This is excellent. Is "Mutt" his travelling name, like "Strider?" So his real name might be something like Airaborne, son of Arathorn?

Perhaps, but whoever wrote that did indicate that "Mutt" had been living in a rather secluded place for some time, so it's probably just a silly comic name.The Wobbit A Parody wrote:Forest Shepherd wrote:

On another note, Gimli should really be crying in that picture. Unless, of course, he enjoys seeing his forefathers ridiculed.

that sums it up beautifully. LOTR Dwarves look like Dwarves.
The Hobbit Dwarves look like glossy cartoon figures with a few hot guys sprinkled in. Only Balin looks the part. Actually Balin is the ONLY character in the films I actually like, and thats not withstanding the dodgy bit in Rivendell where he is nasty to Elrond.

That's exactly my gripe as well. In the Hobbit they all pretty much look human.
I'm not sure I was a big fan of the desing of the dwarfs in the LotRs but at least it was consistent and markedly different from the other races.

A LotRs inspired sketch from Thank God You're Here starring Ross Noble.
(The concept of the program is the comedian goes in unprepeared, and have to react spontaniously to the other actors prepeared lines.)

Why did he loose? Is it because he said one of the actor's names?? But absolutely hilarious!

Well, I'm glad you guys liked it. As I really like Ross Noble.
I'm often surprised how good he is at improv for a stand up, but he does say he pretty much does all his standup sans script as well.
If you are refering to the klaxon, Tin. I think that's just something the producers use when they feel the sketch has reached a suitable conclusion, or the actor makes a particulary choice line which works well as an end to the sketch. So nothing to do with loosing.
