Dear daddy, I thank you so much for these--I’m 67 and have had a hard life coupled with much illness--these movies bring back my childhood and much happier times--all of these better programs are a god-send! Thank you!
Freind ,you're like lots of us,look back and say we had the golden age of TV and radio and maybe cinema ,because its truth the TV is PC propaganda rubbish, filled with x rated filth
In 1961, when I was six years old, I was taken up into a ship, just outside Rockliffe Airbase, where we lived, in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. All these many years, the truth about these encounters has remained hidden. May disclosure happen, soon!
Twilight Zone, Outer Limits and Alfred Hitchcock presents...yep, as a kid the music alone made me scramble to the safety of the living room and my parents side.
And shows like this will never be made again. Actors today are wimps. We have to be politically correct and directors don’t have clue to good directing. When the Hollywood system died, so did art.
I am 60 years old and I remember this show as a child. Until now I have never seen it air again. Thanks so much for posting all these wonderful shows. I also love Twilight Zone and Alfred Hitchcock. Thanks again.
Born in ‘71. Don’t remember these at all. I did grow up with Twilight Zone, which I loved. When I ‘discovered’ this show, I was hooked. It’s great. I love the concept that these are based on true accountings. I only wish they gave enough detail for me to research the stories. I would be fascinated to know more about each one.. So glad these are easy & free to watch! ❤️
Born in 1970. Same. Dad and my brothers showed me Twilight Zones. Found these back in 2011. Started watching with my sons when they were younger. Good stuff.
Thank you so much for posting these shows. It brings back some super great memories of my childhood, a very special time in my life. I'm 68 now and not that healthy and it's hard for me to just get around, but when I'm watches the episodes of One Step Beyond that you posted brings me back to the 1950s with my younger sister, and our parents were still together and we were happy and couldn't wait for our favorite TV shows to come on. We had an old black and white TV and a anetene (sp). TVs hadn't been out yet until some time in the late 1940s. Our little basement apartment was cozy and warm in the winter. I've probably have bored you and your readers into a coma. Just wanted you to know how much your postings mean to me. Thanks for letting me be a happy kid again. God bless!
DaddySpyce....I'm almost 67 and I can empathize with your longing for the 'happy kid' times. I have fond memories of getting up early on Saturday morning in the 50's, and in the colder months, literally sitting on top of a small heater and watching The Adventures of Superman starring George Reeves. Then we had to grow up....LOL..!!
😀 Oh no, DaddySpyce...you are not boring us at all! I am 63 and grew up watching Superman, Lost in Space,The Twilight Zone, Outer Limits, but was too little to remember much later on. Today I watch, enjoy and get more out of these shows than I did as a child, altho I did enjoy them back then too. I only recently discovered One Step Beyond and IMO it’s better than Twilight Zone or Outer Limits b/c OSB is supposedly based on true stories. I hope they are true!! 👽👻💀
I'm much the same as you,getting old & wounds received In Vietnam causing extreme back pain ,watching these old shows takes me back to a time when ladies were ladies & men we're men .
Man is helpless against nature and natural phenomenon so mankind should coexist and live in harmony with each other. Stop all war and infighting, let's negotiate and resolve all issues in a civilized manner. Enough of blood has been shed till today. Live and let live. Amen.
I want to thank UA-cam and it's creator's(who will probably never read this) thank you very much for letting many of us older folks go back in time and relive our childhood through this wonderful invention. God bless you.
so true it makes me always question the idea of well how did it start? some of these stories before must've have really happen i believe and the government took it as its own! shrug
Wrong; this show was always ahead of its time; it still is; just only now the idiots in the military are finally admitting in other world craft;after covering it up since the beginning. I knew that over 60 years ago before this show was even a thought in anyone's mind. Many fighter pilot's planes after engaging have either been destroyed or manipulated. They finally learned you don't engage anymore; just monitor and track. They call it abduction now; and it has been going on since before man has been genetically created. Since before this planet was Terra formed and used as a lab.
Growing up to this series was awesome...except at the end when that scary music played we had (so we thought as kids) a long hallway to go down before reaching our rooms! Talk about scary!! Thank you sooo much for posting these videos love them !!!
This is one of my all-time favorite episodes of ONE STEP BEYOND! It centered around the theme of UFOs and alien abduction in a far superior way to many of the movies and television shows that came out later. No need for special effects and big-headed aliens - just tell the story outright and let it be the star of the show! :-)
These were great shows, now days most shows are foul language , nudity, sex and people love these types of show. The times have change but for me their never be greater shows like this.

