  • The “Young Sheldon” House

    The “Young Sheldon” House

    ‘ I don’t think I’ve ever hated a television character more than Samantha Ruland on Scandal (though Beverly Hills, 90210’s Kelly Taylor ranks a close second).  Played by Zoe Perry, Samantha represented pure evil – there was literally not a single redeeming thing about her.  It got to the point that even hearing her voice…

  • Center Stage from “Vanderpump Rules”

    Center Stage from “Vanderpump Rules”

    ‘ Continuing on with our Vanderpump Rules tour of Lake Arrowhead, the Grim Cheaper and I headed over to Center Stage, the outdoor concert venue where Pierce the Arrow, Tom Sandoval’s band, played in the Season 2 episode titled “Only the Lonely.”  Thankfully, this was an easy find and stalk.  Not only was the name…

  • The Starbucks from “The Morning Show”

    The Starbucks from “The Morning Show”

    ‘ I love a good Starbucks location!  I mean, what’s better than stalking and being able to pick up a great cup of coffee at the same time?  So I was thrilled to recognize an outpost of the java giant while watching the fifth episode of The Morning Show, titled “No One’s Gonna Harm You,…

  • The Golden Girls House

    The Golden Girls House

    ‘ This past weekend, thanks to fellow stalker Owen, I was able to stalk the home used in one of my favorite ‘”‘”’80s TV shows – The Golden Girls.   Being that I was only eight years old at the time The Golden Girls premiered, I probably seem like a very unlikely fan of the show.  But, for some reason,…

  • Monrovia Bakery from the New “Iceland” Pilot

    Monrovia Bakery from the New “Iceland” Pilot

    ‘ During this entire past week, the television pilot for the new Fox comedy series Iceland, which stars Scrubs’ Kerry Bishe, Friday Night Lights’ Zach Gilford, and 24’s John Boyd, has been filming on location on Myrtle Avenue in Old Town Monrovia, just down the street from where my parents now live.  The show, which…

  • ARIA Resort & Casino “The Bachelor”

    ARIA Resort & Casino “The Bachelor”

    ‘ Each season, The Bachelor reality series whisks its stars and contestants to various exotic, high-end locales.  During Brad Womack’s second stint as The Bachelor, he and the ladies (including my girl Emily Maynard) headed to the ARIA Resort & Casino in Las Vegas.  Prior to last month, I had not been to Sin City…

  • The Viper Room from “Entourage”

    The Viper Room from “Entourage”

    ‘ Once I found the location of Zebra tattoo parlor, on which Jeremy Piven’s name was displayed during the opening credits of Entourage each week (I blogged about it here), I just had to track down the spot where cutie Jerry Ferrara’s moniker was showcased.  Upon finally doing so, I was a bit embarrassed that…

  • “The Mary Tyler Moore Show” Apartment Building

    “The Mary Tyler Moore Show” Apartment Building

    ‘ In 1975, after the real-life owner of The Mary Tyler Moore Show house put a big, fat ixnay on letting the series do any more filming on her property, producers decided to move their spunky heroine to the newly-built, multi-colored apartment complex known as Cedar Square West in the Cedar-Riverside area of Minneapolis.  My…

  • Pickwick Bowl from “Parks and Recreation”

    Pickwick Bowl from “Parks and Recreation”

    ‘ While watching the Season 4 episode of Parks and Recreation titled “Bowling for Votes” back in June, I wondered aloud about at which bowling alley filming had taken place.  The Grim Cheaper, who happened to hear me, looked up from his ever-present laptop and said, “That’s Pickwick Bowl – part of Pickwick Gardens –…

  • The Knots Landing Cul-De-Sac

    The Knots Landing Cul-De-Sac

    ‘ The first time I heard about the wildly popular 80s primetime soap opera Knots Landing  was when it was referenced in the Season 2 episode of Beverly Hills, 90210  entitled “Wild Fire”.  In the episode, after getting into a fight with Brenda over Dylan McKay’”‘”‘s affections, Emily Valentine announces “This isn’”‘”‘t Beverly Hills, it’”‘”‘s Knots Landing!…
