    You’re Going to Hollywood, Dog!

    ‘ Got a from Hilary last week to find the apartment building that the Top 12 American Idols just moved into. This challenge was actually a slam dunk as a good friend of mine used to live in the Idols building. So I just called him up and got the address (Thanks, DH!) The Idols…

    New “L.A.” Mag Post – About the “How to Get Away with Murder” House

    ‘ Be sure to check out today’s Los Angeles magazine post – about Annalise’s house from How to Get Away with Murder.  My articles typically get published in the late morning/early afternoon hours. ‘

  • The “Doppelganger” Mansion

    The “Doppelganger” Mansion

    ‘ Another location from the 1993 thriller Doppelganger that I dragged the Grim Cheaper out to stalk this past weekend was the mansion where Holly Gooding (aka Drew Barrymore) grew up in the flick.  I found this locale, once again, thanks to Tony, my friend and fellow stalker who has the amazing Flickr photostream which…

    Cole’s Restaurant from “A Lot Like Love”

    ‘ This past weekend I dragged my fiancé out to re-stalk Cole’s Restaurant, a location that I originally blogged about way back in May of 2008.  I first learned about the old time watering hole while watching the DVD commentary for fave movie A Lot Like Love, during which one of the film’s directors mentions…

  • The “ALF” House

    The “ALF” House

    ‘ One location that I have been asked about repeatedly over the years is the Tudor-style home where the Tanner family – Willie (Max Wright), Kate (Anne Schedeen), Lynn (Andrea Elson), Brian (Benji Gregory), and their Melmacian house guest, ALF (who was voiced by series creator Paul Fusco) – lived in the 1986 television series…

    ‘ A couple of months ago, my favorite desert radio personalities “Bulldog” Bill Feingold and Kevin Holmes interviewed Tyson Wrensch, co-author of Until Someone Gets Hurt.  The book, which chronicles the disappearance and murder of 74-year-old Palm Springs retiree Clifford Lambert at the hands of five San Francisco-based grifters (27-year-old playboy Daniel Garcia, 26-year-old Nepalese…

  • The “Clueless” Guide to Occidental College

    The “Clueless” Guide to Occidental College

    ‘ While it is well-known among location aficionados that Occidental College masked as Bronson Alcott High School in Clueless, an in-depth guide to the exact areas of the campus that appeared in the flick has never been published.  So, with some help from Mike, from MovieShotsLA, Owen, from the When Write Is Wrong blog, and…

    Miranda and Steve’s Garden Wedding

    ‘ In keeping with the SATC theme of this week, I thought I’”‘”‘d do a post about a location that my boyfriend actually dragged me to! At the time I had no idea it was a filming location, let alone a SATC filming location, so sadly I didn’”‘”‘t take many pictures while I was there.…

  • Mawby’s Bar from “Flashdance” – An Update

    Mawby’s Bar from “Flashdance” – An Update

    ‘ Typically, when a vacant space is built out for a production, it is dismantled as soon as filming wraps – though sometimes stranger things, ahem, do happen.  Take Gwinnett Place, for instance.  A wing of the largely deserted Duluth, Georgia shopping center was transformed (with breathtaking attention to detail, I might add) into Hawkins,…
