This series was originally called “Alcoa Presents” . The name was changed when it went into syndication. It aired about 1959 to 1960 I believe. I was a big fan of the series back then. Thanks for posting these episodes.
Yes . . . and (as I've said elsewhere) I think the generic "Alcoa Presents" title is one reason that OSB never developed the widespread social recognition and pop status that the "The Twilight Zone" series came to have. The phrase "One Step Beyond" never got a chance to become a catchphrase in every day life. Example: Your wife says something emotional or convoluted (?) "I think you've gone 'One Step Beyond" with that, Susan" . . . never happened.
" I'm sixty two years old now. This series was exceptional, absolutely my favorite television series. Thankyou for re- kindling fond memories of watching OSB, every week, as a little girl with my beloved grandma. I will continue watching episodes. "
Kathryn Hensley I saw these one I was tiny and the was completely amazed by it ...even then. Years later I put on my own cable TV show....”ALEXANDRA’S PSYCHIC EYE” a (for 14 yrs) a weekly show exploring the PARANORMAL. It’s all TRUE!!! -ALEXANDRA💜✨🕊
To 'rekindle fond memories' & to post them here for others to read, for me its almost as though you've provided a snap shot picture to your past. I'd never seen this programme before.
@@weepingwillow-ud6xl : these are all new to me also. When it first aired, my parents and us kids lived up in the mountains of PA (I used to refer to them as alps, because they were very high up and we lived in a very remote area) and they had no TV then.
This show was outstanding than Twilight Zone. They were different. I truly loved both composers of these shows. OSB by Harry Lubin and Bernaed Herrmann TZ. Thanks for this episode that I never saw (from 976-CREOLEMAN).
I love this show! How come I’ve never see this before? I’ve seen all of twilight zone, Orson wells Vincent Price but never this! Thank you! It’s amazing!
i prefer OSB to it's rival programmes such as "The Outer Limits" &" The Twilight Zone". They are bizarre, weird fiction; products of an author's strange imaginings. One Step Beyond is based on true life incidents.
I would like to see the episode about the old man in Mexico who was talking to an American tourist in an old church who was strangled to death by a long dead Conquistador’s spirit. They arrested the tourist and found out he couldn’t have done it after a casting of the man’s throat found the hand had encompassed his entire throat middle finger meeting thumb in the back
Very good episode. I rarely pick up on anything that didn’t go as planned- errors, etc. When the general slaps the lady across the face, I heard the slap slightly after he had struck her (to be certain, I replayed it), not a big deal.
As a child these episodes of OSB, would scare me to death. Being child #3 out of 6 we would frighten each other merely by hiding and popping out when least expected. To this day I am a true sci-fi fan and are intrigued by the paranormal and other”unworldly” occurrences. Thank you for sharing your time and energy so that we are able to enjoy these treasures.
This was the best of the big 3 television shows at that time. They were this One Step Beyond, The Outer Limits and The Taillight Zone. Great TV back then when I was a kid.
Definitely! I also loved Alfred Hitchcock Presents and the "Hour " which was on right after Twilight Zone on Friday nights. I was a kid and loved that I was allowed to stay up late on Fridays and watch with my parents
The outdoor shot of the "chateau" which is supposed to be located outside of Paris is really a castle in Spain located in the town of Segovia. Madrid to Segovia makes a great day trip. Go if you get the chance. To those who have been you know what I mean.
Wow, I was only two-years old when this series first aired. But along with the Twilight Zone, and the Outer Limits, it helped mold/shape my childhood fears and imagination!
Thanks! I remember these as a child and they kind of creep'ed me out then, even though I wouldn't miss one when my folks let me watch them. Haven't seen one in years, Thanks for the upload!
+Cliff Yablonski: Yes and no. Some are definitely historical fact: Lincoln, the Titanic, the Hood, Hawaii earthquake. In several episodes the actual people involved are interviewed as part of the episode. You can see a list on our website: one-step-beyond.info/episodes-search-1.html . The best one is: one-step-beyond.info/episode-3-26.html .
The building depicted at the beginning is actually the `Alcazar' near Segovia in central Spain. Nothing to do with France! Unt zat general is (was) our very own Andre Morell...
Having had premonitions and visions in the past has caused a lot of people to think there was something very strange going. There are many senses we have, just need to understand and appreciate our gifts. Praise The Lord!!!!!!!!!
Really enjoying watching these again! Much thanks for sharing them with us.... I have a hard time understanding why the TV show producers of today can’t use the formula for One Step Beyond and create something as worth watching as these are! Creative writers and good, sometimes great acting, seem to be the main ingredients which makes spending bazillions of dollars on sets/costumes/effects unnecessary! I dunno. Seems doable again. I guess Black Mirror is close, but I’m thinking more about a series for regular TV channels. Maybe someday. The math is there waiting...
I think the issue is simply that the sensibility of today's society is not the same as that of the 1950s. You couldn't find people who think and feel and act the way people did . . . in order to write and produce these episodes. And then there wouldn't be the equivalent people . . . to watch them. That may sound a truism, but it's actually more profound than it maybe seems at first consideration . . .
