Hello , this is a TV I made. But I guess it doesn't look good so I need your help to make it better.

Thanks for help

Turn it on.
If you get no reception try using antennas instead of light sabres.

What he's saying is that the antennae are way too thick, which I'd have to agree with.

I...don't really know where to start, though, other than suggesting you read http://www.pixeljoint.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=5692&PN=1 - This and http://www.pixeljoint.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=5692&PN=1 - This thread pretty thoroughly.

You got the drop-shadow pretty nicely, but as to where said shadow is located and how it casts, that would mean that the lightsource should be at the top, which it is not.

Well I read the noobtorials already. Well , about the shadow thanks for correcting. I took the lightsource wrong if we talk about the drop shadow.

Won't be added yet, k.
Beside some precision issues making a mid-century TV and omitting dials is unforgivable.

I'm looking forward to seeing how this turns out.

Anyway, the only thing that really stands out to me is the way you've shaded the legs. Look at the reference pic and notice how the lightest area is a line down the length of the leg, since it's a cone / cylinder shape. In the reference pic, the light source is on the right, so the brightest line on the legs is on the right side of the leg. You've got it opposite (light source on left, legs brighter on right).

My bad...
...thingies without knobs and buttons are still magic to me...
...understand that I had to walk 8 miles to the only TV in the village...
...ours had knobs as we were so poor :(
