Nothing special about them and I'd be shocked if you don't already have the BNC cable with all the test gear you've told us about.

But before worrying about connecting any signal to the Bugeye, get your CRT sorted out. You don't need any video signal to get a raster.
I got the TV to give a proper raster but now I've hooked up the TV Analyst to the TV through the Video IF input and it showed the test pattern like it was supposed to but the linearity is way off (the top of the test pattern is really scrunched down and the bottom is normal looking), and when I try to adjust that the screen goes blank and I can't get the screen to come back up.
I figured out the ion trap, it was just stuck in place because it hadn't been moved in years.

Another weird thing is that even adjusting the ion trap there's still a dark spot on the top of the screen when I adjust the linearity and height adjustments.

And yes I did have the correct connectors for this thing, the same connectors I used for my signal generator is the same connector that TV Analyst uses (BNC to alligator clip leads.)
