Standard analog TV transmits 525 lines, 262.5 lines interlaced at 60Hz. In other words, one frame is scanned twice, interlacing the lines. This prevents flicker. If all 525 lines were scanned at 30 frames per second, the you would have light flicker. Another example is a light bulb in your house, at 60Hz it looks like it's on constantly, but at 30Hz you see the flicker. That's why television is interlaced. Some larger TV's average the image between lines to give more lines of resolution, over 700. Digital TV, I believe will give twice the number of lines 1050. However, it will also give much more accurate colors and lines, making the picture almost as good as looking out a window.
