One Step Beyond (TV-1960) THE STORM S2E39 

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.

Hey J is Scoobysmom and the rest of what you said should read as "and i'm taking the rest of you with me! LOL!

@@Not-TheOne The Twilight Zone is on Dailymotion.com.

+Susan Ryan, thank you

He also stressed the importance of the answer to the question « Do you think the Universe is friendly? » for it determines the quality of your life.

Einstein also said imagination is more powerful than knowledge because knowledge only encompasses what is already known while imagination is boundless

Well said, indeed!

I totally agree adrian 100 percent

Adrian Wheeler just a lot of murders thrown in lol

Only thing is the corny acting.

Too timid to show a married couple sharing the same bed. Sometimes the old ways of storytelling weren't the best

Dang!! 73 yrs here, and that's one of the creepiest true observations I've ever heard.

Yes I believe this. We are God's memory

@@brunettelatina3966What does that even mean?

​@@brunettelatina3966Don't talk nonsense. Take your meds and chill.

I'll be 71 in December ❤These are so suspenseful and well acted, two!

YOU ARE THE SAME AGE AS ME. PPL TODAY THINK THAT GRAPHICS IS ALL THAT MATTERS WITH A LOT OF GORE, VOILENCE, BLOOD, VULGAR LANGUAGE WITH NO STORY LINE.

Greetings, Friend, from Connecticut 🌸

I have researched some of the shows. The ones I did that on turned out to be true, they are not make up at all.

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...🤔

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.

He was an acquaintance of Rod Sterling

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.

Right. Love this show... and it's the beginning of this episode and I've only seen one other🤣🤣🤣

Lol I like this. Are you a dad, perchance?

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.

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 RU-vid 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.

Prancing around, LOL!!!🤣

@ 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?

Overly sexed huh? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Same here Jerri

Right. Do not watch television.

We had all three in the '60s into mid-'70s.! WTF happened?!

I feel superior by watching this, like an educated gentleman

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.

Creepy Jesus had a nerve making out fiction was fact

I agree very beautiful woman

I have a horrible crush on him

They re on tv right now. Did you see the one where kim cardassian sits on a fire hydrant and doesn t realize it

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.

Because garbage like CNN crowds off really important news, events, miracles.

They could make a story where fat Kim Kardashian sits on a motorcycle and you can’t hear the motor

That is why i am here, i dont watch TV any more, for about five years now.

Can t live with them. Can t live with em

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Typical

i laughed at that part 🤣

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?

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

Which TZ???😁

The originals (black and white version),then the early 2000s TZ with Forest Whitaker was great too!

This is a reply to a post where a person said they did not like reality TV.

immoral..Godless.¥

The creepy part is the intro by creepy jesus .

In the Catholic religion there is no sex before marriage, unless you are a priest. 😂😂😂

Heart2HeartBooks oh stop already . 🤦‍♀️🙄

It was innocent

Very good comment!

^^^@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. 📺

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!

LOL

And most were debunked decades ago, but people are still gullible.

And they are very well executed, too... hold your attention and often surprise you in the end.

Proof of Supernatural because Hollywood said so you're a moron

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.

Good job, showing off how good google is.

It was pretty obvious.

Rod Serling did some scriptwriting on “The Rifleman.”

Angela Carleton infinite wisdom👌

Infamous good one. Forgive them lord they know not what they do. What state are y all from

axiomist Well that’s one of the shortcomings of television isn’t it?

Thanks for watchin'

ditto" amen.¥🐟

It is THE NAME OF THE PAINTING...

Lol

Forget the blind aspect--how could a newborn paint something *close* to that?

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?

vote for Pedro!

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

😅

@@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 ?

Our heavenly physician..His miracle working power.¥🐟

@@christinamacneal6187 hahahaha

I'm asking you, can life det any better, huh?

amen, just need me a pizza!

Sigh

I work with the visually impaired. It's truly amazing what they can paint.

Hey god s busy putting the fix in the hockey playoffs. He can t do it all at once
