You might be looking at "overscan", which all TV's do to varying degrees. Computer monitors do not do this. It's most obvious to left and right, but also top and bottom. TV's are set this way to avoid showing the control tracks/artifacts at the edges of the picture, but often the TV is not correctly adjusted.
