Well, lets skip my usual advice about dumping TV entirely 8-).
I suspect you are in for some serious shopping for this. As a  
possiblity, you might consider looking for an unfinished  
furniture store in your area. I've been very happy with the  
dining room table we bought unfinished some twenty odd years  
ago, and learned to hate the china cabinet we bought at the same  
time. You might get lucky...
