I currently have a MacBook Pro 17" 2009 model and will be purchasing the new 27" screen for it. Is it possible for me to watch/connect dish network to it. If so how? Also is it possible for me to connect an XBOX and Wii to it as well. If so, how? Thanks

One of these products should work for watching TV on your Mac:

Elgato products

As far as the Xbox or Wii (and playing them on your Mac)...I'm not so sure this can be done.

One of the main reasons why it's a no for the Xbox/PS3 on the Elgato or other similar PVR is there there is a delay and when playing a game that would not work at all. It's fine with TV/Dish, but the delay would make you loose every game.
