  • The “Malcolm in the Middle” House

    The “Malcolm in the Middle” House

    ‘ This weekend while I was in Studio City, I did a little stalking of the house.  I must admit that I have never watched a single episode of I know, I know, I must have been living under a rock for the past eight years or something – but since it is the favorite show of…

  • Jimmy’s Restaurant from “Grandfathered”

    Jimmy’s Restaurant from “Grandfathered”

    ‘ The Grim Cheaper and I were inundated with new shows we love during the Fall 2015 television season.  Virtually every single one we sampled became must-see TV for us, including Blind Spot, Limitless, The Grinder, Quantico, The Family (which technically didn’t start until early 2016), Oil (really bummed that one was cancelled), Wicked City…

  • Chez Cherie Cooking School from “I Love New York”

    Chez Cherie Cooking School from “I Love New York”

    ‘ This year for Christmas, I decided to gift the Grim Cheaper with tickets to a cooking class.  The GC is an absolutely FABULOUS cook, while I, on the other hand, can hardly crack an egg, as I mentioned in my January 2010 post about the home where Julia Child grew up.   So I thought…

  • Mitch’s House from “The Morning Show”

    Mitch’s House from “The Morning Show”

    ‘ My dad is unfortunately back in the hospital and right now this blog is one of the main things keeping me sane.  Being able to research, track down and write about filming locations, trivial as that may be, sparks major joy for me and has provided a much-needed distraction from all that is going…

  • Mia’s House from “Little Fires Everywhere”

    Mia’s House from “Little Fires Everywhere”

    ‘ Reese Witherspoon certainly is the darling of streaming TV!  First Big Little Lies (that’s HBO, but still), then The Morning Show, then Truth Be Told (which she executive-produced) and now Little Fires Everywhere.  The latter, which is currently airing on Hulu, is an adaptation of Celest Ng’s 2017 book of the same name.  Centering…

  • Dennis Feinstein Headquarters from “Parks and Recreation”

    Dennis Feinstein Headquarters from “Parks and Recreation”

    ‘ Though I chronicled the main locations used on Parks and Recreation pretty extensively for Los Angeles magazine in March, I still have a few of the series’ less prominent locales stockpiled in my backlog and figured it was about time that I covered them.  While watching the Season 7 episode titled “Save JJ’s,” I…

  • The “Biggest Loser” Ranch

    The “Biggest Loser” Ranch

    ‘ This past weekend, I dragged my boyfriend out to Calabasas to stalk the King Gillette Ranch, otherwise known as The Biggest Loser  Ranch.  I found this location thanks to the couple we met while stalking the Adamson House a few weeks back.   Our new friends, who just recently got engaged, have been traipsing all over the Los Angeles…

  • Nate ‘n Al’s Delicatessen

    Nate ‘n Al’s Delicatessen

    ‘ One location that I have been wanting to stalk for quite some time now is the historic Nate ‘n Al Delicatessen in Beverly Hills, but because I don’t get out to that area very often, the restaurant had remained an unchecked item on my extremely long “To-Stalk” list for over a year.  Until a…

  • Guasti Villa from "Veep"

    Guasti Villa from "Veep"

    ‘ It’s no secret how much I hate incorrect filming location information.  But sometimes errant info can lead to good things.  Case in point – back in 2012, an article was published about the Los Angeles locales featured in The Artist.  One of the sites detailed was Guasti Villa, aka Busby Berkeley’s former Jefferson Park…

  • The SmokeHouse Restaurant from “Lucifer”

    The SmokeHouse Restaurant from “Lucifer”

    ‘ Hollywood loves a redux.  So do I, apparently, because here I am yet again with yet another location re-do!  (For those who missed it, I penned a second post on the Simpson family home from She’s Out of Control last week.)  Today’s blog is actually my third go-around with this particular spot (you can…