I was 4 when I started watching with my dad. I was scared so bad I had nightmares! These were the scariest, then the Outer Limits, Alfred Hitchcock, The Birds! Then the Twighlight Zone. Brings back good memories with my dad who died when I was 12. He loved all this stuff. Does anyone remember, The Day The Earth Stood Still? What an oldie but goodie.😲😨 Wish that would come on You Tube.👍☺
I had this stuff fall all around my tree farm, it came down in clumps and it was all falling from one point above where nothing could be seen. One day a year later I saw in roughly the same location a shiny metallic sphere sitting still about 500' up, it looked to be 6' in diameter. I looked at it for a few seconds then zip, it shot east out of sight almost instantly.
Wow. As much as I would like to experience something like that, I know it would scare the heck out of me, maybe permanently. My parents saw something in the late 50s and reported it to the authorities. My father amassed a collection of books concerning UFOs, thereafter. He was by no means crazy. My mother believed what she saw, but never spoke about it.
In 69 at 12 years old a friend and I saw 3 cubelike objects in the sky. Moving around themselves changing color. Then zig zagging in a pattern. We ran to get her Dad. He looked at them through a rifle scope and they shot straight up out of site so fast no human could have survived it. Saw 3 again in early 80s one evening with 3 other adults. Same scenario . Light changing pulses fast impossible maneuvers accelerate and stop. Reversing. And then . Gone so fast it was a streak.
Especially due to a deliberate campaign by the gov to DISCREDIT witnesses. And the airlines, likely in obedience to the government to squelch any reports from pilots.
No: nowadays they give unskilled actors marginal scripts and call it reality TV. I pulled the plug on satellite and cable years ago and save not only money but braincells; today's "entertainment" is an insult to nominal intelligence. It might save our culture to see a widespread return of "the classics."
+Cynthia Lyman I totally agree. Im in the Uk and I dont really watch mainstream television of any sort now. I get more entertainment from what I can find on UA-cam be it Retro Tv, obscure Movies and anything inbetween. These days UA-cam is My maimstream TV.
Daev Arthur Ford im only 27 and i prefer old to new anyday...its all been done..and the creativity and story seem to become secondary to the gore etc. which is to bad.
+Daev Arthur Ford The sad thing is that we're not missing a thing, and actually gaining a lot of freedom with the ability to choose what we want to watch, when we want to watch. Hopefully others will wake up and find out so mainstream broadcasters get the message. Have a great day, and thank you for responding.
+pickford 31 Age is a number and pretty much a relative concept when you get right down to it. There is no substitute for a good story, well told. Unfortunately a lot of people have lost sight of that and use filth and shock value to conceal gaping holes in storyline and character development. The old schoolers-- many long before my time as well--were masters, plain and simple. Rarely did they take the cheap and easy way out.
Use to watch this show when I was a kid with my father, we were the only believers in the supernatural of the family, and as mentioned this show was way ahead of its time, they should bring it back, unfortunately John Newland passed on just recently, he had a way of speaking that was unique
One of actors in the "Encounter" segment of "ONE STEP BEYOND" is Micheal Forest, who made himself popular as "Apollo" in "STAR TREK"s "Who Mourns For Adonis?" in 1967. Forest also guest-starred on "THE TWILIGHT ZONE" ("Black Leather Jackets"), and "THE OUTER LIMITS" ("It Crawled Out Of The Woodwork"). He previously reprised his "Apollo" role in "STAR TREK CONTINUES", a special series unofficially made without CBS Paramount.
Michael Forest (Gerald Michael Charlebois) born 1929 and still with us at this writing did alot of work with Roger Corman and later went to Europe in the cinema.
Fantastic video. They actually address the UFO phenomenon, alien abduction and with the well known "Angel hair" associated with this UFO's.🛸 Great video.
Michael Forrest as Jacques. Damn good looking actor & my favorite episode of "Star Trek" is "Who Mourns for Adonais?" I think he is very relevant as to why it is my favorite episode--very hot Apollo! He is also in the episode "Black Leather Jackets" in "Twilight Zone".
Ahhh. Well, it's a year on (2019). I'm sitting here and I see 'Jaques' and I think: ' Yes, matey. I know that face. I don't know your name, but I know your face.' So, looks like a google hunt.... wait! Read the comments. Ahhhh. Thanks Shane. Saved me sanity! :-)
My father passed away about year and month ago. He was home alone, we didn't discover him for six days afterwards. I wish somehow could found way to say, I love you, Good Bye Dad.
