Ringer Fan Bricklayer has put together this partial guide to Tolkien/LoTR TV in the USA over the Christmas period. If anyone has more programs (from around the world) to add to this, I will try but my memory is worse than Barliman’s so it’s just as likely that I’ll forget to!
The source for these listings is the tvguide website and the listings all in Central Standard time. As always, check your local listings!
