    The Women’s Exchange from “Sleepless in Seattle”

    ‘ Last year, I had incredible luck getting access to filming locations typically closed to the public.  While visiting New York in April, I was granted tours of three non-accessible places that I literally would have given my eye teeth to see.  Thankfully, none of my friendly tour guides collected on that offer.  (And yes,…

  • The World’s Largest Collection of MM Memorabilia and . . . A New Fiance?

    The World’s Largest Collection of MM Memorabilia and . . . A New Fiance?

    ‘ Last week, while stalking in Hollywood, I dragged my mom to the Hollywood Museum, which is currently exhibiting one of the largest collections of Marilyn Monroe memorabilia in the entire world. The entire drive there I could barely sit still in my seat I was so absolutely floored to see the exhibit, and I…

  • Seinfeld’s Apartment

    Seinfeld’s Apartment

    ‘ Like most filming locations, the site used as Jerry’”‘”‘s apartment building on the hit TV show Seinfeld, can actually be found in Los Angeles, not Manhattan.  It is a nondescript little building that actually does look very reminiscent of New York.  I didn’”‘”‘t recognize the building in person, until I looked at it through the viewfinder of my camera, and…

  • Nick’s Cafe from “Brooklyn Nine-Nine”

    Nick’s Cafe from “Brooklyn Nine-Nine”

    ‘ It is not everyday that a one-minute clip gets me hooked on an entire television series, but that is exactly what happened with Brooklyn Nine-Nine.  A few months back, my friend Kate texted me a hilarious highlight from a Season 5 episode in which Detective Jake Peralta (Andy Samberg) leads a group of criminals…

  • The Bel Air Hotel

    The Bel Air Hotel

    ‘ In honor of the eagerly anticipated issue of New York Magazine that hits newsstands tomorrow, in which Lindsay Lohan recreates Marilyn Monroe‘”‘”‘s very last photo shoot, I thought I’”‘”‘d blog about the Hotel Bel-Air. Photographer Bert Stern held both the 1962 Marilyn Monroe photo shoot and the recent Lindsay Lohan shoot at the Hotel…

  • People’s Revolution

    People’s Revolution

    ‘ This weekend, I dragged my boyfriend to People’”‘”‘s Revolution, the clothing PR firm where Lauren Conrad and Whitney Port now work on my fave show The Hills. I have to admit I was a little nervous walking up to the storefront of People’”‘”‘s Revolution as I was a bit afraid that Kelly Cutrone might…

  • Bridges Auditorium from “The West Wing”

    Bridges Auditorium from “The West Wing”

    ‘ I am one of the few people in the world who did not watch The West Wing when it was on the air.  And boy was I missing out!  The Grim Cheaper and I started binging the series on a whim this past January and now can’t get enough!  The show is so good,…

  • The “WarGames” 7-Eleven

    The “WarGames” 7-Eleven

    ‘ I am not a spontaneous person by nature.  I much prefer planning things out, especially when it comes to vacations.  Typically when going on a trip, I investigate any and all filming that has been done in the area we are heading to.  As I mentioned in Monday’s post, though, our Big Bear Lake…

  • The Meiks’s House from “Frailty”

    The Meiks’s House from “Frailty”

    ‘ One of my absolute, hands-down, favorite movies of all time is the 2001 thriller Frailty, which just so happens to be actor Bill Paxton’s directorial debut.  And I am apparently in good company with that opinion – according to the Contact Music website, James Cameron, Sam Raimi and Stephen King are also huge fans…

  • Bradley’s Mom’s House from “The Morning Show”

    Bradley’s Mom’s House from “The Morning Show”

    ‘ The Morning Show really threw me for a loop, location-wise (as I mentioned in this recent post).  Set in NYC, I got through the entire first episode of the new Apple TV+ series thinking it was shot in the Big Apple, as well.  I did have a couple moments of hesitation in that belief…
