I have a 27" TV on my desk, and as of right now my 17" LCD monitor is way off to the left of the desk because I was worried that being next to the TV, the picture would get messed up. I know putting a CRT next to the TV screws it up, but my question is, does the same thing happen to an LCD?

LCD next to TV

I can't say for sure but CRT monitors and TVs will cause interference with the picture since they have magnets at the point of the tube but LCDs use a thin panel of pixels which is given brightness from the light sourcee so a LCD monitor will work fine next to a CRT TV

No. Magnetic fields generated by a CRT (or speakers too) will not affect a LCD monitor.
