@Aera: What you say is true. Now . . . let's consider why it HAS to be true and why it's unrealistic to expect it NOT to be true. The appearance of parapsychological phenomena is inhibited by conceptual thought . . . and the main conventional alternative to conceptual thought is emotion. Therefore, stories of parapsychological phenomena are going to be disproportionately characterized by emotional situations. In turn, Women are disproportionately responsible for expressions of emotion. Since they are also disproportionately responsible for screaming as a form of that expression, if you have a show about parapsychological phenomena, you're inevitably going to have a lot of screaming Women . . . QED.
Well . . . let's just think about this for a minute. You call the chandelier removal guy. He comes out . . . and proceeds to electrocute himself because of faulty wiring in the chandelier. He leaves behind a wife and 4 children who are thrown into abject poverty. What do you say to the chandelier-phobic girl then (?)
One-Step-Beyond Id tell her to ensure they contracted a qualified electrician 😂 shutting off the power when doing anything to the wiring would be advisable 😜 I see what you’re saying though, they say the future isn’t written in stone and any changes we make can change what could have happened. I haven’t seen to the end yet but she sure is terrified but maybe she is killed by the chandelier but if she wasn’t, maybe someone had to be
This episode stuck with me all my life.....to this day I refuse to be seated or stand under a chandelier. Perhaps because I was 11 and also took ballet as this girl when I first saw this particular One Step Beyond back in the '60's.
Sure. And a corollary: If someone is afraid of being killed by a chandelier . . . don't entice, cajole, blackmail, or guilt-trip them into standing under a chandelier.
I literally needed ear plugs to get through this episode my dog was scared & my bird nervously kept flapping her wings jeez what a powerful voice this girl had ! I pity the others who acted beside her & had to bear the brunt of this super shrill voice ! 😲😲😲😱😱😱😱🥺🥺🥺🥺😣😣😣😣😣
I STILL remember this episode from 1959, when I was 14 years old...and always preferred this series even to Twilight Zone! It's a delight to find your channel, thank you...
I agree Stories are true they say n I luv paranormal ones w no reason why as this one/ alot of drama but it's funny ! Ty for ur reply I'm so happy ppl have pos energy here!!
I think the idea was that they didn't want the child developing unhealthy phobias. Seems reasonable to me -- at least in principle. I mean, where do you draw the line (?) First, it's chandeliers . . . then it's germs, crowds, and coulrophobia (although I'm personally pretty sympathetic to this last). It can be a slippery slope . . .
there were some happy episodes once in a while. i tried googling one but could not find if it was outer limits, one step beyond, twilight zone. i couldn't find anything about it at all. there was an air raid going on and everyone had to leave their homes and the streets to take cover. the only man left was deaf and he was oblivious to the danger. also an invalid woman was in her home and in distress she could not get out. even though she had given up and just whispering for help, he somehow heard her. he carried her to safety while she in turn alerted him there was an air raid. i gave up trying to find which show that was. i saw it as a kid. many of the shows stick with me. not all of them were uplifting. i don't know which show that one was on if anyone remembers. it might be on YT
In 1901 I was amazed that the chandelier was electrified and fixed to the ceiling. Normally, a chandelier was suspended on a sort of pulley with a discreet crank that would allow the chandelier to be raised and lowered to light candles or oil lamps.
@@clairephilippe9400 Beautifully set and funny comedy never ends 30 years later and we are still laughing (im 19 and im glad i came across this show last year)
@XxIron WitherxX: If you mean video quality (rather than story quality), all of the Season 1 episodes were released on DVD -- 35mm quality. All we have for season 2 and 3 are 16mm syndication prints . . .
Beverly Washing plays the little girl Lisa. She also played in Shane with Alan Ladd, and also with Loretta Young in The Loretta Young Show. Very cool….I love these movies!
@@jaimiesalid3141 That may ne true, but I don't mean the girl, I mean these exercises are not ballet. They don't look like anything similar. Just one big No!
Haha! You'd think they could have found someone who had a clue to choreograph that part. I mean, ballet was pretty basic and technique pretty bad in 1901, but an undertaker could have come up with more realistic dance steps!