This episode came out before the Betty and Barney Hill abduction, in which alien abduction entered into pop culture. Don't know why this show was only on for a few years.
It appears to be based on the Mantell case of 1948. He went after a UFO and crashed into the side of a mountain. He reportedly said the object was huge. It was spotted from the ground and the description of it was certainly that of a skyhook balloon which was top secret at the time. Mantell could never have caught it.
marsbondfire as i recall, one of these two under hypnosis drew a star chart which was not found for many years after there was better astronomy equipment. the star chart was not visible from earth without amazing seeing power. betty and barney could not have seen the stars from earth, they did not have the millions necessary to build the optics
I have personally researched many of the episodes of One Step Beyond and they are indeed FACTUAL CASES, yes it should have continued for a good long while longer than it did. It seems in those days when something had a chance of exposing truths, they denied, hid and cajoled the public into believing "No way"....something like today?
I respectfully disagree. Twilight Zone had better writers. Each episode usually had a touch of irony at the end, or the unexpected. I recently discovered this OSB, and have watched many episodes. I don't find them as entertaining as TZ. I've enjoyed a few episodes, including 'The Voice' and 'Earthquake'. Maybe OSB appeals more to those who are attracted to the supernatural or aliens.
As a child I loved this show better than TZ. The music haunted me and I would go sleep with an older brother....the strangest thing...my dad was in the US Army Korean war and he would tell us strange tales about Ramey Air Force Field (now Aguadilla Airport) in Puerto Rico....people always said it was haunted by Taino Indians.....I also understand Pres Kennedy loved OSB.....
Thank you for providing this great series for us. I think it was better than "The Twilight Zone," which I saw when it was first on tv in the late 50's into the early 60's
They tried to recreate the series WITH John Newland at the helm, in 1978's Next Step Beyond. It was a disaster -- utterly forgettable. I think OSB is a product of its time and the people who came together in that one moment to create it, and can't be duplicated. But I do agree with Bob Anderson that if it WAS revived, the music must remain the same.
Oh, for the love of - "angels' hair" looks like that ephemeral phenomenon that occurs when high water content plants are frozen in a very specific set of circumstances - no wind, slow but steady drop in temperature - it makes the water freeze into ice & extrude out of the plant in exotic & fantastic shapes - Smithsonian magazine had an article on it sometime in the past 2 years, iirc.
@@WWZenaDo I just love it when a comment from years ago is followed up by the same person same name. Much Respect! I recently changed my surname from James-Gray back to my maiden name Ryder. Just getting back to your original post, all those years ago 😂, I enjoy good general knowledge and I often find myself researching or studying something just because I want to know, because I enjoy learning new things. I love finding out that something society has deemed as "someone's imagination" or "creative retelling of events" turns out to be actual fact and provable by science. You gave me a place to begin my research, thanks again Zena ❤️🍄😋 And Happy New Year too!!
I'm 71 and I remember trying to adjust the antenna on top of the house to get these shows. Brings back some really good memories. I remember this one and it's quite accurate and that Lake Superior is in my home state of Michigan. By the way who is Miss bunny?
"Miss Bunny" was a character on a sitcom from the sixties... if I remember right, the title of the show was Gomer Pyle USMC? Pretty wacky show, but that's who she is!
Great series from the past.. Now on MeTV, you can watch Rifleman, Wagon Train, Dragnet sometimes and MASH Every evening plus Andy Griffith in May berry...AND Lawrence Welk on Sunday night!!!And I remember Cimmaron City With George Montgomery who was married to Dinah Shore at that time. And ice cream cone was 5 cents, quart of milk 27 cents, mews paper ,7 cents. But of course, wages were not very high either... But times were very genteel.. .
