  • Madeline’s Real Estate Office from “Big Little Lies”

    Madeline’s Real Estate Office from “Big Little Lies”

    ‘ I try to keep things positive on this blog, but, man, Sunday night’s Big Little Lies finale was an epic disappointment!  The entire season was hugely lackluster, truth be told, which is especially frustrating considering the outright perfection of Season 1.  I will contend that the first few episodes started out semi-promising, but the…

  • Fair Oaks Burger from “Little Fires Everywhere”

    Fair Oaks Burger from “Little Fires Everywhere”

    ‘ I have never been a burger girl (I know, I know), but I’ve long been familiar with Altadena staple Fair Oaks Burger.  The veteran eatery sits at the northern end of Fair Oaks Avenue and, though I never popped in for a bite, I passed by it countless times throughout the 15+ years I…

  • The “Keep It Together” Park from “Beverly Hills, 90210”

    The “Keep It Together” Park from “Beverly Hills, 90210”

    ‘ Another location that Mike, from MovieShotsLA, and I visited during our Valley stalking day back in October was the Van Nuys – Sherman Oaks War Memorial Park, aka the spot where Brandon Walsh was “discovered” in the Season One episode of Beverly Hills, 90210 entitled “Fame Is Where You Find It”.    The War Memorial…

  • Warner Brothers Ranch, Here I Come!

    Warner Brothers Ranch, Here I Come!

    ‘ I am literally pinching myself right now because tonight I got to go on a private tour of the Warner Brothers Ranch Lot in Burbank. The Ranch is normally closed to the public, but my friend works on the lot and agreed to take me on my very own private stalking tour. I was…

  • A Filming Location Tour of “Schitt’s Creek”

    A Filming Location Tour of “Schitt’s Creek”

    ‘ I’m interrupting My Guide to Palm Springs to bring you a very special guest post about Schitt’s Creek’s filming locations penned by my BFF Nat.  I’ve dragged Nat out on many a stalking adventure throughout our long friendship, but it was not until she recently fell in love with the Pop TV series Schitt’s…

  • Jefferson Market Garden

    Jefferson Market Garden

    ‘ Another Sex and the City  location that I re-stalked while in New York last month was Jefferson Market Garden, the spot where the series’ ever-present cynic Miranda Hobbs finally married long-time boyfriend Steve Brady in the Season 6 episode entitled “The Ick Factor”.  I first stalked this location back in December of 2006, but…

  • Marco Salazar’s Pretend House from “90210”

    Marco Salazar’s Pretend House from “90210”

    ‘ As I mentioned in yesterday’s post, located directly across the street from the house belonging to Marla Templeton (aka Sally Kellerman) on fave show 90210 is the mansion where Marco Salazar (aka Freddie Smith) pretended to live in the Season 3 episode of the series titled “Women On The Verge”.  So after stalking Marla’s…

  • Elliott Bay Cafe – The Inspiration for Cafe Nervosa on “Frasier”

    Elliott Bay Cafe – The Inspiration for Cafe Nervosa on “Frasier”

    ‘ Another location that I stalked while visiting the Pacific Northwest this past May was Elliott Bay Cafe – the Seattle-area coffee shop that was the inspiration for Cafe Nervosa on the hit television series Frasier.  I first learned about this location from my good friend Nat, who in turn learned about it a few…

  • 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…

  • The Mentalist’s CBI Headquarters

    The Mentalist’s CBI Headquarters

    ‘ My location obsession as of late has been the CBI Headquarters building where Patrick Jane and the gang report to work each week on my new fave show The Mentalist. I do love me some Simon Baker!  He’”‘”‘s such a cutie!  🙂   Being that it is quite unique in appearance, I had an inkling that Mike, from MovieShotsLA, might recognize…