God this scared me when I was little. I've always wondered where premonitions come from. 'Intuition' is merely one of many varieties of knowledge; knowledge that at one time or another in our lives, we must 'know'. We must know to survive. Interesting.
There are no coincidences I believe n I listen as nite to the best radio show from 1am til 5am n get my education n hear true stories from ppl abducted by UFOs. .. If u don't believe me look up Whitley Strieber Communion Day ! He's older n no liar
Intuition is supposed to come from your subconscious mind. I screwed up everytime I ignore it. Especially if is a person who has done me no wrong and I ignore it. That person does me wrong later; it doesn't fail.
Thank you for bringing another great episode of "One Step Beyond" to TH-cam. As a baby boomer it is a breeze of fresh air in a world of me, me, and poor programs of sex, sex, and propaganda. Enough said...God Bless the U.S.A., and all Baby Boomers. 1776
When you recognize the voices of the chandelier guy as well as the voice of the guy who just wants to eat but you don't know their name after hearing them so many times makes a bit of sadness.
Wow loving these brilliant shows just my taste .the twilight shows were good but these are amazing. Hope there are lots to watch .yippee. xxxx Linda Bellamy UK.
This one gave me nightmares. It took me many years before I could sit in a theater with a chandelier. I avoided seats nearby but never under a chandelier. I have never forgotten this show.
The theme music they played every episode haunts me to this day. Unrelated to this episode, one of my favorite John Newland quotes about time was as follows: "Man has fashioned a small cage of reality out of the chaos of unreality. Each of us lives our lives by the steady reassuring ticking of a clock. We have forgotten that the clock is man's invention. We have forgotten that tomorrow is a creation of the human mind and that there is only the constant now. John Newland, One Step Beyond.
They couldn't have gotten an actress to play (little) Lisa who actually had some dancing talent? :) Maybe they should have made her a vocalist since she has a great set of lungs. How about just don't dance under the chandelier? Love this episode...so much drama and twist ending!
I'm keeping a running tabulation. I'll put yours down as an old school vote: the girl has to get over herself (rather than the parents need to remove the chandelier) . . .
It comes to my mind that I saw this episode in 1980 in New York City the young girl will grow to be a grandma and the chandelier will fall in her granddaughter.
On the falling chandelier. My Italian uncle Lili was a doctor. He was called out on a house call very late at night. The mother of the patient was an hysterical type, always calling the doctor. My uncle tried to convince the mother it was just a touch of flu. He pointed up to the ceiling and said, "If I am lying, may I be struck dead!" The chandelier fell, narrowly missing both of them. He made the woman promise she wouldn't tell anyone, because he would have lost business.
Yes they did In fact legally husbands could still put their wives in an asylum or ‘nursing home ‘ and could call them hysterical with ‘ bad nerves ‘ if they paid enough that is to a doctor , in order to get rid of them … the wealthy ones obviously. Lord Lucan tried it with his wife before he attempted to murder her and murdered the nanny by mistake as she was a similar type physically in the dark . People forget it wasn’t that long ago women didn’t have rights like men in so many ways . That’s why we marched and protested so much in the 60s and 70s.
From the minute I started watching this I knew I had seen it years ago, but the plot was slightly different, but the ending the same. The story has stayed with me for many years.
Honestly, you'll HAVE to write Paramount or whoever owns the original films to this series. There's information about this on Amazon.com from one of the Season 1 set buyers. It can happen but people have to write the company. An online petition could help but I almost think letter-writing might work better because who's going to send 10,000 or more individual letters? Online petition would be easier to fake but it wouldn't hurt to sign one, would it?
Wow talented dancing. Looked like she was sitting on a stool spinning in circles. lol. And they just sat and watched while the chandelier slowly fell on top of her. When she woke up I understood why they would ignore her. Yikes! what a voice. That voice would have been why the little girl didn't become a famous actress when she grew up.
Wow, rich people problems...LOL. Poor 11 year old girls in 1901 would never have to worry about such things. No ballet, no crystal chandeliers, no servants...just chores and work. I’ve had some premonitions in my life that turned out to be true events, but nothing so dangerous as a chandelier falling on someone and killing them. The one I remember the most was seeing a flat tire on the family car. I told, was ridiculed, the tire went flat the next day. I never vocalized another premonition.
