Лайм Стрит: Тағдыры трагедияға ұшыраған сериал

Lime Street is an American action/drama series that aired on the ABC television network during the 1985 television season. The series was created by Linda Bloodworth Thomason, who also served as executive producer alongside husband Harry Thomason, and series star Robert Wagner.

James Culver (Robert Wagner), a widower, raises his two daughters, Elizabeth (Samantha Smith) and Margaret Ann (Maia Brewton) with his father, Henry (Lew Ayres), and investigates insurance cases with the British Edward Wingate (John Standing).

The cast of Lime Street included veteran Hollywood star Robert Wagner and Samantha Smith. Smith, a schoolgirl in Manchester, Maine, had written then Soviet premier Yuri Andropov a letter asking him whether he was truly desirous of a nuclear war with the United States, as she had heard suggested by some. He wrote her a reply stating that he was not, and then invited her to visit the Soviet Union; the event, which was followed by media in both countries and elsewhere around the world, gained her fame. Two versions exist of how Smith was cast into the show: one story states that she had caught the attention of Bloodworth Thomason in early 1985 when the latter's brother in law spotted her on a talk show and suggested that she might fit the role of the elder daughter in the series, at that time known as J. G. Culver. Another suggests that Wagner, who had first seen her on The Tonight Show, called her up, asking her to audition for the role. Three episodes and the pilot had been shot when Smith was killed on August 25, 1985, in the crash of a small plane belonging to Bar Harbor Airlines. Auditions were held instead for a new character, another daughter to Wagner's character, but the notion was entirely dropped. The plan had been for Smith's character, Elizabeth, to live on off screen, moving to Paris to be with her divorced mother. The show was subsequently dedicated to Smith's memory. There was genuine praise for Smith's talents and acting ability in the few episodes she had completed. John Leonard of New York said " Samantha was wonderful—gawky but sincere, life loving, a saint with bangs "

However, the series had trouble finding much of an audience, mainly due to competition from NBC's The Golden Girls (a top ten hit) and 227 (top 20), both also debuting that same season. However, three then unaired episodes were shown on the Lifetime network in 1987.
