(Shameless copycat thread? Pfft, I say!)
Let's say that, for whatever reason, PJ's LOTR trilogy never takes off. He finds another project dearer to his heart, New Line has cold feet (chumps!), whatever.
2012 rolls around and, seeing how well received Game of Thrones (we'll assume that it still gets made pretty much identically to OTL's version, even though I suppose you could argue it only happened because of LOTR's success) is, a brave, and money-loving, network takes a gamble and adapts Lord of the Rings as a sequence of three miniseries.
Who would you tap to write and direct it? Casting? What network would best air it? Go!
