    My Favorite Entertainment Finds of 2018

    ‘ I watch a lot of television and movies throughout the year – as both part of my job and for entertainment.  I am also a voracious reader and listen to a copious amount of podcasts.  2018 brought a slew of new finds.  Some started out as promising, but completely missed the mark [I’m looking…

  • Clark Magnet High School from “Our House”

    Clark Magnet High School from “Our House”

    ‘ Back in March, a fellow stalker named Bill contacted me to ask for some help in tracking down the high school that Kris Witherspoon (my girl Shannen Doherty) attended in the 1986 television series Our House.  In his email, Bill included the links to several episodes of the series on YouTube (because it is…

    Roger Azarian’s House from "Beverly Hills, 90210"

    ‘ One location that I had wanted to stalk pretty much ever since first moving to Southern California was the mansion where Roger Azarian (a pre-Friends Matthew Perry) lived in the Season 1 episode of fave show Beverly Hills, 90210 titled “April Is the Cruelest Month”.  So when fellow stalker Geoff, from the 90210Locations website,…

  • Rest Easy, Luke

    Rest Easy, Luke

    ‘ Coy Luther Perry III – I scrawled that name in my high school notebooks more times than I care to admit, along with his better known moniker, Luke Perry.  My bedroom was also wallpapered with images of the dreamy teen idol.  I even slept on Beverly Hills, 90210 sheets!  And, at the age of…

  • Gray’s Papaya from “Sex and the City”

    Gray’s Papaya from “Sex and the City”

    ‘ You will never catch anyone calling me a “foodie.”  My palate leans much more toward comfort than epicurean with meals of choice consisting of chicken strips and ranch dressing, turkey and mashed potatoes, and hot dogs.  I am a hot dog fanatic.  My favorite spot to grab a ‘furter is Gray’s Papaya in New…

  • Jesse James and Sandra Bullock’s Former House

    Jesse James and Sandra Bullock’s Former House

    ‘ Another Orange County location that the Grim Cheaper and I stalked this past weekend while spending time in Huntington Beach was the former home of actress Sandra Bullock and her ex-husband, West Coast Choppers CEO and reality television star Jesse James.  As it was the GC’s birthday weekend, I was not actually planning on…

    Our Wedding Photographer – Rob Greer

    ‘ Deciding the order in which to publish the various blog posts that I am planning to write about the different movie/filming location elements of my wedding has proved to be a bit of a challenge for me.  Today’s entry was originally going to be about our invitations, but then I realized that I can’t…

    Brenda’s Horseback Riding Center from “Beverly Hills, 90210”

    ‘ One location that I have wanted to stalk for what seems like forever now is the supposed Minnesota-area equestrian center where a childhood Brenda Walsh (a young actress stood in for my girl Shannen Doherty in this episode, but I, unfortunately, cannot seem to find her name anywhere online) went horseback riding in the…

  • Kate’s Apartment from “Picture Perfect”

    Kate’s Apartment from “Picture Perfect”

    ‘ I wish I could say I’ve never met a Jennifer Aniston movie I didn’t like, but that is not the case.  In fact, the opposite is more true – I’ve rarely met one I truly did enjoy.  Picture Perfect fits into the “didn’t like” category.  If you haven’t seen the film, this review Paul…
