  • Rest Easy, Luke

    Rest Easy, Luke

    ‘ Coy Luther Perry III – I scrawled that name in my high school notebooks more times than I care to admit, along with his better known moniker, Luke Perry.  My bedroom was also wallpapered with images of the dreamy teen idol.  I even slept on Beverly Hills, 90210 sheets!  And, at the age of…

  • Mary’s House from “All About Steve”

    Mary’s House from “All About Steve”

    ‘ If you listened to critics, you probably think All About Steve has no redeeming qualities whatsoever.  You’d be wrong, though.  While the 2009 comedy (and I use the term “comedy” loosely) is not remotely funny, boasts an odd storyline, and fails to properly showcase the talents of its fabulous cast, which includes Bradley Cooper,…

  • Carlotta’s House from “Hail, Caesar!”

    Carlotta’s House from “Hail, Caesar!”

    ‘ Today’s locale involves something I’ve never come across in all my years of stalking!  Last June, a reader named Molly posted a comment on my Challenge Lindsay page asking for some help in tracking down the house where Carlotta Valdez (Veronica Osorio) lived in the 2016 Coen Brothers comedy Hail, Caesar!  She mentioned that…

  • Merry Christmas!

    ‘ I would like to wish my fellow stalkers a very merry Christmas.  I hope everyone is enjoying the holiday with family and friends.  I will be taking some time off to celebrate with my loved ones, but will be back in January.  I also apologize for not having a new post up for a…

  • The Filming Locations of “Big Little Lies” Season 2 – “She Knows”

    The Filming Locations of “Big Little Lies” Season 2 – “She Knows”

    ‘ The fourth episode of Big Little Lies’ second season is pretty much when the show jumped the shark for me.  Though there were some captivating moments – a pumpkin carving party, a disco soiree and that slap! – the majority of “She Knows” was just meh.  Nevertheless, I proudly present to you its locations! …

  • The Union Theological Seminary Rotunda from “The Ice Storm”

    The Union Theological Seminary Rotunda from “The Ice Storm”

    ‘ Locations have been making impressions on me for ages, long before I even knew stalking was a thing.  Case in point – way back in 1997 while watching The Ice Storm, I became fixated on the ornate stone staircase Libbets Casey (Katie Holmes) walked down in an early scene.  Even though I only saw…

  • The Stage from “Big Little Lies’

    The Stage from “Big Little Lies’

    ‘ So far I am unimpressed with the locations featured in Big Little Lies’ second season.  During the HBO series’ first go-round, not only were the locales fantastic, but they were showcased to such an incredible extent that they pretty much overshadowed everything else – but in the best way possible!  Despite the drama and…

  • Mountain View Mausoleum from “Lucifer”

    Mountain View Mausoleum from “Lucifer”

    ‘ Given my proclivity for graveyards and extensive knowledge of Los Angeles (especially the Pasadena area), it is shocking that I only learned of Altadena’s Mountain View Mausoleum a few months ago.  Sure I’ve visited the neighboring Mountain View Cemetery numerous times and even dedicated a post to it, but somehow I never knew about…

  • My Latest Interview with US Modernist Radio

    My Latest Interview with US Modernist Radio

    ‘ I apologize for being MIA the past couple of days.  Both of my parents had surgery last week (my mom’s planned, my dad’s completely unplanned), so things have been hectic to say the least.  My dad was finally released from the hospital yesterday and I am hoping to have a new post up tomorrow,…

  • The Federal from “Four Christmases”

    The Federal from “Four Christmases”

    ‘ I tracked down today’s locale thanks to some very insider information.  Back on December 19th, 2012, I wrote about the San Francisco pad that portrayed Brad (Vince Vaughn) and Kate’s (Reese Witherspoon) residence in Four Christmases.  Just a few hours after hitting “publish,” I received an email from the production designer of the 2008…
