One Step Beyond (TV-1959) EMERGENCY ONLY S1E3

Mind-bending series hosted by John Newland, your guide to the unknown! Based on true, supernatural events that defy scientific explanation, this show appeals to fans of The Twilight Zone and The Outer Limits.
EMERGENCY ONLY: Coming out of a hypnotic trance, Ellen Larrabee predicts a dangerous train trip for a skeptical witness.

OSB is, I think, far superior to the other programmes you mentioned...in my humble opinion...because they are fictional & very strange fiction at that. One Step Beyond is, as the narrator says, based on "human record".

You guys, there's still good television, you've just got to search harder for it. And don't forget, when OSB and TZ were on the air, you also had shows like Hazel and Mister Ed. Even Rod Serling, when he was doing TZ, referred to the television landscape as a "vast wasteland!" My problem with television today isn't so much the trash. There's been trash television since 1947. My problem is with the morons running the networks today, who don't give shows a chance to find an audience. Far too many good shows are being cancelled after half a season because they weren't "instant" ratings hit!

One Step Beyond reminds me of The Twilight Zone, one of my favorite shows of all time. I've seen every episode of The Twilight Zone as I purchased a collector's edition and still have most of them on VHS! I'm looking forward to digging my heels into One Step Beyond. They just don't make shows like this anymore. Thank you Pizza Flix! I love your channel. 🎬👏🏻🍕

I grew up on at the age of 9 "Tales From The Crypt", "Tales From The Darkside" shows like that, the "Count duckula" 80's cartoon and more.

You should also try " Science Fiction Theater ", when I was a kid that theme music would always bring me running.

[@darkness3308]

I to love the Twilight Zone. I also have the complete series collectors edition on DVD. Must have seen it a dozen times throughout my life. I even collected the magazine when I was young, still have a few stashed away. I discovered "One Step Beyond" quite awhile ago and at first found it hard to get into cause I was such a die hard TZ fan. But eventually came around because I needed to fill the void with something similar. This genre is too fascinating to not enjoy. In recent years I was on the search for other similar shows, of course there was "The Outer Limits" which was quite good. Also found a series called "Thriller" with Boris Karloff narrating, which was also good. And again found another series with Boris Karloff called "The Veil" which was also good. Perhaps I think they're good because that's all we have left. They don't make these type shows anymore, might as well enjoy the oldies. Hope you have some luck finding these and hope you enjoy them as well.

Unfortunately, I didn't have as nice a traveling companion as this guy did. On the plus side, my trip was not eventful as his was.

I liked the part where, in the end, John Newman would offer theories of how it happened. I haven't watched the other episodes yet but this episode has a really clear picture for such an old tv show. Wish they would make a new series with more recently strange events since these were made.

[@williamanthony9090]

Omega0401- Yeah, they could start out by retelling that story of the car in the river in Utah a few years ago, where the EMS people claimed they heard the driver calling for help, only to discover she'd been dead for hours! (They found her baby alive, though, just before the water closed in over her car seat.) Unfortunately, like the original series, they'd quickly run out of "true" stories, and have to rely on urban legends.

Yes, binge on all the wonder and glory as you journey to The Outer Limits (I mean of course) One Step Beyond. The first episode of TOL I saw happened to be season one epi one and woah it freaked me out a bit at the tender age of five even as it fascinated me. I found One Step Beyond like a soothing bubble bath next to The Outer Limits and The Twilight Zone, both of which had several episodes that warped my fragile young mind. But they were also highly educational, introducing we younger viewers to important concepts in a wide variety of areas from science to social psychology to politics (especially given that these shows were produced during the Cold War) and much much more. But most of all, wow, they were entertaining.

[@williamanthony9090]

The music used to scare me into panic attacks! Even as a teenager I couldn't handle hearing it. As an adult I finally trained myself out of the irrational fear it produced in me. What I find interesting are the number of people who also comment on the music. What is it exactly that causes such a reaction with some of us? After a bit of research I found that the name of the piece is "Weird," and it was first introduced on The Loretta Young Show. Later it was picked up by the producers of One Step Beyond.

@@axiomist1076 I believe you. My brother who is both diabetic and disabled collapsed behind his front door. This was just after Christmas last year. He lives about 150 miles away on his own and we phone regularly and his kids go and visit as well. We tried in early January phoning him over the weekend but we could not get an answer, but that is not unusual as Mike is a poor sleeper at night, and often naps during the day. By Sunday night my mother who is 94 got really worried and said, 'I feel something is amiss.' She went to make herself a cup of tea and as she was standing by the sink she said she distinctively heard my brother's voice whispering, 'Mum, Mum.' Cut a long story short. His children were also worried about Mike and they went around to his flat but could not get in as Mike's body was blocking the doorway. They called the paramedics and police and eventually managed to get him out of the way. He was unconscious (diabetic coma) and he spent nearly 3 weeks in hospital fighting pneumonia and other complications. So these types of phenomena do happen.