Anyone notice the music used (example at mark 17:15) - it is a lot like the music used later in parts of Close Encounters of the Third Kind. Interestingly, One Step Beyond used this sound throughout their series. I would not be surprised to learn that this was perhaps the influence for its use in Close Encounters of the Third Kind too. There's a scene in CETK, where Roy and Jillian flee from the 'contaminated containment town' to search the back road, where they come face-to-face with Devils Tower for the first time - it is here we hear a tiny bit of this music - not the same, but very similar in tone. We know that both Lucas and Spielberg used countless older movies as an influence for their later movie projects; from westerns to war and old Ray Harryhausen and other sci-fi creators and animators. I would say, those in movie makers who do their research of older movies first have a lot of influence to draw from and upon in all its styles, characters, and sounds. Also, there are elements of 'Fire In The Sky' references from this show to the movie and accounts too. Interestingly enough, in nearly every vintage UFO and Alien classic movie, there is a modern 'real story' account of someone claiming it happened to them; from sightings of UFOs to Aliens, to abductions to implants, and so on -- is is all 'subliminal plagiarism' or false memories, or just wild imaginations? I don't know, but too many old stories from the past too similar to modern-day stories to be believed as credible.
I've never seen this show before. Not American enough I guess. It's strange to see, 70 years later after the script was written, that we are still monkeying around with these questions and still no further down the track of supposition and theorising. - at least, the general public. What goes on behind the green door is a matter of speculation.
I've lived in the San Fernando Valley for forty years, this was fun to fantasize about. Been binge watching for days. I remember this series, but I don't....if that makes any sense!!!
One of my favorite TV shows when I was a young kid, along with Alfred Hitchcock Presents, Chiller, The Outer Limits and The Twilight Zone. T.V. today is forgettable, reality T.V. is a joke and new programs cycle through every year and are gone at the end of the year. The best T.V. series, such as those mentioned above lasted for years because they were so great...the theme music makes this T.V. show what it was
A fine collection of music from the Decca LP issued in 1959. "More Music From One Step Beyond," 20 errie new tracks never before released, will soon be coming to Amazon and elsewhere for sale at $24.95. Watch for it. It will have among its tracks cues from the television show not released in 1959 on the Decca LP and that collectors have wished released for years. It will be out perhaps in time for Halloween. This will be a licensed work and not a bootleg product. Tracks remastered.
13:00 "... the president of Siam ..." existed when Thailand was called Siam before1939 and again between 1946 and 1948. Then 15:43 we find out that "... April 15th 1953 ... and ... November 16th 1953 ..." are dates was in past. Huh? So when did this event occur? This episode of "One Step Beyond" was originally broadcast in April, 1960, 17 months before the first well-known UFO abduction case of Betty and Barney Hill (September 1961), but which didn't first make headlines in the Boston Traveller until October 25, 1965.
Also, in 1961 a Soviet mail plane - an Antov An-2P, a small transport plane - disappeared. Taking off from Sverdlovsk (Russia), it was bound for Kurgan. After flying about 128-160 km, and after the pilot has communicated with the ground control, the plane disappeared from radar. A search operation proved fruitless. But 2 days later the plane turned up in the area of Tobelak (Siberia). All the mail was intact and the motor had fuel for another 2 hours of flight and ran fine, but plane's pilot and 3 passengers were missing. (This was reported by Alberto Fenoglio in 1962, Derek Mansell in 1965) and in the Flying Saucer Review in 1967)
tapolna....the writer of the script most likely remembered Siam and just incorporated it into the script, which was also probably written between 1953-1960. This is what writers do...they draw from a lot of knowledge and information and weave stories from it and not always too concerned about strict historical or chronological order. The abduction angle was almost prophetic, but I would imagine that the writer was also familiar with the science fiction genre that had all kinds of stories about that, so he perhaps drew on that information as well. Of course, the writer could also have been a time traveller from our future and knew about Betty and Barney Hill...LOL..!!
“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.
I've always thought it was funny - almost strange - how most people think that an Airplane Pilot can and should be able to fly a helicopter. That's like saying a driver of a Volvo can also drive an 18-Wheeler. Or - better yet - a person driving a Ferrari can also drive a skate board. The fact that something flies or roles on wheels has nothing to do with one's ability to do one - thus do all. Helicopters are extremely special compared to an airplane.
So are you saying that no one could have learned to fly both? While perhaps not too many people who have a simple operators license can operation an 18-wheeler, I'm willing to bet that most people who can handle an 18-wheeler can also drive a passenger car. How else would they get to work?
Isn't that Robert Douglas in the "plaid shirt?" Remember him in the movie "The Fountainhead" when he played the critique Ellsworth Toohey? A very fine actor.

In 69 at 12 years old a friend and I saw 3 cubelike objects in the sky. Moving around themselves changing color. Then zig zagging in a pattern. We ran to get her Dad. He looked at them through a rifle scope and they shot straight up out of site so fast no human could have survived it. Saw 3 again in early 80s one evening with 3 other adults. Same scenario . Light changing pulses fast impossible maneuvers accelerate and stop. Reversing. And then . Gone so fast it was a streak.
pretty sure it fell out of Uranus
Very good early tale of alien abduction. Clearly shows the battle people have to try to convince the skeptics.
