your macbook has a mini-dvi port so perhaps you can use this adapter:

You'll need a Mini-DVI (Not Mini DisplayPort) adapter and a cable from that to your TV. Here's the various types of Mini-DVI adapters on Amazon.com http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=min i-dvi&x=9&y=13
