Commonwealth United Entertainment (generally referred to as Commonwealth United; abbreviated as CUE), formerly known as Television Enterprises Corporation (abbreviated as TEC), was an American film & TV production and distribution company active to 1971. It was headed by Milton T. Raynor.

The company was sometimes considered one of the "instant majors" of the late 1960s. Its parent company briefly operated a record label, Commonwealth United Records (abbreviated as CUR), as well as a TV production & distribution company, Commonwealth United Television (abbreviated as CUT). It produced films through its in-house film studio, Commonwealth United Productions (abbreviated as CUP), which would eventually become Commonwealth United Pictures (abbreviated as CUP).
