The one that stands out in my mind right now in the complete episode of the Big Bang theory where they found one of the actual rings used in the film. It was epic/hilarious

OMG - yes That episode was soooo funny

Other than that... lets see...

Does a brand of cookies that's called 'Hobbits' count?


Cookies (I think those were around way before the movies):


Spoof (It says: If Sauron had won... Mordor-Cookies with Hobbits):

With the ring I think it was "The Precious Fragmentation".

They had a lot of hilarious quotes in that one f.ex.
Leonard: It should go back to Peter Jackson. He made the movies; it belongs to him.
Wolowitz: Fine, he can have it back -- as long as he promises to make me a hobbit in his next movie.
Raj: There are no Jewish hobbits.
Wolowitz: Clearly, you've never been to my house for dinner on Rosh Hashana.

What in the heck was I watching the other day? They made a reference to hobbits and hairy feet. I don't think it was Being Human but I think that's the only thing I've watched recently. Hmmmm

The Big Bang Theory: Every couple of days I find myself saying 'That's how we role in the Shine'. My mom has no idea what I mean
