    Joe’s Apartment from the Second Season of “You”

    ‘ The second season of You couldn’t have been more quintessentially L.A.!  Nowhere is that more evident than in the apartment building that served as Joe Goldberg’s (Penn Badgley) new West Coast home.  As a reader commented about the place to me last week on Facebook, “It seems like I’ve passed it 284739484 times in…

    Holly’s Nashua House from “The Office”

    ‘ Another location from The Office that I stalked recently was the supposed Nashua, New Hampshire-area house that Holly Flax moved into in the Season 5 episode titled “Employee Transfer”.  I found this location, yet again, thanks to fellow stalker Owen who went on a mission a while back to try to track down as…

    Seaside Coffee Shop from “Big Little Lies”

    ‘ My favorite filming location find from this season of Big Little Lies isn’t actually a filming location at all!  Back on March 19th, 2018, shortly after shooting of S2 commenced, Reese Witherspoon posted an Instagram photo of herself sitting in front of the supposed Central Coast-area Seaside Coffee Shop with costar Laura Dern, captioning,…
