Yes, household power supplies are generally alternating current, whereas cells produce direct current.

Of course they are are designed to run on a domestic power supply, but the first thing that happens inside the set, is that it is converted to DC.

It is then reduced to lower voltages using inverters, to run the semiconductors of the circuits.

Electronic circuits need DC at low voltages to work.

TV sets that work off batteries and/or car power supplies, can dispense with the Inverters, as this is already at a more suitable voltage.
