I have a 55gal fish tank on a retro tv cabinet, do you think its strong enough to support weight?

The weight of water alone is 545lbs (247.5kg)
add to that the glass tank of 100lbs (45.5kg)
& you have 645lbs (293kg).

Quite substantial before you put a saftey factor of 2 on it. So the answer to you question is no, unless the TV it supported is anywhere near that! Even then I would worry about supporting the tanks base & overal stability.
If you Google "55 Gallon Fish Tank Ideas" and look for the eHows site on it, you may be able to adapt it with the addition of breeze blocks. I hope this works for you as I love the idea of fish in TV!
