Just a comment to add to the mix.

While your TV may have a larger screen, it is actually a lower resolution display than all but the cheapest monitors.

That is, unless you have a HDTV.

For a standard TV;
Refresh rate is fixed at 55 Hz.
Vertical resolution is fixed at 525 interleaved lines.
So, as the screen gets larger, the individual pixels get bigger.
