One Step Beyond

I thought I'd seen every cool show ever - until I discovered maybe the coolest one of all - One Step Beyond! This show aired for 3 years and premiered in 1959 - 9 months before the similar Twilight Zone. Being a huge fan of Rod Serling and the Twilight Zone, I was shocked to find out that Serling seemingly stole his whole routine from OSB. This show is very similar to the Zone - many of the same actors - but unique in that all the stories are based on real paranormal occurances. The show touches on a slew of weirdly cool topics from premonitions of disaster to spirit walk-ins to falls from the sky. There's one great episode where the host, John Newland, takes psychedelic mushrooms and trips on air!

I found a 50 episode set at Walmart for $5 - and Netflix also has a 12 disc set. A must see for any fan of the paranormal and all things cool.

  1. I just took an incredible trip down memory lane. I'd forgotten that show ever existed. Thank you.

  2. Hey you're welcome. I've been loving watching them for the first time. They should definitely remake that one.
