Wollman Ice Skating Rink
‘ I’m sticking with my Christmas stalking theme for one more day – even though it’s already December 28th – as I had originally intended to publish this post on Christmas Eve, but, unfortunately, ran out of time. As I’ve said many times before, though, it’s better to be late than never! So, here goes! …

Pawn Shop to the Stars
‘ Another day, another pawn shop to write about. 🙂 Ironically, just around the corner from the now defunct Beverly Hills, 90210 pawn shop that I blogged about yesterday, is yet another local pawn shop that also has a filming history. Who knew that pawn shops were such popular filming locations?? 🙂 Angelo’”‘”‘s Jewelry and…

The Nightmare on Elm Street Houses
‘ While all of my friends and family are, for the most part, very supportive of my stalking endeavors, I still quite often get asked the question, “Do people really care about this stuff?” and “Can you explain your website to me, because I just don’”‘”‘t get it.” LOL One of the people who “just doesn’”‘”‘t get…

Location Scout-ing!
‘ While in New York, I just had to take a jaunt over to the real life bar which stood in for Scout, the watering hole owned by Carrie and Miranda’”‘”‘s exes, Steve and Aiden, on Sex and the City. The bar first showed up in the Season Four episode entitled “Ghost Town”, in which…

The “Big” Paddleball Court
‘ Another day, another Big location. And, sadly, this is actually the last Big location that I have to blog about. 🙁 Well, from this year’s New York trip, anyway. Being that fellow stalker Owen recently tracked down both the MacMillan Toys headquarters and Tom Hank’s loft from the movie, it looks like I’ll have…

Randy Taraborrelli named Michael Jackson: The Magic, The Madness, The Whole Story, 1958-2009. For anyone who is at all interested in MJ’s life, the 765…

Hilton Checkers Hotel
‘ A few months ago, Mike, from MovieShotsLA, scored the two of us invites to a party and silent auction being held by the Location Managers Guild of America. We had a fab time at the party and got to meet many location scouts, none of whom had any idea that there were people like us out…

The Dickie Roberts House
‘ Today is my good friend and fellow stalker Kerry’”‘”‘s birthday! The two of us are actually heading down to Disneyland in a bit, where Kerry has secured a reservation for a little birthday celebration at the park’”‘”‘s exclusive Club 33 members-only restaurant and, let me tell you, I could not be more excited!! I’”‘”‘ve been trying to get into that place for…

The El Royale Motel
‘ A couple of weeks ago while doing some Valley stalking, my boyfriend and I happened to drive by a small motel named the El Royale and I immediately recognized it from this page on the Seeing Stars website. I didn’”‘”‘t watch the Fourth Season of The O.C. (even though I do love me some Benjamin McKenzie!), but…

My Day on the Set of Weeds!
‘ I’”‘”‘ve said it before and I’”‘”‘ll say it again – I absolutely LOVE living in L.A. You just never know what surprises lay around each corner here! Yesterday, as I drove up to the Hollywood & Highland Center to meet my good friend Blaze for some coffee, I noticed quite a few of those yellow filming signs that…
