Chopper One is a short-lived ABC action-crime television series in early 1974, depicting the activities of a fictional California police helicopter team. The program was produced by television powerhouse Spelling-Goldberg Productions. The series aired in a half-hour time slot on Thursdays at 8 p.m. Eastern.[1]
The show aired adjacent to Firehouse, an action-drama series about a Los Angeles fire station. Chopper One was cancelled after six months with Firehouse promptly ending the following month.
Story and Characters
Chopper One was directed by E.W. Swackhamer, featuring two flight police officers (a pilot and an observer) and their adventures in a police helicopter. The helicopter was a Bell 206 JetRanger. It starred Jim McMullan as Officer Don Burdick and Dirk Benedict as Officer Gil Foley. Benedict would later earn fame as Lt. Starbuck in the original 1978 TV show Battlestar Galactica and as Lt. Templeton 'Faceman' Peck in the TV show The A-Team.
Ted Hartley played their boss Capt. McKeegan and Lou Frizzell played Mitch, the crusty mechanic.
