Windows includes Media Center for viewing TV.

If you have HD capable Dish reciever, you can use the Hauppauge HD PVR 250 USB. Many other USB TV Tuner sticks, but the feature you will need is NTSC (the thick coaxial cable) or Analog AV (RCA jacks) http://hauppauge.com/. Some come with IR blasters that let your computer change the channels on the Dish receiver.
