John Newland was the perfect host for this kind of show. If anyone could convince you these stories were true, he could. There’s never been anyone like him.
Rick There were several One Step Beyond episodes that were a complete retelling of the real life incident. Tidal Wave interviewed the woman from HI who was rescued by the deaf man. Signal Received interviewed the British naval officer who escaped the sinking of the Hood in WWII. Brainwave was about a real life Navy hospital corpsman who operated on the ship’s captain under the direction of a dead medical officer killed on another ship. No one can verify the final episode of the series Eyewitness in which a reporter on the Boston Globe wrote the headline story about Krakatoa in 1883 before all the other newspapers around the world knew about. That one seems to be an urban legend.
@@danielscuiry2847 These and stories like them deserve to be explored. Unfortunately such stories can no longer be verified as actually happening let alone the truth about them. Our world has become nothing but lies. We have become so go at slight of hand, optical illusions and other methods of deceit that when the truth is anything more than ordinary we automatically dismiss it. We have become much poorer for it.
@@katherinkeegan8601 Check out the Analytical Guide to One Step Beyond. The author did interview John Newland. The scripts were based on several real life stories. So an episode may have been a fictionalized story based based on one element. There were several episodes however that were retellings of a real life story: Tidal Wave, Signal Received and Brainwave were three such stories. The Peter Hurkos Story sadly was based on a hoax as Peter Hurkos himself was later outed for being a fraud. No one has yet been able to validate the last episode (Eyewitness) that a reporter for the Boston Globe (Boston Star in the story) psychically reported the destruction of Krakatoa in 1883. That story may just have been an urban myth.
@@milesalpha1 So they didn’t portray it exactly the way it happened. That’s called, “Based on a true story” or “Television”. Unless you’re saying this just never happened at all. Or that the guy they interviewed at the end was a fake. I’m not bothered by the fact that so called “true stories” have fictionalized elements. Unless you’re going for documentary history that’s basically what happens in entertainment media. And even the documentary histories sometimes get it wrong or leave out some important details - that drives knowledgeable historians crazy. But it doesn’t make it totally false. Unless I’m missing something here...🤔
“Has it ever struck you that life is all memory, except for the one present moment that goes by you so quick you hardly catch it going?”― Tennessee Williams.
Well since a blind man painted a picture directed by a ghost, that's a miracle. And since this show documents the stories that it shows, that makes it empirical. Telling the story in such a way is lyrical. So it's a lyrical empirical miracle!
THERE ARE LOTS OF STRANGE THINGS IN THIS LIFE THAT HAPPEN WHICH ARE REAL EVEN THOUGH THEY SEEM ALMOST UNBELIEVABLE. I HAVE WITNESSES SPIRITS FROM THE OTHER SIDE BY THEM GIVING THEM SIGNS SUCH AS COLD DRAFTS GOING OVER ME WHEN NO WINDOWS OR DOORS ARE OPEN, HEAVY FOOT STEPS WALKING AROUND WHEN NO ONE IS THERE AND I HAD A WITNESSES TO THE HEAVY FOOT STEPS, ALSO HEARING MY FATHERS VOICE ON THE DAY HE DIED CALLING OUT MY NAME FROM A CLOSE DISTANCE OUTSIDE A MOTEL ROOM, OBJECTS BEING PUSHED TO THE FLOOR DAY AFTER DAY AFTER I ASKED MY FATHERS SPIRIT FOR SIGNS. THERE IS ANOTHER DIMENSION I BELIEVE. THE DIMENSION OF THE DEAD THAT STILL LIVE AND STILL EXIST. PERHAPS THEY ARE WAITING TO BE REBORN.
Indeed! I just left a comment about starting to watch a different episode than this one but it opened with the words One Step Beyond then the actors were already doing whatever they were going to do but John Newland totally cut out. I have already seen this one, by the time they found the old man I already knew he was blind. Oh yeah I have history to find the first one I wanted to see but without John Newland starting it off it loses something. Hmmm maybe that's why they chose to produce it that way.
