  • Another Day Off

    ‘ I am taking the day off once again as I spent all day yesterday in the hospital with my dad.  He should be coming home today, though, so hopefully I will be able to write a new post for tomorrow.  Thanks to all of my fellow stalkers for their well wishes and kind words – they mean…

    Stuyvesant Square Park from “Sex and the City”

    ‘ At the risk of this blog becoming solely Sex and the City-based, here I am yet again with yet another locale from the hit HBO series.  For those of you non-SATC fans out there, don’t worry, I will be chronicling NYC sites from other productions soon.  I will also be interspersing New York spots…

    ‘ This past weekend I dragged my boyfriend out to stalk Pasadena’”‘”‘s newest hot spot – a little place called POP Champagne & Dessert Bar which opened its doors about three months ago.  Being that champagne is my (and my girl Marilyn’”‘”‘s) fave cocktail, I have been dying to stalk this place ever since it opened…

  • Café Figaro from “Jerry Maguire”

    Café Figaro from “Jerry Maguire”

    ‘ Today’s post is a long time in the making.  Off and on for years now I have been trying to track down the restaurant where Jerry Maguire (Tom Cruise) got fired in the 1996 romcom of the same name.  I decided to actively revisit the search a couple of weeks ago and, this time,…

    Lauren’s House – Part Two (Or Should I Say Les Deux)

    ‘ At the risk of becoming a stalking site solely about The Hills, I just had to share my pics from visiting LC’”‘”‘s house this weekend. Conveniently, Lauren‘”‘”‘s new pad is located only half a mile from Speidi’”‘”‘s apartment building on the cutest street in the world! 🙂 Her house is gorgeous in person –…

  • Aunt Mitsy’s House from “Rumor Has It”

    Aunt Mitsy’s House from “Rumor Has It”

    ‘ One location that I have been on the lookout for for what seems like ages now is the home where Aunt Mitsy (aka Kathy Bates) lived in the 2005 movie Rumor Has It.  Even though I was never a particularly big fan of the flick, I pretty much fell in love with Aunt Mitsy’s…

    The “Beaches” Mansion vs. The “Starsky & Hutch” Mansion

    ‘ Two weeks ago, fellow stalker Jenny left a comment on my post about the long-sought-after Beaches mansion in which she mentioned that the very same residence had also been used in both 1983’s Mr. Mom and 1987’s Who’s That Girl.  Ironically enough, I had received virtually that same exact comment from a fellow stalker…