Thank you for uploading these incredible episodes. I recalled being scared when I was a kid despite falling asleep through most of them. In part because they were scheduled past 9pm Eastern Standard Time in Florida. However, you really feel that Karma is related to some of these episodes or destiny on others. Thanks again!
I enjoy hearing people talk about childhood experience of OSB. Sometimes I think I'd like to write a book of people's reminiscences and call it "How 'One Step Beyond' Changed My Life" . . .
I really like that film ‘Frequency’!! It is a very well made and very suspenseful movie. I like it so much, that I bought the DVD. Both Dennis Quaid and Jim Cavilezel (as father and son) did superb work. The way that one change in the past, brought instant change in the future/present time.
@19:09 "... of the FRANKFURTER MORGENZEITUNG" ("morning paper"). Nice attempt at authenticity, but there never existed such a newspaper. In the 1860s (sic), there was a FRANKFURTER ZEITUNG which, after a partially turbulent history, in the late 1940s became the FRANKFURTER ALLGEMEINE - ZEITUNG FÜR DEUTSCHLAND, together with the New York Times and the London Times ranking among the best daily newspapers worldwide. After WWII, there have been a relatively short-lived FRANKFURTER NACHTAUSGABE ("night edition") and a ditto. FRANKFURTER MORGENPOST ("morning post"). As to OSB: Yet another nice discovery here on YT, and thanks for the upload. So far, I only knew THE AVENGERS, with Diana Rigg and Patrick MacNee.
It was almost scary without being so. Only the actress seemed genuinely frightened by the disembodied child's voice she heard. She really communicated that fear. This supposedly French woman sounded more German to me than the Germans. But maybe that's just me. Isn't the actress actually Italian? Until she switched to a modified 18th century pompadour, her hairstyle was more 1961 than 1943. Also the couple of band members who wore glasses had thick, dark, 1960s frames instead of 1940s wire frames. Nice touch that the German general is never seen in a uniform because he goes straight from his dressing gown to his 18th century costume. Not sure why that's a nice touch except that it must have helped the wardrobe department save on giving nearly every cast member a uniform, and no doubt the fanciest would have gone to the general.
I believe the Chateau shown at the opening was actually Schloss Neuschwanstein which was built by mad King Ludwig in Bavaria. He died in 1886 before he could take up residence there. It is the same castle which was the inspiration to Walt Disney for the Castle which is at the center of Disneyland.
The top candidates for dislike would be those at the bottom of this list: czcams.com/video/IwBSsLcsCJs/video.htmlm24s. I think I could probably live without some of those episodes . . .
Thank you!! I love each episode I see, and Mr. Newland appears to have done yeoman's work, similar to what Mr. Serling did in his work with Twilight Zone -- writing and hosting. I'm curious, and don't know if anyone can answer this question, but I see that many of these were uploaded after broadcast (likely on Sci-Fi Channel?) -- does anyone know if, because of contemporary ad-time requirements, any content was cut from these?
@Gard Goldsmith: All the season 1 videos are complete at 25 minutes (because they came out on DVD). Any other video less than 25 minutes . . . is a version that was cut for syndication. Some that are 24 minutes (or so) are only missing an episode preview (as part of the prologue), following week preview (as part of the epilogue), or credits and not a part of the main story . . .
more familiar with twilight zone and the outer limits than this one...oddly enough, my mom didn't want me watching outer limits...never could figure that, she'd I watched twilight zone! alright. thanks for the half hour time travel.
"Stanley Van Beers (1911-1961) was born in London, England. He was an actor known for The Dam Busters (1955), The Scarlet Pimpernel (1955), and Late Night Final (1954) . . ."
Andre Morell played Watson against Peter Cushing's Holmes in the Hammer version of "The Hound of the Baskervilles". The sergeant, Walter Gotell played a heavy in "From Russia With Love" and then a Russian General in "They Spy Who Loved Me".
The Marquis was a treacherous man who got what he deserved. Or... Was it the Nazi Panzer General who got what he deserved? Both were put to rest. +Richard+ 🇺🇸
I don't know why your comment reminds me of it . . . but a lot of the quality of OSB is due to the fact that it had a consistent dramatic subject, a consistent director and cinematographer, a consistent host, and consistent musical composer. This is really accomplished stuff . . .
Every rose has it's thorn... Not a great episode but thanks for uploading. I can't deny I enjoyed it, despite the stereotypical characters. Did Franz Dietrich really exist to report what he experienced? Quien sabe or...Wer wisst?
Yes, I've commented elsewhere about OSB episodes with Nazi characters. 60 years after the fact . . . they too often seem stereotypical to us. But when this episode first aired, it was only 15 years after the War and was still topical, I guess . . .
My thoughts too. With the War fresh in the minds of many people at this time, is this as accurate a portrayal of a Nazi tyrant as it gets, even if it is like something out of the Sgt. Fury comics? In any event, I found him quite comical, blustering about, dressed in 1788 clothing, sporting a 1943 gun.
Doesn't this blond lady look young ,but a wiser older voice and demeanor. 'nowadays she would stupid and wacky and act childish' ready to take offence and compensation

