Why would it work on my little TV and not the better ones?
It could be an HDCP issue. HDCP is High-bandwidth digital Content Protection. Your newer TVs might be blocking the signal from your cable box. When was the last time you got an upgraded box?
It could obviously be something else. I don't know much about cable boxes so it's hard to even know where to start. I would make sure the settings are displaying the highest quality signal possible. 1080p/1080i.

I would try this. When I used the Comcast cable modems, they would get buggy every few years. A trade in at the Comcast office would fix it. You may get the same experience by trading cable boxes.

Change the resolution setting in the box .. if it has a resolution that the TV can't support (think older stuff) .. then no picture.
Factory (hard) reset if possible.
