If you consider the concept of TV as the invention of it, then credit goes to GERMANY, deutschland 1884
If you consider the first actual working specimen showing transmission of LIVE STILL IMAGES then FRANCE in 1909 gets the credit.
If you consider the first actual working specimen showing transmission of LIVE MOVING IMAGES, then credit goes to ENGLAND (Scottish engineer though) in 1923.
If you mean the electronic TV, then USA 1927 / 1929
The invention in the sense of the concept and that such a thing could become a reality, the credit goes to GERMANY, Deutschland. Designs and patents for electro-mechanical television systems had been proposed as early as 1884 by German student Paul Gottlieb Nipkow but never built;
A workable version of a STATIC IMAGE TV television, ie- a still picture, system (what we would now call a "scanner") was demonstrated in 1909 in FRANCE by scientists Fornier and Rignoux. It used moving parts instead of a strictly electronic image.
In England, a Scottish engineer, using the moving-parts technology, took it a step further and created the world's first working television that produced MOVING IMAGES, in Hastings, ENGLAND in 1923.
In the good old USA, Philo Farnsworth took it further. His first demonstration of electronic image, moving image television was in 1927 but by 1929 he had eliminated the moving parts of the Fornier and Rignoux 1909 system and Baird's 1923 system) and USA's Farnsworth demonstrated the first fully electronic system.
