Maybe the TV plug............

Maybe the TV Plug/Outlet connection is poor......

The outlet is worn and the plug fits loosely......

FIRST thing try spreading each contact on the plug......Each plug contact usually is composed of a folded contact......insert a sharp knife point between the "prong" and separate the conductor so it has some "spring" and will better contact the outlet.......