Yes . . . you have to keep your head down with premonitions in most societies. There are exceptions, of course: the interpreters of the Oracle of Delphi in ancient Athens, for example. It's a shame that your talent for it has had to go to waste . . .
Sophie..LOL yeah,Miss Washburn was a pretty good actress but never attained " stardom " status,The thing I most remember her for was a film called Spider Baby back in the early 60s.
Spider Baby is Very Weird,sort of Campy,it's about an Inbred family,sort of like some of the people who agrees with everything savage says....Lon Chaney Jr. is in it too .
I hadn't seen this one. Brilliant quality . Really unexpected ending. Thank you so much for sharing these episodes. 25 minutes of quality entertainment ❤
Yes, the only thing about that girl that's eleven is her face, however when I got to junior high in 75 some twelve or thirteen year old girls looked almost fully developed, so, are you really twenty three?
My father and I were watching Geraldo Rivera dig through a wall looking for Jimmy Hoffa's fortune and there was a commercial break and a news update "Stay tuned in the morning for the launch of the space shuttle with the first school teacher going in space" They showed it sitting on the launch pad with the steam coming out and all of a sudden I saw a bright flash of light blinding me. I told my father about it and said to him that I think its going to crash in the morning. He just looked at me strangely and I said "What if i'm right" He would never talk about it. His eyes would get glassy and his face pale.
We don't know what deadly germs are in the very air we breathe, but we can't very well organize our lives around such fears, can we? Apparently we can.
*I love how everyone on TV in the '50s had servants, big homes, huge cars, after-opera "snacks" which are comprised of food for 100, all of it high-end ... and just a single income!*
I first saw this episode being aired on a major network affiliate three years ago, until then I'd never heard of this show before. I'm very glad I found out about this series, I also saw an episode about an alcoholic trying to get back with his wife and children, somehow his son was trapped in an abandoned mine where apparently his wife died, then the ghost of his wife led him to the mine so he could save their son, I'm not certain if you've included that on this extensive list of episodes but I hope so
@@one-step-beyond-1959 is it to show her first death premonition at an early age dancing under chandelier? So the story can progress to her marriage, still fearful, her husband 'breaking' the fear by dancing with her under the chandelier and nothing happens! Finally the girl is now an older woman, her daughter is dancing under that chandelier when her childhood premonition turns into a prophecy fulfilled.
She probably was 14. I don't get the big deal because nobody plays the same characters age as themselves. I've seen some actors play someone's father and their the same age as their "supposed kid"
+One-Step-Beyond +One-Step-Beyond oh I'm sorry. At the end of this episode he was talking about the next episode which was about the 3 dolls. Guess it's episode 9.
i love the beautiful chandelier. i'm sorry there are such critical comments about the acting. i remember that style of acting when i was a child and teenage actress. and really-had you a scary premonition who would you behave? the young actress was directed the way she was by the director and i could see that she was making her performance real.
There truly is a deep and inexplicable love that a grandparent has for a grandchild. Maybe this can translate into an uncanny psycho-spiritual connection. I can believe that this grandmother felt her little beloved's terror even before the child came into existence.
Yes, psychic connections are generally found by research to be strongest for twins, mothers & children, and husbands & wives. If any of these have artistic talent or training . . . or a formal spiritual practice such as meditation . . . the psychic ability generally increases even more.
i was not around in the 50's, but my mom was an avid fan of these scary shows in the 60's. one episode traumatized me badly and changed me from being a carefree kid. i liked the rare happier ones where the guy and his dog die, and they don't let his dog into 'heaven'. however he kept trying other places, and found the real heaven where they let him and his dog in.
I remember seeing this years ago at about 11:30 at night in the 70s. Of course it was a repeat back then. What a great story with a freaky ending. Didn't see it coming when I saw it initially. So, so well done these shows.
Jergä Botswana-Vekklandęr I don’t think many of the elite that have ballrooms are looking for anything ‘subtle’ in the way of lighting for their mansions 😂
Let's appreciate how good the direction writing and acting here. The premise for the episode was already a well used trope but everyone nails it. Lets appreciate Beverly Washburn as young Lisa. By this episide, she is 16 and already a veteran. Pamela Lincoln is 24 playing older Lisa.
