  • The Red Robin Restaurant from “Newlyweds”

    The Red Robin Restaurant from “Newlyweds”

    ‘ While Mike, from MovieShotsLA, and I were out doing some Valley stalking a couple of months ago, we decided to made a pit stop at the Red Robin restaurant in Calabasas for lunch.  Even though I am not now nor never have been a big Jessica Simpson fan, I had been dying to stalk the…

    Riley’s House from “The Client List”

    ‘ As I have mentioned many times before on this site, fellow stalker Owen, of the When Write Is Wrong blog, is the biggest Jennifer Love Hewitt fan this side of the Atlantic.  So when the actress’ new show, The Client List, premiered in April, he, of course, immediately set about searching for locations from…

  • Hyatt Regency Century Plaza Hotel from “The Ugly Truth”

    Hyatt Regency Century Plaza Hotel from “The Ugly Truth”

    ‘ It has been said that Los Angeles has no regard for its history.  Today’s post is a testament to that assertion.  On March 1st of this year, the doors of the Hyatt Regency Century Plaza Hotel were closed in order for a massive remodel and renovation process to take place.  Though the building is…

  • Our Lady of Solitude Church from “Behind the Candelabra”

    Our Lady of Solitude Church from “Behind the Candelabra”

    ‘ Another Palm Springs’ Behind the Candelabra location that the Grim Cheaper and I stalked recently was Our Lady of Solitude Church, where the funeral for Liberace (Michael Douglas) was held in the recently-aired HBO biopic.  This locale was especially interesting because in a case of art imitating life, it was where the flamboyant pianist’s…

  • Crossroads of the World from “Dexter”

    Crossroads of the World from “Dexter”

    ‘ Before I get started, I’”‘”‘d like to give a big birthday shout-out to my beloved Grandma, who turns 86 today.  Happy Birthday, Grandma!  I love you!  And now, on with the post!  One location that I dragged the Grim Cheaper out to stalk while in the Hollywood area a few weeks back was Crossroads of…

  • The “Mama’s Family” Houses

    The “Mama’s Family” Houses

    ‘ I have dreamed of writing this post for so long!  One of the locations I get asked about the most (I literally get emails and comments about it all the time!) is the house that portrayed Thelma Harper’s (Vicki Lawrence) residence during the first two seasons of Mama’s Family.  For those who aren’t familiar…

  • 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…

  • Priscilla’s Coffee Tea & Gifts

    Priscilla’s Coffee Tea & Gifts

    ‘ Many years ago, I was enrolled in an acting school in Burbank that was located just down the street from a little coffee shop named Priscilla’”‘”‘s Coffee Tea & Gifts.  I logged quite a bit of time at the coffee house, as my classmates and I would often grab a coffee and hang out…

  • Hotel Normandie from “Vanderpump Rules”

    Hotel Normandie from “Vanderpump Rules”

    ‘ Vanderpump Rules is like a fine wine – it just keeps getting better with age.  Six seasons in and the show still hasn’t peaked!  Well, in my opinion, at least.  Not only do the storylines continually get more and more compelling (and ridiculous – “My boyfriend can hang a TV in under seven minutes. …