I just realized my comment should have spoiler alert but hopefully people watch it before reading the comments. I was just reading about someone finding the first thing Rod Serling ever wrote. During his hell in the Philippines WW2. I'm not sure how I found it, I didn't Google it and it wasn't in the Google discover articles. I think it was after I read an article seemingly unrelated to Rod Serling but I think it was more articles from the same publication. It sounded like it is extremely heavy and dark. If you have seen his twilight zone episodes, one Peter Falk is a revolutionary in seems like Central America, his lust for total and complete power took over once him and his friends successfully overthrew the government. Or maybe the one that young man is advised from a man hidden in the shadows and the young man has a bully pulpit and in the end the shadowy figure is Hitler and the young man had murdered his elderly friend and mentor who happened to be Jewish. I don't know what twilight zone is the scariest, perhaps the one Earth goes out of orbit.... Because that's possible. None of us wants to know what would happen if Mercury with it's erratic orbit got pulled into the Sun.
Love, love, love One Step Beyond, Twilight Zone, Outer Limits, etc. - back when a story was told without 'flash and dash' and special effects. Most the crap out today is insulting, overly sexed, cheap tricks and bloody reality shows with insipid idiots prancing around. They have replaced a good story line and actors. Thank you Pizzaflix for posting.
I agree with you all the way. These shows and the Twilight Zone along with Outer Limits were ahead of their time. Especially One Step Beyond. It was FIRST. I thought all 3 were different in their own way. The Outer Limits was more science fiction type. Sometimes the Twilight Zone could really make you think. Such great stories as well as OSB . You are right, shows today worry more about close up shots of a womans body, sexual situations, bad language , special effects to much and so on. They forget the actual story. One Step Beyond always got to me because it was based on true stories. So GREAT that we can see them here on CZcams thanks to the uploader!
@Samual Lance More like "undersexed" and completely out of touch. Don't get me wrong these shows are wonderful, however, I highly doubt separate beds were as common in reality as they were on television.
@ Samuel Lance: I also agree with your assessment of these shows. Do you realize that everything you said is also true about music today versus 30-40 years ago, in terms of talent?
I started watching One Step Beyond in 1969 at age 8. Couldn't find it anywhere until I loved to Seattle Washington in 1986 on a local TV station. Periodically, I'd find it on TV but not too often. Thank God for CZcams where I can watch every episode ever made. Love John Newland too
I'm enjoying this. I agree with the someone who said they were "fed up to the neck" with reality television. I am too. I like a lot of variety and some comedy along with some sci-fiction.
No westerns in decades either and they were better htan the garbage on TV the past many years. Shows and movies for people that have no brains is what Hollywood has put out for years.
One Step Beyond was always a favorite of mine when I was growing up. It's so good to be able to see them again! And yes, I really am old enough to remember this program. I will soon be 71 years of age! Thank you for the wonderful upload, it is greatly appreciated! I also remember a program called "Panic" which was a very good show, too! Greetings from Colorado! 3/21/2020
Whether these shows are based on reality or stories, why can’t the producers of today continue to give us more of these interesting interpretations? I’m sure by now, there are 1000’s upon 1000’s of cases that could be shared with us! Bring them on!
That’s a great question that requires us to think about our social values. When I view old movies and TV programs produced in America, Britain and France, particularly those in 1950s and 60’s, I see a more careful examination of human feeling written in the stories with quality acting performances. This is in severe contrast to what we see now and that in my shared opinion is a direct result of changed family and social values with a representative decline of morals and ethics of the human condition.
Twighlight zone,Outer limits and One step beyond....three of the greatest from the most amazing period in television history. love them all, like finding treasure. priceless.
Great storytelling at a good pace, quality acting and directing and highly entertaining. So much better then the hyper in your face tv shows and movies these days.
Haha I thought the same thing. Irritating woman, Adele was. I notice that women of that era have been portrayed as hysterical in these older films and series. I was born in '71, therefore am a child of a different era. Can someone please tell me if this portrayal is for entertainment purposes only, or was it typical of women in those days?
I’m 22 and I recently stumbled upon this show through CZcams and I really enjoy it! I grew up watching The Twilight Zone and I must say this is almost just as good. ☺️
So true. In the 50's 60's and mid 70's we had GREAT variety shows with Dean Martin, Carol Burnett, Andy Williams, Red Skelton, Jackie Gleason and much more. Variety is definitely the spice of life! As they say. And all the "reality" shows smothering what use to be great television is not a good thing at all.
^^^@Raphael Andrews .. Yeah But this Series Was Way Before The Outer Limit's and The Twilight Zone and Was Definitely an Inspiration for One Or The Both :P] .v ..
