One Step Beyond (TV-1960) TONIGHT AT

[@StefanVanHeester]

Watching this in 2024 as I ditched my tv back in 2018. Evolution of mankind does not include better entertainment as time goes by. Quite the contrary. Thank you for uploading! ✨🖖🏻

[@pamelamason3004]

My sister and I used to watch "One Step Beyond" in reruns when we were young in the early 60s. (When this episode aired in 1960, I was 3 so I think it had to be a rerun.) It was one of our favorite programs. Today I only remember 2 episodes in particular. This was the one I remember most. After watching this today, I was amazed at how well I recalled it. I lived in an area where military planes flew over all the time. I think that was why it struck a cord with me. I was probably 6 when I saw it.

[@axiomist1076]

The show ran three years :1959, 1960, 1961. Those were all original episodes. No re runs.

[@upthedownescalator630]

We live a half-mile, mile from an airport. I love to watch the planes go over. I wish so much it was military though!

[@patstokes7040]

One Step Beyond ran from January 1959 to July 1961. Only two and a half years.

This is creepy. Mass hysteria.

[@jomama5186]

Love this genre. I miss these old shows! Glad I missed enough of them to spend time enjoying catching up :)

[@MONGOOSE1ful]

The actress in this "ONE STEP BEYOND" episode is Peggy Ann Garner, who originally worked in "A TREE GROWS IN BROOKLYN" (1945) Peggy Ann Garner also guest-starred in the final episode of the ABC series "THE OUTER LIMITS" in "The Probe" with Peter Mark Richmond and Ron Hayes which aired in January 1965. she also co-starred with William Shatner in "The Project Straigas Affair" episode of NBC's "THE MAN FROM UNCLE" in 1964, and a guest-starring role in "BATMAN" ("Ring Around The Riddler") in 1967.

[@johnallen2771]

Yes, this theme song always makes me shiver. It is haunting. I believe that pregnant women do get hypersensitive. It is only natural for them to be on alert if they are going to have a baby they want to protect it. It probably comes from the beginning of our existence when danger was everywhere.

[@susanford2388]

As the saying goes feminine intuition. In former times in Salem Mass. they were treated as witches & killed. But on the note of the music i love it & the ending of that episode made me shiver too & the hairs on my arms stood up. I love the series. Hocus Pocus all over the world fun fun fun.

I've seen how many women have another kind of 6th sense.... As a really young kid i well recall my mother became so unhappy & sad from a maritime accident that involved my father. The owner of the boat had sued my father & was "going to take everything" even though it was already proven in Court he'd crossed into my father's boat's path while both were underway on the open sea. It was his boat that was lost, & not insured... I recall my mother kept saying to me how he was such a bad man that he was bothering to do this, that the cost of it all was terrible & that he was going to die because of his nastiness... & yes, the night before the Trial they found him dead from a heart attack early morning in the carpark of the local Hotel he'd been drinking at the night before.. pre-celebrating!

My mom always warned us about not doing something because things would happen. Playing cops and robbers with my brother during a thunderstorm.

My brother climbed a big tree, mom said to get out. He minutes later fell 6 feet into the street. Sent his front teeth threw his lip, and tore the bottom of his chin wide open.

Mrs. Stanton Pritchard of North Hollywood, on who's real dream Alcoa's One Step Beyond episode was based, in an article in the Independent Press Telegram of Long Beach, California in December, 1960, had another chilling accurate dream that wouldn't come true for another 8 years: in the article of 1960 she said that one of her dreams was inaccurate. She had a dream that Nixon would win and be president of the USA. In 1960, Nixon lost the election to Kennedy. But 8 years after her dream, and after the article was published with the supposed false dream, Nixon ran again and did win the White House.

And even eerier is that the numbers on the plane in this episode weren't the numbers on the plane that Jane was on about BUT were the numbers on a different plane that crashed at 7am, 29 miles from the shows crash in Signal Hill, on Oct of 1973, killing all five onboard.

