  • Ali’s House from “Pretty Little Liars”

    Ali’s House from “Pretty Little Liars”

    ‘ Pretty Little Liars will be returning to the small screen on January 12th and I could NOT be more excited!  Though I found the recent mid-season finale to be absolutely ridiculous, not to mention a total let-down (this was SO me and my mom while viewing it), to the point that I thought I…

  • St. Vincent de Paul Church from “The Closer”

    St. Vincent de Paul Church from “The Closer”

    ‘ A couple of weeks ago, while watching the Season 7 episode of The Closer titled “Last Rites”, I received a text from my mom, who was also watching the show at the time.  She was curious to know if I was aware of what church the episode had been filmed at.  And, as fate…

  • 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…

  • and Jeremy Piven Nightclub from “Arrested Development”

    and Jeremy Piven Nightclub from “Arrested Development”

    ‘ Thanks to Netflix streaming and the boredom of summer reruns, I just recently started watching Arrested Development.  And, let me tell you, I am hooked!  My interest in the show was first piqued when I randomly came across this Wikia article about a fictitious nightclub on the series named “and Jeremy Piven.” I just…

  • The “Grey’s Anatomy” House

    The “Grey’s Anatomy” House

    ‘ Another location that my good friend and fellow stalker Kerry took me to stalk while I was visiting the Pacific Northwest earlier this year was the Seattle-area home owned by Meredith Grey (aka Ellen Pompeo) on the long-running television series Grey’s Anatomy.  I’ve only actually ever seen one episode of the show – the…

  • Dinah’s Family Restaurant from “Modern Family”

    Dinah’s Family Restaurant from “Modern Family”

    ‘ While I primarily love stalking filming locations of the residential variety, restaurants come in at a close second.  So when my friend Owen, of the When Write Is Blog, recently told me about Dinah’s Family Restaurant, a historic Westchester eatery that was featured in a Season 3 episode of Modern Family, I ran right…

  • Dana’s House from “The Goldbergs”

    Dana’s House from “The Goldbergs”

    ‘ Brenda and Dylan.  Winnie and Kevin.  Rachel and Joey.  Adam and Dana.  All TV couples who didn’t wind up together, but who, in my never-to-be-humble opinion, really should have.  Though, since The Goldbergs is still on the air, I guess there’s still hope for the latter two.  I mean, any romance that starts out…

  • Brand Library from “Scorpion”

    Brand Library from “Scorpion”

    ‘ I am probably the only person you will ever hear say this, but I absolutely loved working as a background actor in Hollywood.  Sure, the hours were long and unpredictable and the work tedious and repetitive, but the opportunities I was afforded to be up-close-and-personal with the inner workings of movie and television production…

  • The “Punky Brewster” Grocery Store

    The “Punky Brewster” Grocery Store

    ‘ As I mentioned in my August 18th post about the buildings used in the opening credits of fave ‘80s television show Punky Brewster (which you can read here), one spot that remained a mystery was the grocery store where Punky Brewster (Soleil Moon Frye) offered to help patrons carry their bags in exchange for…

  • Winnie Cooper’s House from “The Wonder Years”

    Winnie Cooper’s House from “The Wonder Years”

    ‘ UPDATE – The Wonder Years is coming to DVD for the first time ever in October!  The 26-disc boxed set includes all six seasons of the show, plus a cast reunion segment, over 15 hours of bonus footage, a collectible metal locker, two production booklets packed with behind-the-scenes information, a replica yearbook, and Wonder Years…