Wow!!! These classics are unbeatable and physiologically thought-provoking. I LOVE IT!!

[@ghostownaproach]

Back in around 1972/3 Summer they showed Twilight Zone then this show right after every night around midnight and our dad let us stay up to watch. Great memories

[@msbrowngault]

Do you remember Rod Serling "Sixth Sense"?

[@ka9vmp]

@@msbrowngault I forgot about that one.

[@davidvincent6149]

@@msbrowngault It was later repackaged under "The Night Gallery" series.

[@genkatqltr737]

Enjoyed very much! Great to see a happy ending for a change. Thanks for posting.

[@antonmoric1469]

I remember as a kid that this series was one of the very few I looked forward to seeing. Even if they could be really scary!

[@hatednyc]

The "I'm Sorry" line was smooth. I'm using that

[@echoecho3108]

Yeah. This show used to freak me out. Of course, I was a kid at the time, so that may be why. It's still interesting, though. Haven't seen it since I saw it first-run, so thanx for the nostalgia trip, PizzaFlix, and thanx for sharing!

[@alecfoster4413]

buster rymes- Harry Lubin. :) He also did the music for "The Outer Limits" (TOS)

[@harrykuheim6107]

The Music creeped me out as a Kid....I instantly recognized it.

[@gregoryedgerton41]

These shows scared me to death when I was a kid. Like they really happened.

[@DarkCloudNC]

I heard about this show about 5 days ago, its crazy I've never heard of it, especially with me being a Twilight Zone/ Outer Limits fan

[@mysmirandam.6618]

Yea i wonder why for myself! I love this stuff!

[@DigitalBridge.]

One Step Beyond, The Outer Limits, and of course The Twilite Zone. All great shows!

[@Carlosdagama8]

I always loved watching the Twilight Zone and Outer limits but I have never heard of One Step Beyond. Thank God I ran into this series because it's like watching a whole new batch of brand new Twilight Zones even if it was made in the '60s .

[@bohemoth1]

I have always loved this show! I have always enjoyed going into the Twilight zone and taking that One Step Beyond into The Outer Limits!

[@williamanthony9090]

bohemoth1- When we were teenagers in the seventies, and something strange or odd would happen, we'd declare the event was One Step Beyond the Outer Limits of The Twilight Zone!

[@oldbaldfatman2766]

Feb. 2018----Thanks for the video....this is one series I've never even heard of. And a heck of a plot twist at the end. Gotta watch more now.

[@PizzaFLIX]

Thanks for watching

[@briantunzi2462]

Me Too....

[@williamanthony9090]

I don't know. I can't figure how anyone alive and watching television between, say 1965 to 1975, can't remember weekend afternoons filled with reruns of One Step Beyond, and other shows like, Thriller, Combat, Outer Limits, and Gilligan's Island. Next I'll be hearing how nobody remembers The Invaders or Wagon Train... Weird!

[@robertpetzold1620]

John Newland is so classy. Finally getting to watch all the episodes I fell asleep to as a kid. The music used to creep me out. Great show.

[@jimst.george669]

My favorite One Step Beyond-Thanks!!

[@RedTrashPanda7]

I have never heard of this show. I watched it for the first time today. I am a big fan of the original twilight zone and I'm very surprised this never came across my radar. Its a decent show!

[@juliejk4603]

Nice little twist at the end there.. Thanks for the uploads.

[@burton48]

These One Step Beyond stories are great...just great. Thanks for uploading them. They are a wonderful source of trips down Memory Lane and the display of great talent in television production.

[@juneahernauthor]

My mother loved this show. It came on too late for us kids but at breakfast table she'd recount in her dramatic way, the previous night's show. Happy to watch this old program.

[@Edward-pu1wt]

My parents loved this show. Great stuff and the haunting music really ads to the drama.

[@jimblue39]

I do not remember this series at all. At the time it was popular 1959 to 1961 I was in the service and at sea most of the time, probably why I never heard of it. Thank you for posting it is good.

[@williamanthony9090]

SlimJim- Okay, but where were you between 1967 and 1977 when every UHF station in the country used to rerun OSB to death? I'm not trying to pick you out of the crowd, I'm just trying to figure out how so many people never heard of this show. My enquiring mind is trying to figure it out.

[@MACX-eb3cn]

@@williamanthony9090 Funny, isn't it? I saw it coming on, on TV, as a kid, in the 70s [ONE STEP BEYOND - at first I thought it was BEYOND STEP ONE] and yet I never watched it. I changed the channel, or shut the TV off. Which I'd known the show was right up my alley. No one talked about it that I knew of. Maybe if it had had a different title. "Beyond your imagination", or something similar to that, then I would've watched it.

