There are three reasons why a laptop screen is thinner than most television screens.
First, laptops are engineered to be as small as possible for portability. The thinner a laptop, the more attractive it is to a purchaser. Designers go to great lengths to reduce the depth. The desire for slim screens for televisions has been far less so there has been less effort to reduce the depth.
Next, laptops have all the processing electronics under the keyboard so the screen assembly is only housing the screen. A television uses the depth behind the screen for processing components such as receivers, scalers, control hardware and more. The additional circuit board all add to the depth
Finally, television displays tend to be much larger than laptops. The additional size demands different solutions to light the screen evenly. There is also a significant amount of heat generated which needs to be dissipated. Additional depth behind the screen allows heat to be removed more easily.
When television buyers begin to demand slimmer screens, manufacturers will respond with new products. The trend has already started with the use of LEDs for illumination rather than fluorescent lighting. An LED based LCD television can be half the depth of fluorescent models.
