How many joules do I need?

I want to get a surge protector for my tv, dvd player, computer and printer. How do I figure out how many joules I will need?

The number of joules the suppressor is rated for refers to how large a surge it can suppress, not the number of devices that can be protected. The answer to your question depends on the likely source of any surges. Any standard suppressor should be enough to power all the devices you list. The level of protection is independent of what is being protected.
