  • The 90210 Pilot Church

    The 90210 Pilot Church

    ‘ A few days ago I sent Mike, from MovieShotsLA, a screen capture of the church featured in the pilot episode of Beverly Hills, 90210. I had a hunch he might know where it was located – and, sure enough, he did! He immediately called me and said “That’”‘”‘s the Spiderman church!” as it was…

  • The “Keep It Together” Park from “Beverly Hills, 90210”

    The “Keep It Together” Park from “Beverly Hills, 90210”

    ‘ Another location that Mike, from MovieShotsLA, and I visited during our Valley stalking day back in October was the Van Nuys – Sherman Oaks War Memorial Park, aka the spot where Brandon Walsh was “discovered” in the Season One episode of Beverly Hills, 90210 entitled “Fame Is Where You Find It”.    The War Memorial…

  • The “30 Rock” Building

    The “30 Rock” Building

    ‘ One of the locales at the very top of this year’s New York vacation’s must-stalk list was the main building featured on my new favorite television show 30 Rock.  For some reason, until we rented the series earlier this past summer, neither my fiancé nor I had ever seen even a single episode of…

  • Montrose Bowl

    Montrose Bowl

    ‘ A few weeks ago, while out stalking the city of Montrose with Mike, from MovieShotsLA, the two of us happened to stumble upon a little bowling alley named Montrose Bowl, which has been featured in countless movie and television productions.  Even though the bowling alley is currently closed to the public – it is…

  • Taverna Tony

    Taverna Tony

    ‘ This past Saturday afternoon my boyfriend and I met up with my former boss and his wife for some coffee at the Malibu Country Mart – where we sat next to Brian Grazer in the playground area for a good 45 minutes.  But that’”‘”‘s a whole other story.  🙂  After hanging out at the Mart for…

  • Kansas City Barbeque – Back and Better Than Ever!

    Kansas City Barbeque – Back and Better Than Ever!

    ‘ I thought I’”‘”‘d take a little break today from my NYC blogging – and yes, I do have many more Manhattan filming locations to write about 🙂 – to do a little post about an old favorite of mine – Kansas City Barbeque in San Diego, or as it is more commonly known, the…

  • “It Never Rains In Southern California . . . “

    “It Never Rains In Southern California . . . “

    ‘ As the old Albert Hammond song says “It never rains in Southern California, but girl, don’”‘”‘t they warn ya, it pours man, it pours!”  And pour it did almost all last week all over the normally sun drenched landscape of Los Angeles.  While on my way to stalk Burbank’”‘”‘s Handy Grocery Store in the pouring rain this…

  • The “Rumor Has It” House

    The “Rumor Has It” House

    ‘ Out of the blue last week, fellow stalker Owen and I became a bit obsessed with finding the white clapboard colonial style home used in the 2005 Jen Aniston movie Rumor Has It.  For some extremely odd reason, neither Owen (who is also a HUGE JA fan) nor I had ever tried to locate the house before.  I didn’”‘”‘t…

  • Oscar Weekend 2009!

    Oscar Weekend 2009!

    ‘ Oh, how I love the smell of Awards Season in the morning! And let me tell you – this was the Academy Awards Weekend to end all Academy Awards Weekends for me! I had the absolute time of my life!!!!!!!!!!! It was so incredible that I am still pinching myself today. Bright and early…

  • John Barrymore’s Apartment Building

    John Barrymore’s Apartment Building

    ‘ Another Greenwich Village location that Owen, my fiancé, and I stalked during our recent whirlwind day in New York City was the Greek Revival townhouse where beleaguered actor John Barrymore – Drew’s grandfather – once lived.  For three years, from 1917 to 1920, John rented the top floor penthouse of the building pictured above,…
