adam savage would not be a bad orc name

[-] runner_g 5 points 4 days ago

Half Orc Artificer named Adam the Savage.

[-] RememberTheApollo_@lemmy.world 27 points 5 days ago

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.

[-] domdanial@reddthat.com 18 points 5 days ago

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.

[-] krooklochurm@lemmy.ca 9 points 5 days ago

This except people die, like all the time.

[-] Rozz@lemmy.sdf.org 5 points 5 days ago

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

[-] Dagnet@lemmy.world 12 points 5 days ago

I'd say goblin TV would be mostly Jackass all day, with them trying the stunts themselves while watching

[-] dumples@midwest.social 2 points 4 days ago

Goblin TV: The trashiest reality TV and nature documentaries about slime molds, swamps and mushrooms

[-] PeriodicallyPedantic@lemmy.ca 5 points 4 days ago

Why do I want to subscribe to orc TV? Sounds so good.

Can we throw in junkyard wars / scrapheap challenge?

[-] MercuryGenisus@lemmy.world 5 points 4 days ago

Damn I would watch Dwarf TV all day..

[-] Protoknuckles@lemmy.world 16 points 5 days ago

During Yuletide, the Dwarf channel just shows a nicely roaring forge 24/7 for ambiance.

[-] paultimate14@lemmy.world 15 points 5 days ago

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.

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.

[-] okwhateverdude@lemmy.world 13 points 5 days ago

Elves get baseball.

But prefer the original sport: cricket because not stopping for meals is barbaric

[-] paultimate14@lemmy.world 5 points 5 days ago

Oooooh that's a great call. Yachting and rallying are also good ones for elves.

[-] Zoomboingding@lemmy.world 2 points 4 days ago

I think this tweet is assuming W40k Orks actually. But if you add in Rugby and Ninja Warrior that about convers it yeah

[-] krooklochurm@lemmy.ca 2 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago)

Tiefling TV has one show: Daria. That's it.

[-] lime@feddit.nu 4 points 4 days ago

kobold tv is all scrapheap challenge and dragon's den

[-] Mic_Check_One_Two@reddthat.com 5 points 4 days ago

Junkyard Wars and BattleBots at the same time. The robots have to be made out of scrap and beat the opponent while completing a specific task.

[-] ouRKaoS@lemmy.today 9 points 5 days ago

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.

[-] elephantium@lemmy.world 1 points 5 days ago

Hmm. Tinker Gnomes?

[-] edgemaster72@lemmy.world 7 points 4 days ago

Orc TV as a palette cleanser between runs of Halfling TV that you're devastated there isn't more of that show to watch

[-] relativestranger@feddit.nl 9 points 5 days ago

elf tv all the way. at least you know your shows ain't getting cancelled on a 2nd season cliffhanger.

[-] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 4 points 5 days ago

But each of the 300 shows is only a season long

[-] herrvogel@lemmy.world 2 points 4 days ago

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.

[-] WolfLink@sh.itjust.works 8 points 5 days ago

Halfing TV sounds excellent

[-] Frostbeard@lemmy.world 3 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

I am an half Orc, half dwarf

[-] njm1314@lemmy.world 7 points 5 days ago

I feel like MythBusters and Top Gear would more be a gnome thing

[-] dumples@midwest.social 2 points 4 days ago

I think both dwarves and halfing would love architecture shows. A fantasy version of grand designs would be epic

[-] skulblaka@sh.itjust.works 6 points 5 days ago

Today I learned that I am an Orc

[-] Sunsofold@lemmings.world 5 points 5 days ago

You accidentally turn it to the True Fae Channel. You find yourself, essentially, in the 'Joan is Awful' episode of Black Mirror, but instead of going to the company HQ, you cycle between genres of horror movie while an otherworldly laughter echoes behind all of your screams.

[-] Mirshe@lemmy.world 2 points 5 days ago

Occasionally, you find yourself in the commercials from Supernatural's "Changing Channels."

[-] CaptSatelliteJack@lemy.lol 5 points 5 days ago

I'll take a combo package of orc and fairy channels

[-] b_tr3e@feddit.org 4 points 5 days ago

Is GnomeTV < 3.0?

[-] bizarroland@lemmy.world 3 points 5 days ago

I think I would randomly flip through the channels from time to time, but mostly I would either be watching the elf TV or the halfling TV.