Especially due to a deliberate campaign by the gov to DISCREDIT witnesses. And the airlines, likely in obedience to the government to squelch any reports from pilots.
This is one of the best episodes. Thanks.
love this show...they def dont make them like this anymore lol
No: nowadays they give unskilled actors marginal scripts and call it reality TV. I pulled the plug on satellite and cable years ago and save not only money but braincells; today's "entertainment" is an insult to nominal intelligence. It might save our culture to see a widespread return of "the classics."
+Cynthia Lyman I totally agree. Im in the Uk and I dont really watch mainstream television of any sort now. I get more entertainment from what I can find on UA-cam be it Retro Tv, obscure Movies and anything inbetween. These days UA-cam is My maimstream TV.
Daev Arthur Ford im only 27 and i prefer old to new anyday...its all been done..and the creativity and story seem to become secondary to the gore etc. which is to bad.
+Daev Arthur Ford The sad thing is that we're not missing a thing, and actually gaining a lot of freedom with the ability to choose what we want to watch, when we want to watch. Hopefully others will wake up and find out so mainstream broadcasters get the message. Have a great day, and thank you for responding.
+pickford 31 Age is a number and pretty much a relative concept when you get right down to it. There is no substitute for a good story, well told. Unfortunately a lot of people have lost sight of that and use filth and shock value to conceal gaping holes in storyline and character development. The old schoolers-- many long before my time as well--were masters, plain and simple. Rarely did they take the cheap and easy way out.
Use to watch this show when I was a kid with my father, we were the only believers in the supernatural of the family, and as mentioned this show was way ahead of its time, they should bring it back, unfortunately John Newland passed on just recently, he had a way of speaking that was unique
Great show. I tell all my friends to watch it here on u tube.
another great episode
I love these stories! Embellished but based on fact!
Thank you Mr. Harry Lubin for your brilliant compositions for this epic show. RIP (from 976-CREOLEMAN)!
I really like this show. The new shows can not hold a candle to the old shows.
One of actors in the "Encounter" segment of "ONE STEP BEYOND" is Micheal Forest, who made himself popular as "Apollo" in "STAR TREK"s "Who Mourns For Adonis?" in 1967. Forest also guest-starred on "THE TWILIGHT ZONE" ("Black Leather Jackets"), and "THE OUTER LIMITS" ("It Crawled Out Of The Woodwork"). He previously reprised his "Apollo" role in "STAR TREK CONTINUES", a special series unofficially made without CBS Paramount.
The Apollo one stuck with me. The Bow arm shall be bare.
Michael Forest (Gerald Michael Charlebois) born 1929 and still with us at this writing did alot of work with Roger Corman and later went to Europe in the cinema.
I could watch these all night
Thank you for posting
One Step Beyond was so Far ahead of the Curve that we are Always One Step Behind trying to Evolve into Reality, what a Fantastic Show
Grateful for posting these
Fantastic video. They actually address the UFO phenomenon, alien abduction and with the well known "Angel hair" associated with this UFO's.🛸 Great video.
Love this show. Thank you.
Only watch these series to see John Newland -- GORGEOUS MAN
This is good one
Michael Forrest as Jacques. Damn good looking actor & my favorite episode of "Star Trek" is "Who Mourns for Adonais?" I think he is very relevant as to why it is my favorite episode--very hot Apollo! He is also in the episode "Black Leather Jackets" in "Twilight Zone".
Ahhh. Well, it's a year on (2019). I'm sitting here and I see 'Jaques' and I think: ' Yes, matey. I know that face. I don't know your name, but I know your face.' So, looks like a google hunt.... wait! Read the comments. Ahhhh. Thanks Shane. Saved me sanity! :-)
Forrest reprised his "Apollo" role in "Star Trek Continues"
@@silvereagle2061 He was also in Mission Impossible and many other programs..and the Dude is Still Alive!
I couldn't help notice his uncanny resemblance to the Cuomos (Chris and Andrew). Yes? No? :)
Another freaky(good) episode.
Peace
My father passed away about year and month ago. He was home alone, we didn't discover him for six days afterwards. I wish somehow could found way to say, I love you, Good Bye Dad.
