  • The Julien’s Auctions Hollywood Legends Exhibition

    The Julien’s Auctions Hollywood Legends Exhibition

    ‘ This past Saturday afternoon I dragged the Grim Cheaper out to stalk the Hollywood Legends exhibition currently being hosted by Julien’s Auctions, a Beverly Hills-area auction house which specializes in entertainment memorabilia, celebrity artifacts, and high-profile estates.  Prior to each auction it hosts, Julien’s opens up its exhibition hall to the public offering them…

  • Ann’s House from “Parks and Recreation”

    Ann’s House from “Parks and Recreation”

    ‘ As I mentioned in Wednesday’s post about the Sullivan Street Pit from fave new show Parks and Recreation, during our whirlwind stalking adventure last Friday, Mike, from MovieShotsLA, and I also hit up the house where Ann Perkins (Rashida Jones) lives on the show.  Just as it is made to appear on P&R, Ann’s…

  • The Oldest Restaurant in Hollywood!

    The Oldest Restaurant in Hollywood!

    ‘ Two weeks ago, while my mom and I were out stalking in Hollywood, we hit up Musso and Frank’”‘”‘s Grill, which has the distinction of being the oldest running restaurant in Hollywood. Opened in 1919, not only is Musso and Frank’”‘”‘s a top notch celeb hangout, but the restaurant has been featured in countless…

  • The Houses from the Movie “Big”

    The Houses from the Movie “Big”

    ‘ Right around the corner from The King of Queens house, which I blogged about on Friday, are the two main houses used in the 1988 Tom Hanks movie Big.  And when I say “right around the corner”, I literally mean RIGHT around the corner.  The King of Queens  house and the Big  houses are…

  • Counterpoint Records and Books from “A Lot Like Love”

    Counterpoint Records and Books from “A Lot Like Love”

    ‘ I obviously need to start paying closer attention to things because for years I was under the impression that all of the locations from fave movie A Lot Like Love had been tracked down.  But while scanning through the 2005 romcom to make screen captures for my recent post on the home where Oliver’s…

  • The Lost Horizon Apartment Complex from “Major Crimes”

    The Lost Horizon Apartment Complex from “Major Crimes”

    ‘ I have long been a fan of the television series Major Crimes (as well as its parent show The Closer) and though I love pretty much every single episode that airs, I do have a definitive favorite – Season 2’s “There’s No Place Like Home.”  For those who have not seen the episode (and…

  • The “Punky Brewster” Building

    The “Punky Brewster” Building

    ‘ Back in early July, a fellow stalker named Charles posted a comment on my Challenge Lindsay page asking me to track down the building where Punky Brewster (Soleil Moon Frye) lived with her adoptive father, curmudgeon Henry Warnimont (George Gaynes), in the 1980s television series Punky Brewster. Now this stalker absolutely LOVED herself some…

  • Charles Mulligan’s Steakhouse from “Parks and Recreation”

    Charles Mulligan’s Steakhouse from “Parks and Recreation”

    ‘ This past March I wrote The Complete Parks and Recreation Guide to Los Angeles for L.A. magazine.  At the time of the posting, though, I had yet to visit every location featured on the list.  The most glaring omission from my stalking profile was Whiskey Bend, the Burbank bar that masqueraded as Charles Mulligan’s…

  • My Day on the Set of “The Goldbergs”

    My Day on the Set of “The Goldbergs”

    ‘ I debated titling this post “How The Goldbergs altered my Thanksgiving.”  The Grim Cheaper and I were introduced to the ABC series, which is like an ‘80s-set The Wonder Years, last fall and quickly became hooked.  We plowed through all of the episodes in just a few weeks and found each to be poignant,…

  • William McKinley High School from “Glee”

    William McKinley High School from “Glee”

    ‘ My Hollywood obsession as of late is the new Fox musical dramedy Glee.  Actually, stating that I am obsessed with the series is a rather gross understatement.  To say it’s more of an all-out, withdrawal-symptom inducing addiction would be closer to the truth.  In fact, I don’t think I’ve been this enamored of a…