One Step Beyond preceded these shows and was way ahead of its time. You could argue that Twilight Zone and Outer Limits got their artistic inspiration from One Step Beyond.
@@danielscuiry2847 I actually looked up the dates they aired. According to sorces, the shows ran at the same time. It appears they were on different channels and may have been competing against each other.
@@katherinkeegan8601 One Step Beyond ran from 1959 to 1961 then was aired in syndication (reruns) for several more years. So yes while Twilight Zone and Outer Limits were running, One Step was in syndication well into the 1960’s on different independent and network stations. 📺
They would be proof of the supernatural if they were actual fact. However I have watched almost every episode and cannot find the remotest evidence of truth. The HMS Hood story was true in that the ship did sink and there were only three survivors. Of the three sailors featured in the episode only one survived so the story cannot be corroborated. It also happens that the third sailor also became a well know actor who was involved with the programme so his 'involvement' is tainted by vested interest and has to be taken with a pinch of salt. In another episode a Welsh bank manager was hanged for the murder of his lover. There is no such record of that ever happening, not even with different names. I believe the makers of the programme played fast and loose with the audience knowing that 99.9% did not have any sort of access to research material which would disprove them. Who could have foreseen such access to the internet at that time? There is no picture as described in the episode certainly not an acclaimed prize winning one. Nor is their any record of any such artist. Sorry to burst your bubble folks but it is simply rather good, well presented FICTION.
@@hilaryc3203 Exactly. We now have access to the internet which the makers of the programme could never have envisaged. People WANT to believe such things so it isn't hard to fool the gullible. I haven't found a grain of corroborated truth in a single episode and, believe me, I have really tried.
I always thought the stories were just a tad hokey, but really fun. It's the theme music that still gets me ... kinda like when the dentist hits a nerve ... thoroughly captivating stuff. Many thanks for these uploads!!
Niawen2011 It was typical in the 1950’s to have certain kinds of music that drew attention to a key moment. Remember, Have Gun Will Travel? Every time Paladin showed his card the same melodramatic melody always played. Or when Superman jumped into flight. It sounds totally hokey now but that was how it was done then. People ate it up 😀
If you think this old TV show has great stories and acting, you should give old time radio shows a try. "Suspense", "Escape", "Lights Out", "Inner Sanctum", "Arch Oboler's Plays", "The Whistler"...
I DO like The Whistler, but isn't it almost always about an adulterer trying to figure out how to kill their spouse? Gets kind of silly after a while, haha.
We have SXM in all our cars and I can access it in my phone, etc. - my favorite channel is Radio Classics where I get to listen to many wonderful (for the most part) shows from the 1930s on! Love the ones already mentioned plus the future ones even though they are pretty dated, and most of the comedies - most!
“The Storm,” Episode 39, Season 2, aired 21 June 1960. Lee Bergere as Joe Bernheim, Rebecca Welles as Adelle Bernheim, Danny Bravo as Juanito (as Danny Zaldivar), Ernest Sarracino, the Priest, Argentina Brunetti as Margarita Castera, Joe Dominguez as Tomas, Raoul De Leon as the Hotel Manager, Abel Franco as the Policeman in Hotel, Donald Foster as the Museum Curator, and John Newland as Himself (Host).
I've had some unusual situations which I cannot explain so to me this is thought provoking and makes you realize (for me) God in his infamous wisdom provide a door way to see what could happen if one does take heed to the warnings.
One of my all-time favorite television anthology shows .... John Newland has always been great in directing , I recommend another series that's a little like it , "The Veil" with Boris Karloff hosting tales of the unexplained .... 👍👍
What a sweet husband, yields to his wife's every whim, beck and call - an unsustainable relationship. Wait until the baby is born. She'll need an army of maids and attendants to please her. Whew!
I started to watch the rerun of this magical incredible amazing TV series in 1966, when I was seven years old. My favorite episode was of the creepy clown who appears behind a man who killed his wife. Scary
I'm sure I'm the only one in my age group who feels this way; BUT I like the whole two beds for couples they had back in these time periods. Like I'm a very light sleeper and have been on meds for insomnia since I was 24. I HATE people in my sleep bubble😅. Like you can always push the beds together but XL Twin beds can fit two adults. 😂Yet...I'm stuck moving queen beds each time I move to a new studio😂
How could the curator not know when the artist died ? He doesnt research the paintings ? They really bungled this one. It's fun to watch but that killed the reality of it.
