`周末那两天` literally means `Those two days of the weekend`, hence, Saturday and Sunday.

However, numbers in Chinese is not always real numbers.

I think `周末那两天` could mean not only **exactly** those two days of the weekend， but also **any** day of those two days, **maybe** both of them.

Therefore, `周末那两天他看电视` could mean

`He watches TV on Saturday and Sunday`

`He watched TV on those two days of the weekend`

`He (often) watches TV on weekends`

More contexts are essential to understand a sentence precisely.
