  • Blue Thunder (titulada El Trueno Azul en España y Relámpago Azul en Hispanoamérica) fue una serie de televisión de 1984 de la cadena de televisión estadounidense ABC. La serie, que se basaba en la película del mismo título (estrenada en 1983), usaba tanto el helicóptero Aérospatiale SA 341 Gazelle (convenientemente adaptado para la ficción de la película y de la serie) como un gran número de planos de la película de 1983. Como apoyo al helicóptero aparecía en cada episodio una unidad móvil en tierra, el trueno rodante, que no aparecía en la película. Se trataba de una gran furgoneta que en su interior transportaba un vehículo todo terreno con camuflaje para desierto. El reparto de la serie incluía a James Farentino, Dana Carvey y los antiguos jugadores profesionales de fútbol americano Bubba Smith y Dick Butkus. La serie fue cancelada por la ABC tras el estreno de otra serie similar, Airwolf, del canal CBS, que consiguió una mayor audiencia. En su primera emisión de episodios en Estados Unidos, Blue Thunder fue emitida los viernes por la noche a la vez que la CBS ponía en pantalla la serie Dallas, por la que también fue derrotada en materia de atención de audiencia. Se realizaron once episodios de Blue Thunder antes de que la serie fuera cancelada. (es)

  • Tuono blu (titolo originale Blue Thunder) è un telefilm di genere avventuroso con elementi fantascientifici prodotto nel 1984 per un totale di 11 episodi.

Nel telefilm si perde la connotazione politica, diventando un telefilm d'azione. (it)
