My Blue Heaven is a 1950 Technicolor musical film directed by Henry Koster and starring Betty Grable and Dan Dailey.

Kitty Moran (Betty Grable), a radio star, finds out she is pregnant. After she miscarries, Kitty and her husband Jack (Dan Dailey) move their show to television and become determined to adopt a baby.

My Blue Heaven was the third film that Grable and Dailey made together, the first two being Mother Wore Tights in 1947 and When My Baby Smiles at Me in 1948. They later co-starred in a fourth, Call Me Mister (1951).

My Blue Heaven marked the film debut of musical star Mitzi Gaynor.

Grable was reluctant to make the film. She only agreed to do it if Lamar Trotti rewrote the script and Henry Koster replaced Claude Binyon as director.

My Blue Heaven was presented on Lux Radio Theatre February 25, 1952. The one-hour adaptation featured Grable and Dailey in their roles from the film.

Jane Wyatt and Elinor Donahue later starred in the TV show Father Knows Best 1954-1960
