Most don't; some do!

Most televisions have no motor; the picture display is controlled entirely electronically. But some earlier rear-projection, large-screen, CRT TVs did use a rotating color wheel, timed with light pulses, to display colors. And the color wheel is used in one of the very newest technologies, the DLP system, in single-chip DLP projectors. These TVs do have an electric motor to spin that color wheel.

You might think that older CRT (tube-type) televisions might use a motor-driven fan for cooling, but they rely only on venting and convection to keep components from overheating.

The current in an electric motor comes from?

Power plants (fueled by elements) produce the electrical energy that circuits to an outlet that you can charge an electric motor with a plug that is wired to an electric motor. Or if it is a vehicle with an electric motor, you electrically charge car batteries that produce the current to the electric motor.
