There are a couple of ways to watch Worlds on TV via your livestream. I figured I would start a thread on here describing the easy ways and answering any technical questions anyone might have.
The way I am doing it (and recommend to everyone) is if you have an AppleTV and a newer Mac Laptop with Mountain Lion. You can mirror your screen to your AppleTV once you have the stream going on your screen and watch it with full sound on your TV! Here is the help article from Apple.
About AirPlay Mirroring in OS X Mountain Lion
You can also do this from your mobile device (aka iPhone, iPod, iPad). You can mirror to an AppleTV as well, but you are going to have to 'give up' the phone while streaming it.
Using AirPlay
You can save $25 bucks by doing it this way, but honestly I don't think it is worth the hassle if you have the Mac laptop.
If you want to do it with a PC you are most likely going to need a laptop with an HDMI out or they have wireless beaming (but it isn't as user friendly: ITC Chronicles: Wirelessly Display Windows 8 to the Big Screen ). I would recommend doing the HDMI cable. I can answer some questions on it here, but its just not as intuitive as Apple.
