Are the doorbell xfmr and the ceiling fan on the same circuit? I'm wondering if there's a box where these circuits meet someplace and they accidentally were crossed?
How old is the TV? Could it have a capacitor that's "kinda" working but on the weak side?
Are there any dimmer switches that the fan and/or TV outlet might be tied into?
Have other motor loads been tried on the same circuit as the TV? (Plug a vacuum cleaner into the TV duplex and see if the same issue occurs?)
Cheap ceiling fans tend to be *noisy* when run off of external fan controllers at lower speeds (The kind that hide in the ceiling fan canopy.) but the doorbell is throwing off my theories....
Funny you should ask. I still haven't gone out there and he didn't get back to me on my questions but they did replace some receps and he claimed that the new receps fixed the problem. But then just last week he called back and said that he was mistaken, the new receps did not fix anything and he is back to square one.
Being as I'm retired and ready to take a Summer trip here soon I won't be able to visit the house for a month or so. I'm suspecting the TV is most likely over-sensitive but I plan to do some "process of elimination" testing by moving stuff around.
