  • Huron Substation from “NCIS: New Orleans”

    Huron Substation from “NCIS: New Orleans”

    ‘ I have been a fan of the television show NCIS ever since it premiered in 2003.  While I never got into its 2009 spin-off, NCIS: LA, the Grim Cheaper and I recently caught the backdoor pilots for the series’ most recent offshoot, NCIS: New Orleans, and absolutely loved them.  I was also thrilled while…

  • The Arts District Firehouse Hotel from “ER”

    The Arts District Firehouse Hotel from “ER”

    ‘ The Grim Cheaper likes to say that I fixate on the silliest of things.  I typically scoff at the notion, but he’s 100% right.  Case in point – a few months back favorite blogger Emily Schuman, of Cupcakes and Cashmere, did a photo shoot at the Arts District Firehouse Hotel, a stylish fire-station-turned-lodging in…

  • 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…

  • The “Step by Step” House

    The “Step by Step” House

    ‘ One location fellow stalker Owen has been on the lookout for for quite some time now is the house where the Lambert Family lived in the 1990′”‘”‘s television sitcom Step by Step.  Because of the house’”‘”‘s Crafstman style architecture, Owen was pretty convinced that it was located somewhere in South Pasadena, a city which is known for its…

  • “The Big Bang Theory” Rooftop – Where Howard and Bernadette Got Married

    “The Big Bang Theory” Rooftop – Where Howard and Bernadette Got Married

    ‘ This past Monday evening, the Grim Cheaper and I sat down to catch up on a slew of television episodes that we had backlogged over the past week, one of which was The Big Bang Theory’s “The Countdown Reflection”.   In the episode, which has to be one of the cutest of the entire series,…

  • Pasadena Elks Lodge from “Veep”

    Pasadena Elks Lodge from “Veep”

    ‘ Anyone who has visited Pasadena has likely taken note of the sprawling pillared building situated on the southeast corner of Colorado and Orange Grove Boulevards.  As the many signs adorning the structure indicate, it serves as Elks Lodge #672.  I passed the site regularly during the 15+ years I called Crown City home and…

  • Off Limits Cocktail Lounge from “Rosewood”

    Off Limits Cocktail Lounge from “Rosewood”

    ‘ I’m still in quite a bit of shock – not to mention completely heartbroken – over the recent cancellation of Rosewood.  The cancellation was especially stinging being that there are a couple of locations from the former Fox series that I stalked, but have yet to blog about – namely Off Limits cocktail lounge,…

  • Ronnie and Amber’s House from “Modern Family”

    Ronnie and Amber’s House from “Modern Family”

    ‘ This season of Modern Family brought to life a storyline that is basically my worst fear – nightmare neighbors.  Poor Phil (Ty Burrell) and Claire Dunphy (Julie Bowen) had their tranquility disturbed in the episode titled “Won’t You Be Our Neighbor” when loudmouth medicinal marijuana dealer Ronnie LaFontaine (Steve Zahn), his wife, Amber (Andrea…

  • Anavrin from “You”

    Anavrin from “You”

    ‘ I loved Season 1 of You, but Season 2 was even more gripping, engrossing and enjoyable!  I think a large part of that had to do with Anavrin (pronounced “uh-nah-vrin”), the impossibly idyllic grocery store where Joe Goldberg (Penn Badgley) landed a job in episode 1, “A Fresh Start,” and worked throughout.  The charming…

  • Papagayos Mexican Restaurant & Cantina from "Vanderpump Rules"

    Papagayos Mexican Restaurant & Cantina from "Vanderpump Rules"

    ‘ It has been hot in Palm Springs lately.  Granted, it is always hot here, but the past few months have been unseasonably sweltering.  Two weeks ago, my parents, the Grim Cheaper and I decided to chill out a bit by heading to Lake Arrowhead for a short getaway.  Just prior to our trip, the…
