I used to use Avia. It worked wonders, but you'll never be able to calibrate your TV to level that a professional will. As I understand it the most important part (in general) of calibration is greyscale calibration, which is almost impossible to get right without some rather expensive monitoring equipment.

Also be aware than almost any calibration is going to leave your TV darker than most people are accustomed to. 99% of TVs are configured to "pop" and grab your attention, at the expense of some of the finer details and color accuracy. Once your eyes adjust to a calibrated set, everything else looks terrible.