[@capatga]

Love looking at these old movie sets.

[@sfilkins2009]

I like this one! Missed it all those years ago, and just now viewed it. This was a favorite show of mine growing up!

[@jgossey2002]

Excellent episode! I am a big fan of the Twilight Zone and Outer Limits! These shows rank up there with them!

[@jorgezarate306]

Surely one of the best episodes from One step beyond especially the performance of the girl who was hipnotize in the first part of the story, Ellen Larabee played by the Marlon Brando 'sister

[@Carlparishhonda]

I remember watching one step beyond back during the 1950s.

[@freedomofspeech6095]

This was a really good episode. Thanks for downloading it. 👍

[@kimberlykasimoff1447]

So glad you let me know that you had all of these!

[@johnbgood52]

I loved this show when I was a kid. Even then, I didn't believe Newland's claim that the stories were true (and I certainly don't believe it now), but that didn't make them any less entertaining.

[@PizzaFLIX]

Thanks for watching PizzaFLIX

[@axiomist4488]

A few might be based on rumor, but things like this episode arent very rare. You just dont hear about them a lot because theyre not publicized much.

[@svhecjb]

Some of those stories were true. I looked some of them up.

[@jean6872]

You would not believe when one time I came to a country that was closed and I picked up a shadow.

[@williamanthony9090]

Most of the episodes were based on myths, urban legends, and campfire ghost stories. Even the ones that could be traced to actual events, like the episode "Tidal Wave," were found to be vastly exaggerated by the writers.

[@NihongoGuy]

That was not the ending I expected. What wonderful writing.

[@sheldonhchambliss1385]

one of my favorite TV shows in I still watch it every chance I get

[@sahirdiesh6386]

i don't believe it for the first time in years i have been able to watch a film without fixating on the fact that its all just an act and i am grateful

[@garylinehan9572]

Sure do

[@tinklvsme]

I love Pizza Fix, it's now the first one I go to for movies and now this show. It's like The Twilight Zone, I never heard of it before. Thank you for sharing this with us! 🤗 🍕📺🕑🇺🇸 WOW that was really good! 4 Stars, it would have been talked about around the water cooler back then.

[@BigScoobyFan]

I love the Twilight Zone series and this was the 1st episode I ever saw of One Step Beyond and loved it too! And I watched it here at PizzaFlix so thank you for posting this on your channel. I first learned of PizzaFlix yesterday (8.28.2019) when I searched for “And Then There Were None” movie-a great movie and story as well. Keep uploading these great classics!

[@kimandrews6106]

This is the best of the whole series, an excellent true story.

[@PizzaFLIX]

It's our most popular episode.

[@williamanthony9090]

It's a good episode, out of a show that had many fine episodes. Was it true, though? So they claimed... Most of the episodes were really based on word of mouth stories, passed on from someone who heard it from someone, who heard it from someone's neighbor, who knew someone who was there. In other words, *Urban Legends* of the day! John Newland was kind of stretching it when he said: "This story is a matter of human record." Still, it was a fun show that told compelling stories, but never really got the ratings that other shows of the time period such as, The Twilight Zone, Alfred Hitchcock Presents, or The Outer Limits, received.

[@Warthog333]

I agree. This episode (S1E3) was the best.

[@LadyAxe13]

Thank you so much for posting this! Growing up in South Africa in the 70s and 80s, we never had shows like these on TV (just "modern" ones like Quincy and CHiPs), so I am discovering all these stylish, well-written and acted episodes on KZbin now.

[@sarasunland8912]

I am and was a great fan of this show. Got to see it on original broadcast (yes, that old) I managed to even voice record a few episodes too. Some of the cases were quite provocative and I never have been able to confirm the veracity or not of them. Example; I grew up in N.J. and moved out here to the SF bay area. There was a story about Rocks that were made to fall out of the sky in Chico, Ca. There was a note sent to mayor that someone was doing this. Well I checked back in the only Chico paper I could find online which did go back to around that date, but no story on anything like that. So, it makes me wonder. My favorite and most scary story that I would like to investigate (since I am a UFOlogist) is the one about the pilot in Canada who was flying his plane and encountered the cigar shaped UFO that wound up abducting him, and they found him about a week later down in the SW US desert. He uttered something about being kidnapped before he died. The timber company that employed him supposedly had his communications on tape, where he said "it is as big as a mountain and it's coming right at me..." end of transmission. Never able to verify this but boy, is it some hell of a case that was ahead of it's time.

[@reach4thestars67]

Interesting episode. Thank you for uploading.
