Hulu is good for current season, NetFlix for past seasons.  I'd go with 
a streaming box like AppleTV or Roku.   Many of the cable channels can 
stream to these devices using your cable subscription, except Comcast 
which can stream to mobile devices but not Roku, they only allow AppleTV.

I actually watch TV in the garage using a 9 inch android tablet.  I made 
a stand and have a pair of computer speakers.  I also use the speakers 
with an older MP3 player.