Her screaming was definitely really loud I had to keep putting the volume down because my son was sleeping right next to me but I give it to her her acting was very realistic very believable anyone who has fear of something definitely reacts like that especially a child
Warning! Loud, shriek-y child frequently hollering at the top of her lungs in this episode!
Do not watch with cat on lap!

I hadn't seen this one. Brilliant quality . Really unexpected ending. Thank you so much for sharing these episodes. 25 minutes of quality entertainment ❤
If that girl is eleven i'm 23...
😂😂😂
16, I believe
Yes, the only thing about that girl that's eleven is her face, however when I got to junior high in 75 some twelve or thirteen year old girls looked almost fully developed, so, are you really twenty three?
Ha ha that's what I thought.
I thought the same thing - she definitely looked older than eleven.
I remember watching this when very young 😊👍💯❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🇦🇺
My father and I were watching Geraldo Rivera dig through a wall looking for Jimmy Hoffa's fortune and there was a commercial break and a news update "Stay tuned in the morning for the launch of the space shuttle with the first school teacher going in space" They showed it sitting on the launch pad with the steam coming out and all of a sudden I saw a bright flash of light blinding me. I told my father about it and said to him that I think its going to crash in the morning.
He just looked at me strangely and I said "What if i'm right"
He would never talk about it. His eyes would get glassy and his face pale.
We don't know what deadly germs are in the very air we breathe, but we can't very well organize our lives around such fears, can we?
Apparently we can.
*I love how everyone on TV in the '50s had servants, big homes, huge cars, after-opera "snacks" which are comprised of food for 100, all of it high-end ... and just a single income!*
Things were cheaper back then lol
Golly.... I remember seeing this in the mid1960s.... Only remember that chandelier..... and it falling
Thank you for these old episodes. 😘
I'll be honest. I was expecting the chandelier to fall on her dad when he stood under it telling her "See".
Beautifully Spoken amazing lighting with out couler., one sees more and needs too listen louder!
Much better quality here! Great show, and many thanks!
It's pretty frustrating to think that ALL the episodes, in this 35mm quality, are sitting in a vault somewhere in southern California . . .
One-Step-Beyond
Yes, it is. These old shows need to be made available so that everybody can enjoy them in their original, clear, and audible form.
I first saw this episode being aired on a major network affiliate three years ago, until then I'd never heard of this show before. I'm very glad I found out about this series, I also saw an episode about an alcoholic trying to get back with his wife and children, somehow his son was trapped in an abandoned mine where apparently his wife died, then the ghost of his wife led him to the mine so he could save their son, I'm not certain if you've included that on this extensive list of episodes but I hope so
I think I saw the episode that you describe on TH-cam within the last two years or so.
The story is cool to watch. The acting though!! WOW!! Talk about melodrama…WOW!!
I guess removing the chandelier would not work with the plot line.
Tellement beau qu'on se laisse bercer ! Merci
Bercer par un chandelier💃
Richard Basehart.. one of the finest. Tx fan
Was there an actress who actually looked 11 and could really pass as a graceful ballet dancer?
My question: Why does she have to be eleven . . . in the first place (?)
@@one-step-beyond-1959 is it to show her first death premonition at an early age dancing under chandelier? So the story can progress to her marriage, still fearful, her husband 'breaking' the fear by dancing with her under the chandelier and nothing happens! Finally the girl is now an older woman, her daughter is dancing under that chandelier when her childhood premonition turns into a prophecy fulfilled.
@@poorthing That makes sense. But it doesn't work equally well (or well enough) . . . if she's thirteen or fourteen (?) I don't know . . .
@@one-step-beyond-1959 then...it was the writers prerogative! Ha...How's that?
She probably was 14. I don't get the big deal because nobody plays the same characters age as themselves. I've seen some actors play someone's father and their the same age as their "supposed kid"
Wow, worth seeing just for Percy Helton's minor role in this episode.
www.imdb.com/name/nm0375887/?ref_=tt_cl_t7
Percy Helton was one of the most incredible character actors who ever graced the screen and also unique!!!!!
