I like the premise of your idea! I think you have a really creative story here that could be improved with some slight adjustments. Something immediate that stands out is that having both of the characters' arms on the tv in the beginning looks a bit awkward because this isn't a very realistic pose that someone would be in. You could show the back of the character's head here fiddling with the buttons on the tv. My other suggestion would be to push the movements of the character in the tv. His hands help to tell the story, but adding more lower body and head movement would help to bring the character to life. Additionally, I am not sure if this character rig comes with teeth, but showing the teeth during some of the lip sync would help too to make his words look more believable.
