Blue Thunder is a 1984 ABC television series based on the movie of the same title featuring the Blue Thunder helicopter. The series uses the converted Aérospatiale Gazelle helicopter and large portions of stock footage from the 1983 film.

The series was canceled by ABC after they felt the similar Airwolf on CBS would win the ratings battle.
