Blue Thunder
Blue Thunder is a 1984 ABC TV show based on the movie of the same name that features the Blue Thunder helicopter. The Aérospatiale Gazelle helicopter and a lot of stock footage from the 1983 movie are used in the show. In the TV show, the helicopter was backed up by a group on the ground called "Rolling Thunder." A desert camouflage off-road vehicle was kept inside this big support van. James Farentino, Dana Carvey, and Bubba Smith and Dick Butkus, who used to play professional football, are all in the cast of the TV show. ABC ended the show because they thought that a similar show on CBS, Airwolf, would get more viewers. Also, the show was on at the same time on Friday nights as the CBS soap opera Dallas and lost. Before the show was stopped, it had 11 episodes.
