To connect to a TV, you will need a MiniDisplay Port to HDMI adapter along with an HDMI cord. If you have a MBP from before 2010, you will also need a cable from the audio jack to the TV. If it is from 2010 or later, you don't need anything else. It would be basically the same setup for an external display, unless it's the Cinema Display from Apple which comes with all of the required cords.
