    The Waterfront Beach Resort from “Rosewood”

    ‘ It is such a shame when a favorite show jumps the shark.  If its latest episode, titled “Amparo & the American Dream,” is any indication, that fate seems to have befallen Rosewood, the FOX procedural currently in its second season.  While I was all in with the recent storyline centering around Captain Ryan Slade…

  • The Thomas W. Phillips Residence from “The People Under the Stairs”

    The Thomas W. Phillips Residence from “The People Under the Stairs”

    ‘ In his comment on my Milbank Mansion post, fellow stalker David, from The Location Scout blog, also informed me that directly across the street from the Beckett house (which I blogged about yesterday) was another famous movie location – the Thomas W. Phillips residence, which was featured extensively in The People Under the Stairs. …

  • Porter’s Stowaway Tavern from “Revenge”

    Porter’s Stowaway Tavern from “Revenge”

    ‘ The Grim Cheaper and I recently became obsessed with Revenge.  We randomly started watching the ABC series on Netflix one night in early September and could NOT stop.  For the next three weeks, the two of us obsessively binge-watched episodes, to the extent that I’m kind of surprised no one staged an intervention.  We…

  • Boris Karloff’s Former Home

    Boris Karloff’s Former Home

    ‘ The Haunting of Hill House is giving me life right now!  To say I am obsessed with the spooky new Netflix original series would be an understatement.  I am currently only five episodes in (so no spoilers please!), but am absolutely mesmerized by the storyline, the characters, the actors (it is amazing how much…

  • The Video Store from “Scream”

    The Video Store from “Scream”

    ‘ On a recommendation from E.J. over at The Movieland Directory, I recently purchased a GREAT book called “The Worldwide Guide to Movie Locations“. I was completely floored to discover an entire section in the book dedicated to one of my favorite movies of all time – a little horror flick called Scream. Now, while…

  • Disneyland’s Club 33

    Disneyland’s Club 33

    ‘ I must preface today’s blog with an apology, as this is one post that is far too long overdue!  Well over six months ago – yes, I am talking about waaaaaaaaaay back in July of 2009 – my good friend and fellow stalker Kerry invited me to share in her birthday celebration at the…

  • Julia Child’s Childhood Home

    Julia Child’s Childhood Home

    ‘ One of the best things about being a member of the Screen Actors Guild is that each and every January all guild members receive, often without notice, DVDs of various movies that have been nominated for an upcoming SAG award.  These DVDs are doled out “for your consideration” so that members can watch them…

  • Happy Halloween!

    ‘ I would like to wish all of my fellow stalkers a very Happy Halloween!  The Grim Cheaper and I were away all weekend celebrating the holiday with one of our best friends in San Diego, so I do not have a new post for today, unfortunately.  And my grandma is currently in town visiting…

  • The Paley Center for Media’s “Television: Out of the Box” Exhibit

    The Paley Center for Media’s “Television: Out of the Box” Exhibit

    ‘ Two weekends ago, as the Grim Cheaper and I were making our way home from the Hollywood Show, I decided to peruse through my Facebook newsfeed and just about died when I saw that a fellow stalker named Brittany had posted photographs of numerous Friends props and costumes on display at the Warner Bros.…

  • The Westin Bonaventure Hotel & Suites from “True Lies”

    The Westin Bonaventure Hotel & Suites from “True Lies”

    ‘ There is no shortage of unique architecture in Southern California.  The Bradbury Building, LADWP, and the 8500 apartment complex all immediately come to mind as highly individualistic spots.  One structure stands heads and shoulders above the rest, though, as being extra extraordinary – The Westin Bonaventure Hotel & Suites in downtown Los Angeles.  If…
