  • The New York Palace Hotel

    The New York Palace Hotel

    ‘ Yet another Gossip Girl location that I set out to stalk during this year’s Manhattan vacation was the New York Palace Hotel, a locale which has appeared in pretty much every single episode of the series since it began back in 2007.   Truth be told, though, I actually first stalked this location quite a…

  • The Occult Store from “The Craft”

    The Occult Store from “The Craft”

    ‘ I often receive emails from fellow stalkers who are planning trips to Los Angeles and want some help in tracking down a favorite film or television location.  The emails always give me a pang of recognition.  I was that stalker once upon a time.  During one of my first trips to L.A., I was…

    “Tower, This is Ghostrider Requesting A Fly-by”

    ‘ When I was in high school, back before he totally went off his rocker and started jumping on couches, I was head over heels in love with Tom Cruise! I thought he was the dreamiest! And I didn’”‘”‘t think there could ever be a better movie than ! Still love , but I’”‘”‘ve pretty…

  • The Pink Motel from “Vanderpump Rules”

    The Pink Motel from “Vanderpump Rules”

    ‘ The latest season of Vanderpump Rules might have been the most epic yet.  With Stassi Schroeder making only occasional appearances, I had a fear that the show was going to lose all of its allure and most of its steam, but that was not the case.  Kristen Doute brought the crazy like never before…

  • The Whisky a Go Go

    The Whisky a Go Go

    ‘ I’ve never really been into music.  As I have mentioned before, if it’s not sung by Michael Bublé, Britney Spears or Michael Jackson, or was not a top ‘80s hit, chances are I haven’t heard it.  But my good friend Kim from Kentucky is a huge music buff, so when she and our good…

    New Discover L.A. Post – L.A.’s “Fast and Furious” Locations

    ‘ The Grim Cheaper and I are currently away on a little staycation for our 5th anniversary, so I do not have a new Guide to L.A. post for you today (nor will I tomorrow), but in the meantime be sure to check out my latest Discover Los Angeles article about the L.A. locations from…

  • Ray Combs’ Former House

    Ray Combs’ Former House

    ‘ One Haunted Hollywood location that I learned about back in January thanks to the fabulous book Hollywood Death and Scandal Sites, which was written by fellow stalker E.J. of The Movieland Directory, was the Glendale-area home where former Family Feud host Ray Combs was taken into custody shortly before his 1996 suicide.  I was…

  • Oscar Weekend 2010

    Oscar Weekend 2010

    ‘ The celebrity sightings during Oscar Weekend 2010 started a bit early for me this year when Mike, from MovieShotsLA, and I accidentally stumbled upon the filming of CSI: Miami in Altadena on Friday morning.  But I’ll save that story for tomorrow’s blog post.  Today, it’s strictly all about Oscar, Oscar, Oscar!  And, let me…

  • The Stage from “Big Little Lies’

    The Stage from “Big Little Lies’

    ‘ So far I am unimpressed with the locations featured in Big Little Lies’ second season.  During the HBO series’ first go-round, not only were the locales fantastic, but they were showcased to such an incredible extent that they pretty much overshadowed everything else – but in the best way possible!  Despite the drama and…

  • The Hancock Park House Where Prince William and Kate Middleton Stayed In July 2011

    The Hancock Park House Where Prince William and Kate Middleton Stayed In July 2011

    ‘ While Mike, from MovieShotsLA, and I were out stalking two Thursdays ago, I asked him to take me by the Hancock Park-area mansion where Prince William, Duke of Cambridge, and Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge (the former Miss Kate Middleton), stayed while visiting Los Angeles last July. Mike had found the property a few months…
