You have to be careful. Most circuits are fused close to what their greatest legitimate draw should be. A TV could be more than the circuit can handle. If you up the fuse to handle the addition of the TV, you lose the protection for the smaller circuit. Also, you don't know how robust the wires on the circuit are and could overload them. Not likely to happen, but it might.