The solution is a simple one: house fully insured? Good. Put all the household items into storage (1 month's cost). Take a break well away from there for at least two weeks. Result?

[@LittleKitty22]

Is it that different nowadays? Nowadays they pump everybody full of antidepressants, and if this story happened now, the doctor would be absolutely pumping her full of antidepressants, tranquilizers, anti psychotics, sleeping tablets and painkillers before "diagnosing" her with a long list of "mental illnesses". Try going to any doctor nowadays being upset - whether it's a bereavement, job loss, relationship breakdown or whatever, any of the hugely upsetting but normal tragedies that happen in life - you won't be able to leave the doctor's office without accepting a prescription for antidepressants. And if you dare to shed a few tears - well, you can only possibly have "anxiety and depression", and so you need to be medicated - because, you see, it's "not normal" to cry... Any sign of any emotion is now seen as a "sign of mental illness" and "mental instability". Nowadays, you have to be a psychopath, ie without any emotion whatsoever, to be accepted as "normal".

[@debbieedwards420]

Those were the days when doctors told the husband's that the wives were terminally ill, because they didn't think women could handle it. Stupid men

[@valerie8223]

We were, and are, still happier than the last generation. They're killing and stealing at such young ages today. They're miserable.

I hear a cricket chirpi'in after midnight and I cant sleep

[@bobbywimsy6741]

Kitchen master Don't worry it's just cowardly politicians, asleep, as usual. Crickets above, rabbits on Earth.

The creepy thing about this is, that in October of 1973, a real plane with that very number had an accident and all five occupants were killed.

With the lady having the high blood pressure and being on bedrest, sounds like she has Toxemia. I had the same thing, and was forced to stay in bed for 5 wks. Could only get up to go to the bathroom. But I heard no airplane, Good episode.

Ten bucks for this crummy hotel room!

[@dollyrama1132]

When u know it's going to happen and nobody believes u...ufff!

[@damacosmica348]

That doctor is a jerk! "She's pregnant, you know how it is"... 🤨

[@lisadiane55]

She looks a lot like the actress Jena Engstrom, had a 4 year career in guest roles in tv shows in the sixties.

The motel idea was super obvious and the script writing would have been very bad if the characters hadn't thought of it. However, they wouldn't have chosen a room with no other room over it. In fact, they'd choose to be at 12:17 in the safest place possible from a falling plane. So it was semi bad writing

[@IAmAlmightyGod]

So not only do you have the plane crashing on top of you, now you have a plane and a 2nd floor on top of you.

[@galaxysurfer1122]

The REAL spooky part of this isn't so much what happened in this story, it's what happened years later when a guy had the exact same premonitions about an airliner crashing, (TWA? I think in San Diego?) He also told authorities, and when it did happen, they at first though he was responsible. Oh, and of course, that guy wasn't pregnant...

Originally telecast on December 6, 1960.

The plane the plane, sounds like Tatoo from Fantasy island.

[@judilynn9569]

Wow. They were really persistent with insulting women at every chance!

[@haroldwilkes6608]

The "doctor's" picture in in the dictionary beside the word "supercilious"...

[@qhsperson]

"The plane! The plane!" Seems to me I've heard that somewhere before. So, problem pregnancies but she's sitting there smoking a cigarette. Ah, the good old days. The whole attitude towards pregnancy is so nonsensical. They treat it like it's an illness that makes silly little girls lose their minds. And people think this was the good old days?

[@farfle]

lmao...I thought the same thing! Don't run around barefoot, but it's okay to smoke!

[@patricknelson8929]

Very good. Wish I had thought of it....

[@philiphamill6579]

qhsperson Fantasy Island..

[@onemoremisfit]

Their car only needed a fan belt when it acted up. Those were the good old days.

[@MsJoyce31202]

I wonder did she have mental problems before? The doctor implied that when comparing how she used to act to what she was doing now.

[@truthmatters-jt5up]

i have experiences all the time, but they are almost never useful.
