    The Hills are Alive!

    ‘ I must say this season of The Hills is so much better than I ever could have hoped! Is it sad that I get a little depressed every Monday night at around 11pm because I have to wait a whole week until a new episode airs? LOL Anyway, on the show, Lauren (and now…

    The Walsh House – Circa August 2009

    ‘ My fiance tried to talk me out of writing this post today, but it just seemed to be too important of an item for me to ignore.  As I mentioned in yesterday’”‘”‘s blog, last week, while giving a stalking tour of Pasadena to my good friend Kerry and her husband Jim, I drove by the Walsh…

    Mountain View Cemetery from “The Office”

    ‘ Since my favorite holiday, Halloween, is fast approaching, I thought it would only be appropriate to devote the next few blog posts to some filming locations of a spookier nature.  So, this past Sunday morning, Mike, from MovieShotsLA, the Grim Cheaper, and I went on a joint stalking venture up to Altadena to stalk…

  • Betty White’s Childhood Home

    Betty White’s Childhood Home

    ‘ While doing research on Afton Arms, the apartment building from the 1985 movie The Boys Next Door (which I blogged about here), I came across a page on the Hollywoodland website which stated that, at the age of eight, actress Betty White lived at a home located at 454 North Harper Avenue in Los…

    JFK and Jackie’s Former Georgetown Homes

    ‘ Considering how much I love history, I know shockingly little about former President John F. Kennedy and his wife, Jacqueline.  So I was thrilled when the Grim Cheaper gifted me with Jackie, Janet & Lee: The Secret Lives of Janet Auchincloss and Her Daughters Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis and Lee Radziwill last Christmas.  The 2018…

    ‘ Happy Halloween!  I can’t believe the season is already coming to a close!  October 31st is always bittersweet for me because, though my favorite holiday, it marks the end of my Haunted Hollywood postings for the year.  For my last go round of 2018, I thought I’d blog about one of Los Angeles’ most…

    Nick’s (Almost) Apartment from “The Crush”

    ‘ Just a mile and a half away from the Forrester mansion, which appeared in the 1993 thriller The Crush and which I blogged about yesterday, is the supposed Seattle-area apartment house where Nick Eliot (aka Cary Elwes) tried to rent a unit after discovering that his current landlords’ 14-year old daughter Adrian (aka Alicia…

  • A Breather

    A Breather

    ‘ This past week was a particularly trying one for me, during which both of my parents wound up in the hospital – my dad expectedly for a scheduled surgery and my mom completely unexpectedly (and rather scarily, I might add) when she fainted in the pre-operating room while my dad was being prepped.  They…

  • Bowfinger International Pictures from “Bowfinger”

    Bowfinger International Pictures from “Bowfinger”

    ‘ I am a sucker for any movie about Los Angeles.  Coincidentally (or perhaps no so coincidentally), Steve Martin has written and starred in two of my favorites – L.A. Story and Bowfinger.  Two completely different takes on life in LaLaLand, but both equally valid and poignant.  Because I originally moved to Southern California to…