This episode came out before the Betty and Barney Hill abduction, in which alien abduction entered into pop culture. Don't know why this show was only on for a few years.
It appears to be based on the Mantell case of 1948. He went after a UFO and crashed into the side of a mountain. He reportedly said the object was huge. It was spotted from the ground and the description of it was certainly that of a skyhook balloon which was top secret at the time. Mantell could never have caught it.

as i recall, one of these two under hypnosis drew a star chart which was not found for many years after there was better astronomy equipment.
the star chart was not visible from earth without amazing seeing power. betty and barney could not have seen the stars from earth, they did not have the millions necessary to build the optics
But the abduction of Benny Hill was the most
bothersome story to me, though ;)
yes, his corney comedy was funny
I have personally researched many of the episodes of One Step Beyond and they are indeed FACTUAL CASES, yes it should have continued for a good long while longer than it did. It seems in those days when something had a chance of exposing truths, they denied, hid and cajoled the public into believing "No way"....something like today?
Being a big fan of the twilight zone and all paranormal show this show and episode seem to be topping them all glade I found this
Fantastic series, thanks so much.
Thanks so much, nothing on telly at this time, I live alone, these are good company 😘
i know i've seen many of these before back in the '60s but i don't remember any of them which is kinda nice because they are all "new" to me.
One of the nice things about getting old and losing your memory is so many "new" things that you find.
Great episode!
Fantastic acting and dialogue.
We had that spider web stuff here last year on and off for about three days, thought it to be odd when we found it.
Any unexplained objects or lights seen around that time?
Great TV!
reviewing these shows I'm a little surprised the "Twilight Zone" is so much more a part of our tv history.... OSB to me is every bit as good....
I respectfully disagree. Twilight Zone had better writers. Each episode usually had a touch of irony at the end, or the unexpected. I recently discovered this OSB, and have watched many episodes. I don't find them as entertaining as TZ. I've enjoyed a few episodes, including 'The Voice' and 'Earthquake'. Maybe OSB appeals more to those who are attracted to the supernatural or aliens.
I agree with kicky
Sorry folks even though I adore "The Twilight Zone" but Gary Schultz is on the ball here, OSB was up there with the TTZ 🤗
gary schultz theses shows are based on true stories, but the Twilight zone is so much more spookie, and to me I like both,
I agreed, the one about guy trapped in the elevator, his wife has premonition but never seen who was in elevator. I remember seeing it about age 7
Victor,-I agree.Some of those shows are the BEST! ...Tony
As a child I loved this show better than TZ. The music haunted me and I would go sleep with an older brother....the strangest thing...my dad was in the US Army Korean war and he would tell us strange tales about Ramey Air Force Field (now Aguadilla Airport) in Puerto Rico....people always said it was haunted by Taino Indians.....I also understand Pres Kennedy loved OSB.....
Thank you for providing this great series for us.
I think it was better than "The Twilight Zone," which I saw when it was first on tv in the late 50's into the early 60's
They tried to recreate the series WITH John Newland at the helm, in 1978's Next Step Beyond. It was a disaster -- utterly forgettable. I think OSB is a product of its time and the people who came together in that one moment to create it, and can't be duplicated. But I do agree with Bob Anderson that if it WAS revived, the music must remain the same.
Never heard of NEXT STEP BEYOND
@@hammadoolass , Ignorant!
I agree with you. I like the original stories.
Oh, for the love of - "angels' hair" looks like that ephemeral phenomenon that occurs when high water content plants are frozen in a very specific set of circumstances - no wind, slow but steady drop in temperature - it makes the water freeze into ice & extrude out of the plant in exotic & fantastic shapes - Smithsonian magazine had an article on it sometime in the past 2 years, iirc.
Thanks for that info, I was hoping we had an explanation by now, looks like we do 😊
@@southernforestgypsy You're welcome!
@@WWZenaDo I just love it when a comment from years ago is followed up by the same person same name. Much Respect! I recently changed my surname from James-Gray back to my maiden name Ryder. Just getting back to your original post, all those years ago 😂, I enjoy good general knowledge and I often find myself researching or studying something just because I want to know, because I enjoy learning new things. I love finding out that something society has deemed as "someone's imagination" or "creative retelling of events" turns out to be actual fact and provable by science. You gave me a place to begin my research, thanks again Zena ❤️🍄😋 And Happy New Year too!!
@@southernforestgypsy Wow, thank you so much! Happy New Year to you too!
Love this episode.
