First off, S-Video or Composite Video (RCA) can only handle analog TV 
resolutions. If you think you are having a hard time working at 1024x768, try 
to imagine being limited to 640x480, and interlaced at that. To get higher 
resolutions, try to figure out a way to hook it up via DVI or HDMI.

I don't know anything about that particular TV or graphics card, but at 65" I 
would assume that the television in question is a "Full HD" 1080p model. In 
that case you should be able to run it at 1920x1080, the same resolution as the 
the current 21.5" iMac and very readable with a nice big work area, assuming 
the graphics card can handle resolutions that high. Also, whatever the 
resolution of the television, I would recommend using the native resolution 
(1920x1080 for 1080p, 1280x720 for 720p, and in between for other TVs. In 
general, just the highest resolution available) because then the television 
won't need to resize the pixels and it will produce the sharpest image, solving 
your blurry screen problem.