One Step Beyond was a great show.
I especially enjoy the host, John Newland. He's just about the coolest guy ever.
This reminds of the Night Gallery based on Manly Wade Wellman's The Devil is not Mocked. Not quite the same plot, but similar elements.

This lady has 5 different accents going at once
Do you maybe have something against diversity and inclusion (?)
Remember this I think I was 9 years old and it used to scare me and my younger sisters I am so glad that you're streaming all of these 😊👍
Glad you found this channel . . .
The Avengers. How many little kids clicked on this, just for the title and thought "Wait, where's Iron Man?"
😂😂😂
This show was outstanding than Twilight Zone. They were different. I truly loved both composers of these shows. OSB by Harry Lubin and Bernaed Herrmann TZ. Thanks for this episode that I never saw (from 976-CREOLEMAN).
I had to watch based on the name and the music at the beginning sounds like captain America's theme.
Thanks for sharing. Love this😊
That castle in Spanish is called 'El Alcazar' and it's located in Spain, not France.
I love this show! How come I’ve never see this before? I’ve seen all of twilight zone, Orson wells Vincent Price but never this! Thank you! It’s amazing!

Why do so many people have to pick movies apart. Can't you just enjoy watching and stop being a critic.
Fair enough. But maybe also: "Why do so many people have to pick _comments_ apart. Can't you just enjoy reading and stop being a critic."

They have that one on the channel, it is a Mexican politician or something, though. Not sure of the name.

Woah !!!! It’s true! Wow! Thanks for pointing that out! Wonderful!
These movies are so moral and educational, i enjoy watching them even though I suffer from A.D.H.D?
I believe the Chateau shown at the opening was actually Schloss Neuschwanstein which was built by mad King Ludwig
in Bavaria. He died in 1886 before he could take up residence there.
It is the same castle which was the inspiration to Walt Disney for the Castle which is at the center of Disneyland.
Apparently it's the the Alcázar of Segovia ("Segovia Fortress") located in the city of Segovia, Spain: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alc%C3%A1zar_of_Segovia
El Alcazar. It is the month of April on a year of castles I bought back in 1992. Neuschwanstein is what Disney based their castle off of.
5:12 💀 zombie like skull face appears in her wig,right side of her wig when looking at her ,it’d be her left side
I notice it as well it is like a skull like face in her wig, wonderful wig adds more fearful environment to this chapter.
Yeah you right and what attention to details! What's. so crazy with me is that I see the same Zombie faces walking around in public. 😂
If the woman playing that part ever looked back and noticed it - She probably had trouble sleeping for the rest of her life.😱😱😱

this is ENTERTAINMENT
I don't know why your comment reminds me of it . . . but a lot of the quality of OSB is due to the fact that it had a consistent dramatic subject, a consistent director and cinematographer, a consistent host, and consistent musical composer. This is really accomplished stuff . . .
My aunt used to think these were documentaries. No one could convince her it was all fiction.

Why I'm watching TV for what on
Doesn't this blond lady look young ,but a wiser older voice and demeanor. 'nowadays she would stupid and wacky and act childish' ready to take offence and compensation
That's true here -- good observation. But OSB also has its fair share of women acting stupid, wacky, and childish --or so it seems to others . . .
opening is very much "Twilight Zone" which was first?
honey owen
ONE STEP BEYOND was 1st.
8:40 - Joe Piscapo?
NO ---this is an episode I don't believe --- believe most them but not this one
That was different! Was it true?🤷🏾♀️ 🤔 🙋🏽
Did this general actually exist..cant find him in history anywhere
I don't have any evidence one way or the other. I'd assume there is none . . . until I found some.
Haunted so it's listed
All fiction but somehow seems real. Kurt Goedel preferred fairy stories- and in some ways they are truer than the morning newspaper.

Too obvious. One knows the end at the beginning.
We could make an OSB episode about you -- you obviously have precognitive abilities . . .
Hardly. The program was simply another copy on an overdone theme.
