I often face the same problem. Depending on the base font size, lowering screen resolution can help, for example 19xx to 12xx. For some games, there is nothing to do but getting closer to the TV. As DrHouse said, it is not related to TV or GPU, it is a per game design matter.

Lower the resolution to 720p, or get a monitor. PC gaming on a TV isn't so great compared to a monitor, at least for me. When I used to use a TV, the sharpness was horrible making things hard to read and see. So I always had to zoom in, and when gaming had to use 720p instead of 1080p. Once I bought a monitor, things were much easier to see.

To switch to 720p in-game, go to the video settings. Under resolution select "1280x720". To switch the desktop resolution to 720p, if you're using Windows: Start-> Control Panel-> Appearance and Personalisation-> Display-> Adjust Screen Resolution. Then select "1280x720".

You only need to switch the setting in the game.
Also, the resolution probably won't fit your screen correctly. So you should go into the nVidia Control Panel/AMD Catalyst Control Centre depending on your GPU make, and play about with the overscan/underscan slider until everything fits right.
