  • Clown Dog Restaurant from “Don’t Tell Mom the Babysitter’s Dead”

    Clown Dog Restaurant from “Don’t Tell Mom the Babysitter’s Dead”

    ‘ UPDATE – I just drove by this location last week and was shocked to discover that the entire thing had been completely torn down.  The only part of it left standing is the All American Burger sign pictured below.  🙁  A Chipotle restaurant is currently being built in its place. So incredibly sad!  I will leave this post up, though, for those…

  • Tori Spelling’s Dream House

    Tori Spelling’s Dream House

    ‘ Just found out that – and to “ , no less!! The reality TV queen recently listed her Westwood home for a cool $2,395,000. Now mind you, Tori and her husband Dean only purchased this home a short nine months ago, in February of 2008. Fickle, much? This is the same home that she…

  • Disney’s Grand Central Air Terminal

    Disney’s Grand Central Air Terminal

    ‘ I am one of the few people lamenting the upcoming opening of Disneyland’s Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge.  Though renderings certainly look cool (it is Disney, after all!), I fear the massive crowds the new 14-acre land is expected to draw are going to ruin the park.  The Happiest Place on Earth is crowded enough! …

    The Parker Palm Springs Hotel

    ‘ This past Sunday afternoon, in the hopes of spotting some of the countless celebrities in town for the Coachella music festival, I dragged the Grim Cheaper out to a few of the desert’s more upscale hotels.  And while we did not end up seeing any stars during our venture, we did discover one of…

    Chelsea Lately’s “The Case of the Douche Bag Actor”

    ‘ Those of you who are regular visitors to my site will remember that, back in May, my good friend Blaze Foster was hired to be part of a “Detective Lately” skit on the Chelsea Lately show.   His scene was originally scheduled to be filmed on May 8th and I, of course, tagged along with…

  • Aunt Mitsy’s House from “Rumor Has It”

    Aunt Mitsy’s House from “Rumor Has It”

    ‘ One location that I have been on the lookout for for what seems like ages now is the home where Aunt Mitsy (aka Kathy Bates) lived in the 2005 movie Rumor Has It.  Even though I was never a particularly big fan of the flick, I pretty much fell in love with Aunt Mitsy’s…

  • Leigh Ann’s House from “Teaching Mrs. Tingle”

    Leigh Ann’s House from “Teaching Mrs. Tingle”

    ‘ The final Teaching Mrs. Tingle location that I was absolutely desperate to find was the home where Leigh Ann Watson (Katie Holmes) lived in the 1999 thriller.  Because the other two properties featured in the movie are located in Pasadena (you can read my post on the house belonging to Mrs. Tingle (Helen Mirren)…

    Simon Baker’s Former House

    ‘ While doing some cyberstalking on fave website Virtual Globetrotting a few weeks back, I came across this post listing the address of a Santa Monica home which formerly belonged to cutie Mentalist star – and my latest celebrity crush – Simon Baker and I just about keeled over from excitement.  So, when my dad…

  • Officer Rhodes’ House from “Bridesmaids”

    Officer Rhodes’ House from “Bridesmaids”

    ‘ As I mentioned in last Thursday’s post about the apartment building where Lillian (Maya Rudolph) lived in Bridesmaids, I recently became just a wee-bit obsessed with tracking down all of the locales featured in the 2011 hit.  One of the sites I was most interested in finding, of course, was the small blue ranch-style…

  • The Skyline Residence – Jacob’s House from “Crazy, Stupid, Love.”

    The Skyline Residence – Jacob’s House from “Crazy, Stupid, Love.”

    ‘ Back in August, I received an email from a fellow stalker named Brandon who wanted to let me know that he had tracked down the ultra-modern abode where Jacob Palmer (aka Ryan Gosling) lived in Crazy, Stupid, Love.  At the time I had yet to see the movie, but added the address to my…
