Depends what hardware you have already.

If you have a tuner card then you're after some kind of Video4Linux module
- v4l has been the standard interface for a long time.

If you have nothing yet, either look at getting the data from an on-demand
website (free, but limited choice) or look at a network box like the hd
homerun https://nicegear.nz/product/silicondust-hdhomerun-connect
This is moving more into the realm of network streams rather than video
data.   Heck you could even stream from youtube.

As for python - I can't really be much help there.   If you just want to
watch TV then both on-demand and hdhomerun products will need a modern
capable web browser, and python's not needed.