When it says "based on true events", that means the story is not altogether entirely true and that events or situations may have been added or deleted to sensationalize the story.
dippster357 how is it a joy killer to state a fact? Anyone who believes these things are a wee bit delusional and the tales were debunked long ago. Perhaps anonymous johnson is like me, someone who has grown weary of the people who believe these stories absolutely and we shake our heads of the rampant stupidity of the human race. LOL
OK! Hilary i will give you a dare! If your not afraid here on youtube go look up about orbs and ghost also look up how to do a double mirror" that's right and it's easy to do and do it everyday make a "double mirror" i dare you!
Also, I would go here, yeah! right here on youtube Coast to Coast AM Official here you can hear about things that are happening now in 2018 listen to them while you're doing things like cooking or driving etc. you will find something you want to know more about while you listen do the "double mirror" everytime you listen! If something happens it will be afteryou have done it many times
The woman claims not to be in love with the dead painter, but it's obvious she was. Getting her husband up at 1:00 am to talk about the dead artist is just plain strange. I'm surprised her husband is going along with this.
These are pretty great stories. The only problem I have, and it's a really annoying problem is the way they portray the couples. One or the other is always whining and nearly hysterical and the other is nearly always disbelieving and dismissive. It doesn't seem to matter who's doing the whining. "Joe, I simply must! I simply must!" It really makes it hard to stomache. I mean, exactly how many times does she say "Joe" in this 26 minute period?
@@msbrowngault LOL, so I got my counter out and counted them. She says "JOE" 26 times. That's ridiculous. Can you imagine how many times total she and others said that name during rehearsals, filming, and retakes? UGH!
Ha ha .I enjoy these stories but cant compare to Breaking Bad,the Sopranos,Better Call Saul ..and I'm older But yeah women always whining and crying lol
Most ladies now would give anything to have as flat a tummy at that "pregnant" wife. I liked the outfits, however. Wish moms-to-be wouldn't wear those stretch garments.
Remember when watching TV was a real pleasure, even being frightened in a darkened room lit just by the television screen? When it's over, you all let out a sigh, switched the lights back on and laughed nervously? Classic! Nowadays you feel depressed and want to end it all after watching mindless crap. 😅
Treasures from when TV had acting, quality and professionalism! Reality shows have killed television for me
I am more eager to watch this than any new series. Just discovered this series after wanting to rewatch the old The Twilight Zone series.
especially the apprentice and celebrity apprentice.

Einstein also said imagination is more powerful than knowledge because knowledge only encompasses what is already known while imagination is boundless
And yet he didn’t believe in God. The irony

I always thought the stories were just a tad hokey, but really fun. It's the theme music that still gets me ... kinda like when the dentist hits a nerve ... thoroughly captivating stuff. Many thanks for these uploads!!
Niawen2011 It was typical in the 1950’s to have certain kinds of music that drew attention to a key moment. Remember, Have Gun Will Travel? Every time Paladin showed his card the same melodramatic melody always played. Or when Superman jumped into flight. It sounds totally hokey now but that was how it was done then. People ate it up 😀
Scary show super mind blowing
If you think this old TV show has great stories and acting, you should give old time radio shows a try. "Suspense", "Escape", "Lights Out", "Inner Sanctum", "Arch Oboler's Plays", "The Whistler"...
Inner Sanctum is good
I DO like The Whistler, but isn't it almost always about an adulterer trying to figure out how to kill their spouse? Gets kind of silly after a while, haha.
We have SXM in all our cars and I can access it in my phone, etc. - my favorite channel is Radio Classics where I get to listen to many wonderful (for the most part) shows from the 1930s on! Love the ones already mentioned plus the future ones even though they are pretty dated, and most of the comedies - most!
...brings back to cooler times, the 60s....
My favorites: One Step Beyond for TV and Suspense for radio.
The way he said la tormenta in Spanish was spot on. Good accent!
