Falken’s Cabin from "WarGames"
‘ So I realize I am like one of maybe ten holdouts left in the world, but I still have an AOL account. I know, I know – 1995 called, it wants its email address back. I think I’m finally ready to give it up, though, because the search function straight. up. SUCKS. Formerly, it…

Home Restaurant from “Raines”
‘ Every once in a while a show comes along that immediately hooks me. Such was the case with Raines, an extremely short-lived police procedural boasting a scant seven-episode run. I was unaware of the NBC series at the time of its original airing in March 2007. In fact, I only learned of it this…

William Desmond Taylor’s Former House
‘ Last Saturday, my mom, the Grim Cheaper and I attended a book signing for William J. Mann’s latest tome, Tinseltown: Murder, Morphine and Madness at the Dawn of Hollywood. My mom had heard about the event on our favorite desert radio show, The Bill Feingold Show Featuring Kevin Holmes, and thought I would be…

“The Bedroom Window” Apartment
‘ I am always on the lookout for new thrillers and scary movies to watch, especially during this time of year. While researching Baltimore locations in preparation for our recent trip to the Old Line State, I came across information about the brownstone apartment featured in The Bedroom Window. I had never seen the 1987…

The Urban Outfitters from “National Treasure”
‘ Today’s stalking venture is not only six years in the making, but a cross-country endeavor! Way back in January 2013, as the Grim Cheaper and I were preparing to move from Pasadena to Palm Springs, I caught National Treasure on TV and immediately recognized the exterior of the Urban Outfitters in the flick as…

Having a Carrie Bradshaw Moment
‘ I have three pretty big articles due in the coming days for both Discover Los Angeles and L.A. Magazine, and am having a bit of a Carrie Bradshaw moment. I can finally utter her famous words, “I’m on deadline!” Because of said deadline(s), and an upcoming trip to L.A. – the trip is actually…

Ryden’s House from “Post Grad”
‘ Another location that I dragged the Grim Cheaper out to stalk while in the San Fernando Valley area this past weekend was the ranch-style house where Ryden Malby (aka Alexis Bledel) and her extremely odd, but extremely loveable family – dad Walter (aka Michael Keaton), mom Carmella (aka Jane Lynch), brother Hunter (aka Bobby…

Nicole Simpson’s Condo from “The People v. O.J. Simpson: American Crime Story”
‘ Today’s location is one of the most interesting that I’ve ever uncovered! As I mentioned in Friday’s post about O.J. Simpson’s mansion from The People v. O.J. Simpson: American Crime Story (which proved to be rather timely considering the “buried knife” story that was released that same day), the Grim Cheaper and I are…

Gray’s Papaya
‘ I know I have blogged about this location briefly once before in my , but I think this is one location that is worthy of its very own blog post. So here goes. 🙂 I have long been a fan of Gray’”‘”‘s Papaya, a small hot dog stand/restaurant chain that was started in 1973…

Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes’ Former Mansion
‘ I recently finished reading Tom Cruise: An Unauthorized Biography which was written by Andrew Morton, the legendary celebrity biographer who also penned Diana: Her True Story in Her Own Words, and I have to say that it was absolutely FABULOUS! I honestly cannot more highly recommend it. Not only was the book, which became…
