adam savage would not be a bad orc name
Half Orc Artificer named Adam the Savage.
Orc tv? Maybe those Japanese obstacle course shows with people getting smashed and pummeled by various obstacles and opponents. Takeshi’s castle and the like.
Wipeout, MXC, American gladiator, ninja warrior. It’s all like physical contest shows and MMA fights lol.
There you go. That’s a better list.
This except people die, like all the time.
Real life squid games
Ill pass on elf and gnome but probably bounce between the rest as the mood strikes
Tiefling TV: an equal split between violent Gothic dramas and talk shows bemoaning stereotypes
Goblin TV: think COPS, but entirely mob-justice based and as trashy as ever
I’d say goblin TV would be mostly Jackass all day, with them trying the stunts themselves while watching
Goblin TV: The trashiest reality TV and nature documentaries about slime molds, swamps and mushrooms
I feel Jersey Shore would be big among Goblins.
For some reason I expect Orcs to watch a lot of sports and physical game shows. Like the old Blood Bowl videogame- Orcs playing football or rugby just makes sense. I could also see them loving theatrical wrestling and stuff like American Gladiator and Ninja Warrior.
Dwarves would probably love wrestling, weight lifting, and sumo. The kinds of sports where having good strength and constitution helps and a lack of movement speed doesn’t hurt.
Half-elves seem like they would be into dating shows and reality TV. Things where people have to guess if others are lying.
Halflings get cooking shows. Maybe also gardening and home improvement.
Tieflings watch sitcoms, standup comics, and horror movies. They also watch reality TV with the half-elves.
Dragonborn don’t watch cable TV. They watch twitch streamers and YouTubers. Big e-sports enthusiasts too.
Elves get baseball.
Elves get baseball.
But prefer the original sport: cricket because not stopping for meals is barbaric
Oooooh that’s a great call. Yachting and rallying are also good ones for elves.
Tiefling TV has one show: Daria. That’s it.
I think this tweet is assuming W40k Orks actually. But if you add in Rugby and Ninja Warrior that about convers it yeah
Dwarves would probably love wrestling, weight lifting, and sumo. The kinds of sports where having good strength and constitution helps and a lack of movement speed doesn’t hurt.
I know it’s kind of a trope, but elements of the Scottish Highland Games would be a good match here. Caber toss and stone lifting come to mind.
During Yuletide, the Dwarf channel just shows a nicely roaring forge 24/7 for ambiance.
I feel like MythBusters and Top Gear would more be a gnome thing
Hobbit TV would be mostly food and drink shows, then one or two good dramas at prime time.
Lots of baking competition shows like the Great British Bake Off but for every Hobbit city.
That and a show about genealogy. I didn’t know how you make a show about family trees but hobbits could. It would be long and boring for everyone but hobbits. Most popular show by far

Oh, something like this?
I wonder who would be the hobbit Gordon Ramsay.
No self respecting hobbit would ever not know their own genealogy.
I had this thought too. But then, they can revel in them or predict future matches?
Maybe it’s a competition show where there’s a from memory head to head genealogy tree against the actuals.
“He doesn’t know his own cousins! Hahhahahha.”
advertisements start playing. Samwise Gamgee’s Potatoes jingle
“Oh, better fetch another flagon so I don’t miss anything.”
That’s some good old fashioned hobbit fun.
As someone who practically lived like a Hobbit through the pandemic, this was basically my entire TV viewing experience. 10/10 would quarantine at Bag End again.
I feel like the Gnomes would be watching Mythbusters and top gear over the Orcs. They’d also get how it’s made & junkyard wars.
Hmm. Tinker Gnomes?
Ooh, let’s do obscure races!
Aarakockra: GoPro footage, mosty from parachuting and hang gliding.
Drow: Femdom focused BDSM porn.
Duregar: Those YT channels that show terrible conditions in 3rd world mines.
Kuo-Toa: Documentaries on the religions of Amazonian tribes.
Lamia: Readings of ancient Babylonian, Sumerian and Egyptian texts.
Githyanki: Django unchained on repeat
Flumphs: Galavant
Everyone needs to watch Galavant
elf tv all the way. at least you know your shows ain’t getting cancelled on a 2nd season cliffhanger.
But each of the 300 shows is only a season long
But each episode is a max 10 minutes worth of script stretched to an hour through excruciatingly slow acting, overuse of slow motion, annoying reaction shots, and 2-3 segments per episode where a character watches the landscape all sad-like while a song plays in its entirety.
Halfing TV sounds excellent
Orc TV as a palette cleanser between runs of Halfling TV that you’re devastated there isn’t more of that show to watch
Today I learned that I am an Orc
I’ll take a combo package of orc and fairy channels
Damn I would watch Dwarf TV all day…
