    Thornton’s Mansion from “Back to School”

    ‘ Even though I am a definite child of the ‘80s, for whatever reason I had never seen the 1986 Rodney Dangerfield classic Back to School until late last year.  I wound up loving the flick and immediately started researching its locations.  I covered a few of them in a September post for Los Angeles…

  • The Golden Girls House

    The Golden Girls House

    ‘ This past weekend, thanks to fellow stalker Owen, I was able to stalk the home used in one of my favorite ‘”‘”’80s TV shows – The Golden Girls.   Being that I was only eight years old at the time The Golden Girls premiered, I probably seem like a very unlikely fan of the show.  But, for some reason,…

  • The “You” Party House

    The “You” Party House

    ‘ The second season of You certainly did a stunning job of showcasing Los Angeles.  From the fabulously chic Anavrin grocery store to the striking Victorian rented by Candace Stone (Ambyr Childers), the city has never looked better onscreen!  One spot that majorly intrigued me was the pad where Joe Goldberg (Penn Badgley) attempted to…

  • The Justin Halpern “Sh*t My Dad Says” Book Signing

    The Justin Halpern “Sh*t My Dad Says” Book Signing

    ‘ A few weeks ago, my best friend Kylee made an off the cuff remark to me about “Sh*t My Dad Says”, the Twitter account that is currently taking the internet world by storm.  And even though the site currently boasts more followers than Lauren Conrad’s, at the time I had never actually heard of…

  • The “Good Luck Charlie” House

    The “Good Luck Charlie” House

    ‘ During the lengthy process of researching the Melissa & Joey house (which many viewers seem to think has been used on another series – you can read my blog on it here), I came across a post on Julia Sweeten’s fabulous website, Hooked on Houses, about the residence where the Duncan family – dad…

  • Trudi’s Apartment Building from “L.A. Story”

    Trudi’s Apartment Building from “L.A. Story”

    ‘ Last month, when I published my post on the location of the iconic talking freeway sign from L.A. Story, a friend named David, whom I met in an acting class years ago, sent me a Facebook message letting me know that the unique, modern-style apartment building where Trudi (Marilu Henner) lived in the flick…

  • South Pasadena Public Library from “Say Anything . . . “

    South Pasadena Public Library from “Say Anything . . . “

    ‘ I was incredibly saddened to learn of the passing of John Mahoney last week.  Not only did I love the actor in pretty much every role he played, but his Hollywood story is such an unusual and admirable one.  After graduating from college, Mahoney tried his hand at a few different occupations including teaching…

  • A Free View of Universal Studio’s “War of the Worlds” Set!

    A Free View of Universal Studio’s “War of the Worlds” Set!

    ‘ Many moons ago, shortly after we first met, Mike, from MovieShotsLA, took me to a place that quickly became one of my very favorite “only in L.A.” spots –  a residential street from which the Universal Studios War of the Worlds plane crash set is visible.  And even though I always make it a…

  • The Governor’s Mansion from “Benson”

    The Governor’s Mansion from “Benson”

    ‘ A few weeks ago while out stalking in Pasadena I stopped to take some pics of the mansion that was used as the home of Governor Gatling in the 1979 television series . I had actually stalked this mansion eight years before when I first moved to Southern California, but had yet to blog…