“The Storm,” Episode 39, Season 2, aired 21 June 1960. Lee Bergere as Joe Bernheim, Rebecca Welles as Adelle Bernheim, Danny Bravo as Juanito (as Danny Zaldivar), Ernest Sarracino, the Priest, Argentina Brunetti as Margarita Castera, Joe Dominguez as Tomas, Raoul De Leon as the Hotel Manager, Abel Franco as the Policeman in Hotel, Donald Foster as the Museum Curator, and John Newland as Himself (Host).
Good job, showing off how good google is.
Love these old movies thank you for keeping them alive 👍🇺🇸
The husband & wife were great together! It was funny listening to them talking to each other 🤣
This was a wonderful episode, a thrilling plot and thrilling end.
Wow, one of Pedro’s paintings won a Grand Prix...he must have been one helluva an artist! Sorry, couldn’t resist.
LOL
Seems to me that Pedro's mother knew there was a forger but she was making so much money that she didn't care
Loved to watch One Step Beyond back in the day and still like the reruns on CZcams.
Before they said he was blind I already new it❗Another great episode of "One Step Beyond" The television series no one remembers 👽
It was pretty obvious.
I've had some unusual situations which I cannot explain so to me this is thought provoking and makes you realize (for me) God in his infamous wisdom provide a door way to see what could happen if one does take heed to the warnings.
Angela Carleton infinite wisdom👌
Infamous good one. Forgive them lord they know not what they do. What state are y all from
One of my all-time favorite television anthology shows .... John Newland has always been great in directing , I recommend another series that's a little like it , "The Veil" with Boris Karloff hosting tales of the unexplained .... 👍👍
To this day the theme music called Fear makes my hair on the back of my next stand up. Creepy
What a sweet husband, yields to his wife's every whim, beck and call - an unsustainable relationship. Wait until the baby is born. She'll need an army of maids and attendants to please her. Whew!
The rifleman was another good one a lot of love great acting to and a story line proteins a point
Rod Serling did some scriptwriting on “The Rifleman.”
The husband's nonchalant line, well sweetheart, life is full of unexplained little mysteries
I believe in Miracles because I believe in God, and because I have witnessed Miracles firsthand. One person's unbelief will never change my belief🙏🏼🙌
All i can say is wow and thanks. Oldies but fun.
I started to watch the rerun of this magical incredible amazing TV series in 1966, when I was seven years old. My favorite episode was of the creepy clown who appears behind a man who killed his wife. Scary
Enjoyed this episode each time I viewed it!!!
In lockdown and binge watching these brilliant stories thank you 😊
Nice story ! With fine actors. Thank you.
Happy Easter Pizza! I hope you are doing well during this crazy time. Thanks for keeping us entertained with all of these shows and movies.
Enjoyed watching this.
I'm sure I'm the only one in my age group who feels this way; BUT I like the whole two beds for couples they had back in these time periods. Like I'm a very light sleeper and have been on meds for insomnia since I was 24. I HATE people in my sleep bubble😅. Like you can always push the beds together but XL Twin beds can fit two adults. 😂Yet...I'm stuck moving queen beds each time I move to a new studio😂
That music could make Mr. Rogers scary
Love this series about the paranormal.
Reality television sucks this is so much better thank you for uploading
Rebecca Welles reminds me of the 1960s version of Cindy Crawford. Beautiful lady!
You know it’s the 1950’s or early 1960’s when they have separate sleeping 😴 beds 🛌
How could the curator not know when the artist died ? He doesnt research the paintings ? They really bungled this one. It's fun to watch but that killed the reality of it.
axiomist Well that’s one of the shortcomings of television isn’t it?
The whole village benefits from it. This is a really nice story.
They disrespected the cash cow of the village. Out they go!
When it says "based on true events", that means the story is not altogether entirely true and that events or situations may have been added or deleted to sensationalize the story.
Thank you Mr. Joy killer lol! I see your still killing joy where ever you go lol!
dippster357 how is it a joy killer to state a fact? Anyone who believes these things are a wee bit delusional and the tales were debunked long ago. Perhaps anonymous johnson is like me, someone who has grown weary of the people who believe these stories absolutely and we shake our heads of the rampant stupidity of the human race. LOL
OK! Hilary i will give you a dare! If your not afraid here on youtube go look up about orbs and ghost also look up how to do a double mirror" that's right and it's easy to do and do it everyday make a "double mirror" i dare you!
