  • 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 “Teen Witch” “Top That” Street Rap

    The “Teen Witch” “Top That” Street Rap

    ‘ There is no more iconic moment in the 1989 classic Teen Witch than the epic “Top That” street rap scene.  Stalking the location where it was filmed was pretty high up on my list of things to do while I was in L.A. recently (after stalking the main house featured in the movie first,…

  • The “Larry Crowne” Cul-de-sac

    The “Larry Crowne” Cul-de-sac

    ‘ The last Larry Crowne location that I stalked recently – and there will be more coming, believe me, because Mike, from MovieShotsLA, has found quite a few others –  is the cul-de-sac where Larry Crowne (aka Tom Hanks) and his garage-sale-hosting neighbors, Lamar Johnson (aka Cedric the Entertainer) and wife B’Ella Johnson (aka Taraji…

  • The Family House

    The Family House

    ‘ My good friend and fellow stalker Kerry is a huge fan of the 1976 television show and I just found out that while she has stalked the home used in the series several times, she doesn’”‘”‘t have any photographs of it. So I just had to go out and stalk the house for her…

  • 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…

  • Dean’s House from “License to Drive”

    Dean’s House from “License to Drive”

    ‘ For no particular reason and seemingly out of the blue, I got on a License to Drive kick a couple of weeks ago and was absolutely floored to come across a page on fellow stalker Geoff’s 90210Locations website that detailed almost all of the locales featured in the movie.  The only spot missing was…

  • The Painted Nail from “Nail Files”

    The Painted Nail from “Nail Files”

    ‘ Back in November, when my good friends, fellow stalkers Lavonna, Melissa, Beth, Kim, and Sandy, came out to Los Angeles from Ohio for a little stalking vacay, Lavonna booked them all a pampering session at The Painted Nail in Sherman Oaks – the salon that is featured regularly on the TV Guide Network’s reality…

  • Latest Scene It Before Post – About Joe Jost’s from “License to Wed”

    Latest Scene It Before Post – About Joe Jost’s from “License to Wed”

    ‘ I pay my respects to Robin Williams today with a Los Angeles magazine post about Joe Jost’s bar, where he filmed the movie License to Wed.  You can read it here.  My columns typically get published in the late morning/early afternoon hours. And don’”‘”‘t forget that I’”‘”‘ll be on “The Bill Feingold Show Featuring Kevin…

  • The LAPD/FBI Headquarters from “The Fast and the Furious”

    The LAPD/FBI Headquarters from “The Fast and the Furious”

    ‘ One location that I am asked about constantly is the mid-century modern-style, circular-shaped home that served as the LAPD/FBI undercover headquarters in the 2001 flick The Fast and the Furious.  And while fellow stalker Gary, of the Seeing Stars website, had briefly written about the Beverly Hills property a couple of years ago after…

  • Villapiano’s from “That Thing You Do!”

    Villapiano’s from “That Thing You Do!”

    ‘ One That Thing You Do! location that I had been trying to track down for what seemed like ages was the red-boothed Italian restaurant that stood in for Villapiano’s, the “spaghetti place out by the airport,” in the 1996 flick.  Thankfully, a couple of months ago, fellow stalker Owen, of the When Write Is…
