A lot of the fuzziness of TVs vs. PC monitors was down to the poor signaling (RF modulators, composite video). Some lucky/picky folks had TVs with component video (YPbPr) which produced images about as good as VGA monitors (RGB).

However, CRTs do not have fixed pixel geometries, and even when they produced relatively sharp images, they would seem fuzzier or softer in a side-by-side comparison with an LCD of the same size and resolution.
