Shooters Bar & Grill from “Melrose Place”
‘ One location that had been on my “To Stalk” list pretty much ever since I first moved to Southern California over twelve years ago was Fellini’”‘”‘s “Old Country” Italian restaurant – the Hollywood-area eatery that stood in for Shooters Bar & Grill on the 1992 Beverly Hills, 90210–spinoff Melrose Place. And while I was…

Mia’s House from “Little Fires Everywhere”
‘ Reese Witherspoon certainly is the darling of streaming TV! First Big Little Lies (that’s HBO, but still), then The Morning Show, then Truth Be Told (which she executive-produced) and now Little Fires Everywhere. The latter, which is currently airing on Hulu, is an adaptation of Celest Ng’s 2017 book of the same name. Centering…

Our Lady of Solitude Church from “Behind the Candelabra”
‘ Another Palm Springs’ Behind the Candelabra location that the Grim Cheaper and I stalked recently was Our Lady of Solitude Church, where the funeral for Liberace (Michael Douglas) was held in the recently-aired HBO biopic. This locale was especially interesting because in a case of art imitating life, it was where the flamboyant pianist’s…

Via Quadronno from “Sex and the City”
‘ Nothing makes me miss New York more than photographs of croissants. That’s a weird sentiment, I know – especially considering I don’t even really like croissants. But during one of my first trips to the Big Apple, I dragged my family to Upper East Side café Via Quadronno for breakfast after coming across a…

The “Sex and the City” Starbucks
‘ One of the best things about starting this blog is the people it has put me in contact with – a myriad of fabulous individuals who share my unique affection for filming locations. One such fellow stalker, a New Yorker named Gary, has gifted me with countless Big Apple locales since we first started…

Michelle’s Downhill Derby from “Full House”
‘ There’s nothing like remnants of a film shoot remaining behind years after the fact to set my heart aflutter. Last June, a fellow stalker named Chris kindly emailed me a lengthy and comprehensive list of Full House locations he had tracked down, one of which was the Griffith Park road where the Downhill Derby…

The SmokeHouse Restaurant from “Lucifer”
‘ Hollywood loves a redux. So do I, apparently, because here I am yet again with yet another location re-do! (For those who missed it, I penned a second post on the Simpson family home from She’s Out of Control last week.) Today’s blog is actually my third go-around with this particular spot (you can…

The Parking Lot Where Jack McKay was Killed on “Beverly Hills, 90210”
‘ This past Saturday (which, as you can see above, was extremely overcast and cloudy – boo!), Mike, from MovieShotsLa, and I spent all day stalking in the Venice Beach/Marina Del Rey-area. After stopping by the Killer Café (aka the former Edie’s Diner from Enough and Dexter), which I will be blogging about soon, Mike…

“The Mary Tyler Moore Show” House
‘ Well, after three days and a whopping (insert sarcasm here) three tests (including a blood test, an ultra-sound, and a CAT scan, each of which my dad has undergone numerous times with his doctors at home over the past two years), we have been discharged from the Mayo Clinic sans diagnosis. The doctor’”‘”‘s sole recommendation…

Samantha Jones and Smith Jerrod’s Beach House
‘ This weekend after stalking the interior photos of the home shown on its real estate website and on this website. From the looks of it, it seems producers even chose to use the home’”‘”‘s real bedroom furniture for the filming. The front of Samantha and Smith’”‘”‘s home wasn’”‘”‘t shown in Sex and the City: The Movie, but you can catch a glimpse…
