Literally any of the hobbits would be a thousand times more interesting than Aragorn. But of course they'd rather go grimdark and hobbits are too cheerful, aren't they?

[(Anonymous)]

I wouldn't have said most hobbits led particularly interesting lives? Unless you're taking one of the more adventurous Took ancestors, like Bullroarer or Belladonna, or you're setting it after the War of the Ring (taking say Merry or Pippin).

Or, I suppose, if you wanted to do something with the Shiriffs or the Bounders. A Shire version of Midsomer Murders mightn't be the worst thing you could watch.

Failing that, though, isn't a show about most hobbits going to be basically the Middle Earth version of Emmerdale? Or at best Heartbeat?

[(Anonymous)]

I'd still watch it.

point though, hobbits are not the grimdark adventures of Middle-Earth. The Bullroarer would be interesting because of the whole, last time a battle was ever fought in the Shire until the end of the Third Age, but I'd definitely be more interested in following post-Ring Merry and/or Pippin than adolescent Aragorn. He didn't even *do* anything until the war, aside from wander and moon over Arwen.

To be fair, post-war Merry and Pippin didn't do all that much either, iifc. They mostly stayed in the Shire, married, became Master of Buckland and Thain respectively, had some kids, and then in the last few years of their lives went south again one last time. If the series followed movie continuity, you couldn't even add in the rebuilding of the Shire, since the movies omitted the Scouring. Even with them, it'd still be mostly Middle Earth Emmerdale.

Also to be fair, Aragorn was running around Rohan and Gondor in disguise for quite a while, helping discover and fight various agents of Sauron, as well as exploring more of Middle Earth than we've seen yet. So. He did do some things.

IDK. If what you wanted out a show was a non-grimdark Middle Earth adventure, then Belladonna or Bullroarer might be good. Most hobbits, though, you're running into a problem of crossed audiences. Most people do look to Middle Earth for adventure, not a pastoral fantasy soap opera. I mean, it's there, but it's usually the thing the characters have to leave/return to, rather than the focus itself.

A Shire version of Midsomer Murders mightn't be the worst thing you could watch.

Agreed.

Someone once suggested a series based on the law firm Grubb, Grubb and Burrowes. I would totally watch that. Also I think Lobelia should get her own series.

Elrond's story probably isn't covered by the terms of the contract that Amazon has with the Estate. maybe if they get Young Aragorn right, they might get the chance to do more?

[(Anonymous)]

I mean... I would definitely watch a hobbit-centric show but I just can't imagine that being very popular. Hobbits are just so domestic and pastoral.

[(Anonymous)]

I'm not even a big Aragorn fan, but I'm so over hobbits.
