  • The Tire House from “Pee-wee’s Big Holiday”

    The Tire House from “Pee-wee’s Big Holiday”

    ‘ Today’s locale is becoming quite the prolific film star!  I’ve blogged about the residence at 800 Adelaine Avenue in South Pasadena previously – twice, in fact.  It first came on my radar thanks to its appearance in the 2008 comedy Bedtime Stories, as I chronicled here.  Then, in 2015, I noticed it pop up…

  • Ah, How the Mighty Have Fallen!

    Ah, How the Mighty Have Fallen!

    ‘ This weekend for my boyfriend’”‘”‘s birthday I took him on a surprise little weekend getaway to Newport Beach. He was especially excited because I wasn’”‘”‘t aware of any filming locations in Newport and hadn’”‘”‘t planned any stalking for the weekend. But fate stepped in! While in our hotel room, I happened to open up…

  • Kent’s House from “Wicked City”

    Kent’s House from “Wicked City”

    ‘ I cannot express how disappointed I am that ABC cancelled Wicked City.  I’ll admit that I was not very impressed with the series’ pilot episode, but I think that was mainly due to the fact that it was rather jarring to see Ed Westwick (one of my absolute faves!) portraying a serial killer.  The…

  • Brenda Leigh Johnson’s House from “The Closer”

    Brenda Leigh Johnson’s House from “The Closer”

    ‘ I thought I’”‘”‘d take a little break from writing about my nuptials today as I figure there are more than a few stalkers out there who are not at all interested in reading about wedding planning, even when there is a filming location element tied in to it.  Anyway, a few days ago I was going through some old photographs on my…

  • The Bewitched House!

    The Bewitched House!

    ‘ This weekend I stalked the house used as Darrin and Samantha’”‘”‘s home on the 1964 TV series . Interestingly enough, the house, located in Santa Monica, California, was only the inspiration for the home seen on the series, but was never actually used for filming. An exact replica of the Santa Monica house was…

  • The Old Place Restaurant from “Twin Peaks”

    The Old Place Restaurant from “Twin Peaks”

    ‘ A couple of weeks ago, I received an email from a fellow stalker named Brad who runs a website named Brad D Studios where, among other things, he chronicles filming locations from David Lynch productions.  I spent the next few hours perusing Brad’s site and was ABSOLUTELY SHOCKED to discover that every episode of…

  • Malibou Lake from “Parks and Recreation”

    Malibou Lake from “Parks and Recreation”

    ‘ A couple of months ago, I set out to find the lake house belonging to Donna Meagle (Retta) and her family in the Season 4 episode of fave show Parks and Recreation titled “Sweet Sixteen”.  (It was that search that led me to discover Johnson Lake in Pasadena, which I blogged about here.)  And…

  • Lake Arrowhead’s North Shore Marina Beach from “Vanderpump Rules”

    Lake Arrowhead’s North Shore Marina Beach from “Vanderpump Rules”

    ‘ Some television moments are so iconic they cannot be forgotten.  A few that are ingrained in my memory for the long haul – Ross and Rachel’s rain-soaked first kiss on Friends, Sam and Diane’s slapping fight on Cheers, Dylan’s epic tantrum (complete with a shattered potted plant) during his first date with Brenda on…

  • The Mansion from Season 1 of “The Bachelor”

    The Mansion from Season 1 of “The Bachelor”

    ‘ My girl Miss Pinky Lovejoy, of the Thinking Pink blog, recently gifted me with Best of The Bachelor, a DVD compilation of condensed episodes from the popular reality series’ first season as well as a slew of special features and not-shown-on-TV bonus footage. Well, because this stalker absolutely loves herself some The Bachelor, I…

  • 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…
