Is there another time he can watch TV? If that's literally the only time he can, I'd respect his time with that. If there's lots of other times he can...well...he should kind of stop that. He has options.

I'm not good at relationship-conflict-resolution, which is a big part of what's going on here. I have ideas as to what you can do as an individual:

• Silicone Earplugs are great, you can rewash them so they don't get nasty with frequent use. I bought something like these: https://www.amazon.com/BeautyMood-Silicone-Earplugs-Swimmers-Comfortable/dp/B01GNXCO0Q/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid=1520044438&sr=8-5&keywords=silicone+earplugs and can't hear a thing with them in.
  
• TV too bright? Wear sunglasses indoors.
  
• Try to plan your morning routine around being away from the TV. Literally take everything you need to get ready, or as much as you can, and set it up so you can get ready without being near the TV at all.
  
  That's about all the advice I have though, sorry. :(

For better protection, go dual-layer (ear plugs plus ear defenders). For the plugs I find this style the best (https://www.amazon.com/BeautyMood-Silicone-Earplugs-Swimmers-Comfortable/dp/B01GNXCO0Q/) if you want to go disposable.