Wow! Another great episode. I hope you have that dolls episode
Dolls episode . . . dolls episode. Can you maybe say more about it, to help identify it (?)
+One-Step-Beyond +One-Step-Beyond oh I'm sorry. At the end of this episode he was talking about the next episode which was about the 3 dolls. Guess it's episode 9.
Here it is: th-cam.com/video/3T6JrQRUlj8/w-d-xo.html
i love the beautiful chandelier. i'm sorry there are such critical comments about the acting. i remember that style of acting when i was a child and teenage actress. and really-had you a scary premonition who would you behave? the young actress was directed the way she was by the director and i could see that she was making her performance real.
I'm letting the comments run free on this video . . . even though I personally think the actress' age and shrieking are not such a big deal.
no worries
Thank you "One Step Beyond" for the link :-)
There truly is a deep and inexplicable love that a grandparent has for a grandchild. Maybe this can translate into an uncanny psycho-spiritual connection. I can believe that this grandmother felt her little beloved's terror even before the child came into existence.
Yes, psychic connections are generally found by research to be strongest for twins, mothers & children, and husbands & wives. If any of these have artistic talent or training . . . or a formal spiritual practice such as meditation . . . the psychic ability generally increases even more.
One-Step-Beyond, thanks for the response and the explanation! :-)
TheWriterWalker x
loved this tv series
I was 8yrs. When I watch these shows.
i was not around in the 50's, but my mom was an avid fan of these scary shows in the 60's. one episode traumatized me badly and changed me from being a carefree kid. i liked the rare happier ones where the guy and his dog die, and they don't let his dog into 'heaven'. however he kept trying other places, and found the real heaven where they let him and his dog in.
Surely it was Grandad off only fools and horses who made the chandelier fall!
Love thst episode
I was wondering when the doc was gonna pop out the sedatives...
Yuppppppp 😂😂😂😂😂😂💯
Give her lifetime supply
I remember seeing this years ago at about 11:30 at night in the 70s. Of course it was a repeat back then.
What a great story with a freaky ending. Didn't see it coming when I saw it initially.
So, so well done these shows.
That's the girl Wally Cleaver took out on the episode "Blind Date Committee"
In one episode of the 1960's British tv series called The Avengers there was another chandelier that from the falling view, resembled this one.
Yes, that was “Death Door”. Everyone was afraid of going through the door to a conference because they dreamt that the chandelier inside fell on them.
I have two chandeliers, I sleep under one and now I have an immortal fear of the 2 chandeliers
YOu would think that they would check the chandelier each year to make sure that it was safe. It's called maintenance.
Lisa reminds me a lot of Thora Birch.
Reminds me of Delboy, Rodney and Grandpa.
They seem wealthy, couldn't they have had it removed after all those years and something more subtle put in.
Jergä Botswana-Vekklandęr I don’t think many of the elite that have ballrooms are looking for anything ‘subtle’ in the way of lighting for their mansions 😂
I luv old movies
Some things here were not explained. Who got killed was it Lisa, or her grand-daughter, or both of them?
Let's appreciate how good the direction writing and acting here. The premise for the episode was already a well used trope but everyone nails it. Lets appreciate Beverly Washburn as young Lisa. By this episide, she is 16 and already a veteran. Pamela Lincoln is 24 playing older Lisa.
1901 is when my grandma was born. She died when I was 18. 1989.
Her screaming was definitely really loud I had to keep putting the volume down because my son was sleeping right next to me but I give it to her her acting was very realistic very believable anyone who has fear of something definitely reacts like that especially a child
Percy Helton Miracle on 34th Street (1947) as Drunken Santa Claus
Classic
When the repair man said it would take an earthquake to make the chandelier fall, I knew right away what and how it happened.
Goosebumps...
I would have had construction workers secure the chandelier to the ceiling with gorilla glue.
And tape 😊
LOVED ONE STEP BEYOND.
Am I the only one who thinks she is the oldest looking 11 year old EVER!
Sorry, but we're going to have to penalize you one point for not reading the other comments . . .
I watch this in the 60s
I hope I'll enjoy this movie