Also, I would go here, yeah! right here on youtube Coast to Coast AM Official here you can hear about things that are happening now in 2018 listen to them while you're doing things like cooking or driving etc. you will find something you want to know more about while you listen do the "double mirror" everytime you listen! If something happens it will be afteryou have done it many times
A dare? Are you 12?
Thank you for the free video 👍
“We’re you in love with Pedro?”
LOUD SIGH
Yes yes I am, you’re just the side piece.
Take her there. You know the crap will not stop until you do. Make your life as easy as you can.
Masterpiece show such as this one has been replaced by boGus reality shows
Rebecca's maturity screams late 40's to 50 yo; she was only 32. A definite hottie.
This was the second episode of OSB I ever watched. The first was the Haunted U-Boat
"For the Love of Mike" 2:30
Shows that are generally nonsense, but filled with such atmosphere and great acting that they are hard to not watch!
The woman claims not to be in love with the dead painter, but it's obvious she was. Getting her husband up at 1:00 am to talk about the dead artist
is just plain strange. I'm surprised her husband is going along with this.
thank you
Honey I Love You and I Love Myself! Lol I need to say that more :D
Please keep them coming!
I think it was a miracle, How could a blind man from birth paint a perfect picture with out help from above ? 🤷🏾♀️ 🙏🏾 👏🏾🙋🏽
Lol
Forget the blind aspect--how could a newborn paint something *close* to that?
Pizza Thanku for posting
Thanks for watchin'
Harry Lubin Orchestra theme music "Fear" and background during the episode "Weird". Check it out. Best TV series music ever.
That was beautiful - faith, in Jesus name!
ditto" amen.¥🐟
Ten minutes in and I am still waiting for a storm.
It is THE NAME OF THE PAINTING...
OSB always so so good!!
Holy crap for just a moment she got in the bed with him
Why did couples sleep in separate beds back then??
They probably didn't. They just couldn't show a couple on TV in bed together.
This happened more than once, hence the baby.
😂😂
Lol but she still had one foot on the floor lol
Awesome 👍
Joe played Abraham Lincoln in Star Trek.
These are pretty great stories. The only problem I have, and it's a really annoying problem is the way they portray the couples. One or the other is always whining and nearly hysterical and the other is nearly always disbelieving and dismissive. It doesn't seem to matter who's doing the whining. "Joe, I simply must! I simply must!" It really makes it hard to stomache. I mean, exactly how many times does she say "Joe" in this 26 minute period?
😅
@@msbrowngault LOL, so I got my counter out and counted them. She says "JOE" 26 times. That's ridiculous. Can you imagine how many times total she and others said that name during rehearsals, filming, and retakes? UGH!
Ha ha .I enjoy these stories but cant compare to Breaking Bad,the Sopranos,Better Call Saul ..and I'm older
But yeah women always whining and crying lol
@Toni - One : Jeez, if you really dislike it why not find a different show ?
Pedro is alive.
vote for Pedro!
amazing..if it is true...a miracle for sure
Our heavenly physician..His miracle working power.¥🐟
@@christinamacneal6187 hahahaha
If the story is True ...and that's a BIG IF, then surely it was a miracle that a blind man could paint such a painting.
Sigh
I work with the visually impaired. It's truly amazing what they can paint.
Thank you for the upload.😊😉
Watching from NSW Australia
A better miracle if would have been the blind man receiving his sight.
Hey god s busy putting the fix in the hockey playoffs. He can t do it all at once
Gosh. They were in bed together. I thought only the Flintstones were allowed to do that back then.
I believe in miracles, but this one didn't sell.
"No, it's fine. Just like home." That's because it's the same set, rearranged.😊
friday, 100 degrees..st.louis,mo. smokin` hot...watchin` cool movies with "pizza flix"
I'm asking you, can life det any better, huh?
amen, just need me a pizza!
Good show. They don't make them like this anymore!
This one is just like Night Gallery
I Believe in Miracles!!! 😇
Most ladies now would give anything to have as flat a tummy at that "pregnant" wife. I liked the outfits, however. Wish moms-to-be wouldn't wear those stretch garments.
Remember when watching TV was a real pleasure, even being frightened in a darkened room lit just by the television screen? When it's over, you all let out a sigh, switched the lights back on and laughed nervously? Classic! Nowadays you feel depressed and want to end it all after watching mindless crap. 😅
I wish someone would produce a modern day version of this show
