Depends on what speakers you have

Most of todays speakers are of the wide dispersion (low directivity) type which generate all sorts of problems. The reflection from the wall behind the speakers is the one that arrives first after the direct sound and may cause comb-filtering effects, hence coloration. A TV set placed between the speakers may have similar effects, to be verified by comparing sound with vs sound without TV. If you don't hear a difference, there's no problem to be dealt with.

There are however, speakers which have high directivity and start to become directional quite early (see pic) and those are to be preferred IMO for acoustically difficult situations.
