In 2 screen mode on a mac how can I maximize a window and still work in the other one?

I have a hookup to my TV and I would like to watch videos on my TV while working on the other screen on my laptop, but whenever I maximize something in my TV window, if I do anything on my laptop window it clicks out of full screen mode. Is there any way to fix this?

Update:

Mostly the videos I want to watch are internet videos--episodes on nbc, hulu, etc.

    if you're using idvd, you can change the setting , which i believe it's under preferences. There's a option where it states stay in full screen mode when idvd is not active. Check that option and you should be fine.