I'm 71 and I remember trying to adjust the antenna on top of the house to get these shows. Brings back some really good memories. I remember this one and it's quite accurate and that Lake Superior is in my home state of Michigan. By the way who is Miss bunny?
"Miss Bunny" was a character on a sitcom from the sixties... if I remember right, the title of the show was Gomer Pyle USMC? Pretty wacky show, but that's who she is!
@@upthedownescalator630 correct
Thank you. Now 76.😊
I only ever watch these shows to see John Newland at the beginning - I LOVED THAT GUY
Jo egleton John was a classy guy I thought he was good for the show also
Great series from the past.. Now on MeTV, you can watch Rifleman, Wagon Train, Dragnet sometimes and MASH
Every evening plus Andy Griffith in May berry...AND Lawrence Welk on Sunday night!!!And I remember Cimmaron City
With George Montgomery who was married to Dinah Shore at that time.
And ice cream cone was 5 cents, quart of milk 27 cents, mews paper ,7 cents. But of course, wages were not very high either...
But times were very genteel..
.
Anyone notice the music used (example at mark 17:15) - it is a lot like the music used later in parts of Close Encounters of the Third Kind. Interestingly, One Step Beyond used this sound throughout their series. I would not be surprised to learn that this was perhaps the influence for its use in Close Encounters of the Third Kind too.
There's a scene in CETK, where Roy and Jillian flee from the 'contaminated containment town' to search the back road, where they come face-to-face with Devils Tower for the first time - it is here we hear a tiny bit of this music - not the same, but very similar in tone.
We know that both Lucas and Spielberg used countless older movies as an influence for their later movie projects; from westerns to war and old Ray Harryhausen and other sci-fi creators and animators. I would say, those in movie makers who do their research of older movies first have a lot of influence to draw from and upon in all its styles, characters, and sounds.
Also, there are elements of 'Fire In The Sky' references from this show to the movie and accounts too. Interestingly enough, in nearly every vintage UFO and Alien classic movie, there is a modern 'real story' account of someone claiming it happened to them; from sightings of UFOs to Aliens, to abductions to implants, and so on -- is is all 'subliminal plagiarism' or false memories, or just wild imaginations? I don't know, but too many old stories from the past too similar to modern-day stories to be believed as credible.
As a kid they shows would frighten the shit out of me
I've never seen this show before. Not American enough I guess. It's strange to see, 70 years later after the script was written, that we are still monkeying around with these questions and still no further down the track of supposition and theorising. - at least, the general public. What goes on behind the green door is a matter of speculation.
I've lived in the San Fernando Valley for forty years, this was fun to fantasize about. Been binge watching for days. I remember this series, but I don't....if that makes any sense!!!
One of my favorite TV shows when I was a young kid, along with Alfred Hitchcock Presents, Chiller, The Outer Limits and The Twilight Zone. T.V. today is forgettable, reality T.V. is a joke and new programs cycle through every year and are gone at the end of the year. The best T.V. series, such as those mentioned above lasted for years because they were so great...the theme music makes this T.V. show what it was
The show made the best of a low budget: John Newland made it watchable, plus the eerie music.
I was 6 yrs old when this 1st aired!!
I was not born yet I made my debut on this earth 1972 😍😍I loved these old tv shows (aka Johanna Jackson)
Excellent !
I LOVE the deep sound of the old planes! 8:19 That's why I love the old war movies
A fine collection of music from the Decca LP issued in 1959. "More Music From One Step Beyond," 20 errie new tracks never before released, will soon be coming to Amazon and elsewhere for sale at $24.95. Watch for it. It will have among its tracks cues from the television show not released in 1959 on the Decca LP and that collectors have wished released for years. It will be out perhaps in time for Halloween. This will be a licensed work and not a bootleg product. Tracks remastered.
Cool! I would love to find it. I collected old soundtracks and limit edition tv series
This episode was broadcast in certain ITV regions in the UK on Monday 28th July 1968.
ONE OF MY FAVORITES !!!!
Love love this show I think it used to also be called Alcoa Presents
The stories are amazing
Alcoa aluminum company was major sponsor of OSB in later years of series.
Mon Dieu, I think Jaques was the guy who played Apollo on Star Trek, non?
absolumentom
Dennis Middlebrooks Oui, d'accord! Je m'appelle Apollo!
Yes. Utterly gorgeous
Dennis Middlebrooks I think he was also a regular on a soap opera. As the World Turns I think.
