Nice question and technical
Explanation:
Look, normal structure is
sub+verb+ indirect object+ direct object.
a great job==it is not an indirect object but direct object.
Sub+ verb + direct object + preposition+ indirect object.
here my tv is not an indirect object too.
So?
job and TV both are direct objects.
Structure is
Sub+verb+noun(pro) + present participle ==repairing. .
This also a common structure by The Oxford advanced learner's dictionary.
Hope it works.
