Cannot use 'this' keyword in an object because it is inside another function

Lig*_*iga 5 javascript vue.js

I am using vue.js in this case but I guess it would apply in plain JS too. The problem is that when I am in a function that is in another function I am having to call variables by their full path like - Object.variable instead of this.variable. Is there a way to use this.timer, this.pages instead of TVComponent.pages etc.

const TVComponent = new Vue ({
el: '.tvContent',

data:
{
    current_page: 0,
    timer: 0,
    pages: [
      { page: '/', interval: 10 },
      { page: 'tv/calls', interval: 10 },
      { page: 'tv/general', interval: 10 }
    ]
},

methods:
{
  tvTimer()
  {
     setInterval(function() {
        TVComponent.timer++;

        if (TVComponent.timer == TVComponent.pages[TVComponent.current_page].interval) {
           console.log('it is time!!');
        }

        console.log(TVComponent.pages[TVComponent.current_page].page);
     }, 1000);
  },
})
