The “She’s Out of Control” House – Part 2
‘ One of my favorite parts of writing my blog each day is uncovering the various productions a particular locale has appeared in. Some spots are so prevalent on the big and small screen that I inevitably miss a role or two, though. Such was the case with the South Pasadena pad that portrayed the…

The Carlyle Hotel
‘ Yet another of my favorite New York haunts is the ultra-exclusive Carlyle Hotel, located on Manhattan’s Upper East Side. I blogged about the Carlyle’s famous Bemelman’s Bar, which was featured in Sex and the City: The Movie, after last year’s trip to the Big Apple, but didn’t include much information on the actual hotel…

The Blind Donkey from “Revenge”
‘ I stalk so many places, typically in quick succession, that oftentimes a few get lost in the shuffle. Such was the case with The Blind Donkey, an Old Town Pasadena whiskey bar that I visited back in April, shortly before the Grim Cheaper and I headed off to New York, and then promptly forgot…

Another Desert Weekend

The So-Called Houdini Ruins

The Night Before the Night Before Party
‘ Last night I dragged my boyfriend to the Regent Beverly Wilshire Hotel to do a little stalking of the “Night Before the Night Before Party” that was being held at Wolfgang Puck’”‘”‘s restaurant Cut located inside the hotel.

The Safari Inn from “True Romance”
‘ One oft-filmed-at locale that I had known about for ages, but had never gotten around to stalking was the historic Safari Inn on West Olive Avenue in Burbank. I had driven by the motel countless times over the years – I get my hair done right across the street, in fact – and, even…

My Los Angeles Must-Stalk List
‘ If I had a nickel for every time a fellow stalker wrote to me asking for my top ten favorite locations in all of Los Angeles, I would have a whole lot more Louis Vuitton in my closet than I do right now. Over the years, in response to that repeated question, I compiled…

Frank and Claire’s Townhouse from “House of Cards”
‘ It is a rare occasion for me to lay eyes on a Hollywood-designed set and not immediately want to move in. But such was the case with the townhouse belonging to Frank Underwood (Kevin Spacey) and his wife, Claire (Robin Wright), on the Netflix series House of Cards. While I love the handsome brick…

The Bradbury Building
‘ While serving on jury duty a few years back, I had the opportunity to visit one of the most incredible buildings I’”‘”‘ve ever seen in my life. Since jurors are oftentimes given incredibly long lunches (sometimes lasting over two and a half hours!!), the jury orientation paperwork includes a list of some “Things To Do” in…