And the oldest brother on the Twilight Zone "Black Leather Jackets"
The more I rewatch these shows, OSB, TZ, BK's Thriller, Star Trek the more I begin to realize how small the actors poll must have been.
Robert Douglas did'nt get the film roles or the recognition as an actor he really deserved
DaddySpyce. you're someone special! I could relate to you. God bless and all the best to you. ...TONY
First time I heard of this show. I'm 57.
Its extremely rare to find series. I just happen come across old dvd copy in used video store
Never knew about this episode!
That's Barbara Stuart who was married to Dick Gautier from 1967 to 1979, Gautier was known as Hymie the Robot in "Get Smart" 😊
Thanks
"Hop to it Hymie!"
Whoa I remember that robot. He was weird. I didn't know the guy was married to her though, thanks!
What sets OSB apart from series like Hitchcock and Thriller is that these stories are said to have actually happened.
Allegedly............................
When this show first aired, a soundtrack album was issued by Decca Records in both Mono and Stereo.
13:00 "... the president of Siam ..." existed when Thailand was called Siam before1939 and again between 1946 and 1948. Then 15:43 we find out that "... April 15th 1953 ... and ... November 16th 1953 ..." are dates was in past. Huh? So when did this event occur? This episode of "One Step Beyond" was originally broadcast in April, 1960, 17 months before the first well-known UFO abduction case of Betty and Barney Hill (September 1961), but which didn't first make headlines in the Boston Traveller until October 25, 1965.
Also, in 1961 a Soviet mail plane - an Antov An-2P, a small transport plane - disappeared. Taking off from Sverdlovsk (Russia), it was bound for Kurgan. After flying about 128-160 km, and after the pilot has communicated with the ground control, the plane disappeared from radar. A search operation proved fruitless. But 2 days later the plane turned up in the area of Tobelak (Siberia). All the mail was intact and the motor had fuel for another 2 hours of flight and ran fine, but plane's pilot and 3 passengers were missing. (This was reported by Alberto Fenoglio in 1962, Derek Mansell in 1965) and in the Flying Saucer Review in 1967)
tapolna....the writer of the script most likely remembered Siam and just incorporated it into the script, which was also probably written between 1953-1960. This is what writers do...they draw from a lot of knowledge and information and weave stories from it and not always too concerned about strict historical or chronological order. The abduction angle was almost prophetic, but I would imagine that the writer was also familiar with the science fiction genre that had all kinds of stories about that, so he perhaps drew on that information as well. Of course, the writer could also have been a time traveller from our future and knew about Betty and Barney Hill...LOL..!!
love this show
It's nice to know that aliens are environmentally friendly. Their residue disappears.

I was two young to watch these but thanks to internet these are the best and take me back to old stuff like 60s classic sci fi from New Zealand
Paul was one skeptical, crabass man. He was aggravating. Still a pretty good episode. 👍🏻
He was for sure an old curmudgeon.
I love this series but I find this episode very hard to make sense of.
Did you read the description at the top.
I've must have missed something. Could you enlighten me?@@susanb2015
This episode reminded me of the things I had seen. Ufos are real. From my experience, I could tell you stories which may my steps went beyond.

I've always thought it was funny - almost strange - how most people think that an Airplane Pilot can and should be able to fly a helicopter. That's like saying a driver of a Volvo can also drive an 18-Wheeler. Or - better yet - a person driving a Ferrari can also drive a skate board. The fact that something flies or roles on wheels has nothing to do with one's ability to do one - thus do all. Helicopters are extremely special compared to an airplane.
So are you saying that no one could have learned to fly both? While perhaps not too many people who have a simple operators license can operation an 18-wheeler, I'm willing to bet that most people who can handle an 18-wheeler can also drive a passenger car. How else would they get to work?

This is sooooo cool I don't know why I've never heard of this before!
How did he disappear at 1:30 HOLLYWOOD MAGIC
THIS IS GREAT!
Once you're seen this series, you will never Forget most of stories. But truly errie part most are based on documented events
Editing
glaze glaze noooo......
That was a good one
Isn't that Robert Douglas in the "plaid shirt?" Remember him in the movie "The Fountainhead" when he played the critique Ellsworth Toohey? A very fine actor.
The subtitles are for the most part better than contemporary drivel.
Great , underrated sci-fi show .
My favorite episode had to be the one about the clown , with Yvette Mimeux . Still creeps me out !
Can't watch anything with clowns
