel I think. Him liking knowledge and all that.
Sauron would watch (and there is such a thing, I've seen it) the jewelry channel and drool at all of the gold rings.
The Rohirric people would watch the Pony Club, no doubt.
Gollum would watch the fishing channel.
Frodo would watch the Discovery channel with Gandalf.
Sam would watch the Gardening specials and he would laze around with Chef So-and-so.
Merry and Pippin I can imagine watching old cartoons like Tom and Jerry. Especially Pippin. Merry might watch a couple other shows, like maybe CSI/CSI Miami.
