  • Spring Cleaning!

    Spring Cleaning!

    ‘ I hate to do this again, but . . . my parents came to town this past weekend to celebrate Easter with the Grim Cheaper and me and, in preparation for their visit, I spent all day Friday cleaning and tidying up our apartment.  As the GC loves to tell anyone who will listen…

  • Chateau LeMoine from “Southland”

    Chateau LeMoine from “Southland”

    ‘ A few months ago, Mike, from MovieShotsLA, posted some photographs on his site of Chateau LeMoine, an uh-ma-zing castle-like property that was featured in the Season 3 episode of Southland (his favorite television series, second only, of course, to Beverly Hills, 90210) titled “Cop or Not”.  And while I have never watched Southland, I…

  • Fig & Olive Restaurant from the 2012 “Matthew’s Day Off” Honda CR-V Super Bowl Commercial

    Fig & Olive Restaurant from the 2012 “Matthew’s Day Off” Honda CR-V Super Bowl Commercial

    ‘ Ever since I first saw the ingenious “Matthew’s Day Off” Honda CR-V commercial that premiered during the 2012 Super Bowl on February 6th, I have been absolutely itching to track down the restaurant that appeared in it.  Especially since, a few weeks beforehand, I had stalked and blogged about L’Orangerie, the eatery that stood…

  • Another Day of Cleaning!

    Another Day of Cleaning!

    ‘ Because I spent all day yesterday cleaning (once again – UGH!), I did not have time to write a new column for today.  But I did get to meet actress Emma Roberts earlier this week, so I thought I would post the pic I took with her so that today’s blog would not be…

  • A Day Off!

    A Day Off!

    ‘ I had to run a massive amount of errands and take care of some personal business this past Friday, so I was unfortunately not able to write a new post for today.  But I do promise to be back tomorrow with a whole new location. Until next time, Happy Stalking! ‘

  • The Hollywood Show!

    The Hollywood Show!

    ‘ This past Saturday morning, I headed out to Burbank to attend the quarterly Hollywood Show, formerly known as the Hollywood Collectors Show. For those who have never heard of the event (like me, up until just recently), let me break it down for you. The Hollywood Show is a convention in which celebrities of…

  • The Hancock Park House Where Prince William and Kate Middleton Stayed In July 2011

    The Hancock Park House Where Prince William and Kate Middleton Stayed In July 2011

    ‘ While Mike, from MovieShotsLA, and I were out stalking two Thursdays ago, I asked him to take me by the Hancock Park-area mansion where Prince William, Duke of Cambridge, and Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge (the former Miss Kate Middleton), stayed while visiting Los Angeles last July. Mike had found the property a few months…

  • The Harper House from “Scream 3”

    The Harper House from “Scream 3”

    ‘ Last Thursday afternoon, before grabbing lunch at Pinches Tacos from The Hills which I blogged about on Tuesday, Mike, from MovieShotsLA, took me by a famous apartment complex in West Hollywood named the Harper House.  Because the Spanish Baroque-style building was featured in Scream 3 (as well as countless other productions), Mike thought that…

  • The Former Site of the “Doogie Howser, M.D.” House

    The Former Site of the “Doogie Howser, M.D.” House

    ‘ This past (dismal and dreary) Sunday afternoon, after stalking the Jack & Jill house, which I blogged about on Tuesday, I dragged the Grim Cheaper a few blocks south to stalk a location that I had been wanting to see in person for years – the Howser residence, where teenage prodigy Dr. Doogie Howser…

  • The “Teen Wolf” Liquor Store

    The “Teen Wolf” Liquor Store

    ‘ While out stalking in the San Gabriel Valley three Thursdays ago, on our way to visit Clark Magnet High School where Kris Witherspoon (my girl Shannen Doherty) went to school in the 1986 television series Our House (which I have yet to blog about), Mike, from MovieShotsLA, made a quick (pardon the pun) detour…
