A Birthday Day Off!
‘ I spent all of this past weekend celebrating my birthday (which was fabulous – the GC even bought me a new camera, which I LOVE!), so I was unable to write a new post for today. But I will be back tomorrow with a whole new location. Until next time, Happy Stalking! ‘

The Hartunian House from “Alpha Dog”
‘ Another Palm-Springs-area locale that fellow stalker/location scout Scott Trimble, of the STS Locations website, helped me to find recently was the residence where Frankie Ballenbacher’s (aka Justin Timberlake’s) good friend/”Witness #11”, Susan Hartunian (aka Dominique Swain), lived with her utterly clueless and apathetic mother, Tiffany Hartunian (aka ER’s Alex Kingston), in the 2006 movie…

The “Ghost Dad” House
‘ Long before I ever moved to Southern California, I purchased the Ultimate Hollywood Tour Book and was absolutely mesmerized by what I found inside. One whole chapter of the tome is dedicated to filming locations in Pasadena and its environs and when my family and I did relocate to the Crown City in 2000,…

Rod Tidwell’s House from “Jerry Maguire”
‘ People often ask me about my most-wanted unfound locations. Currently, the one that tops my list is the mansion where this Beverly Hills, 90210 publicity photo was taken. But for several years, the locale that held that spot was the Mediterranean-style residence where Rod Tidwell (Cuba Gooding Jr.) and his wife, Marcee (Regina King),…

Halloween 2017
‘ I’ve made no secret of my love for Big Little Lies over the past couple of months (you can read my many posts on its filming locations here, here, here, and here), so it should come as no surprise that the HBO miniseries figured into my and the Grim Cheaper’s 2017 Halloween costumes. Interestingly…

The Site of Sanford and Son Salvage from “Sanford and Son”
‘ There’s pretty much nothing I relish more than diving into the nitty-gritty when proving or disproving a location – especially if that location is from an old production and/or is no longer in existence. I love the challenge of it. I recently had the pleasure of delving into one such case thanks to a…

Where You Are Almost Guaranteed A Britney Sighting!
‘ Ever since she shimmied down a hallway in her video (which was filmed entirely at Venice High School, by the way) I have been obsessed with BritBrit. I can’”‘”‘t tell you how many times I have dressed up as Britney for Halloween! And I was even an extra in the Britney Spears movie! Nowadays Britney…

Alverno High School from “Passport to Paris”
‘ As I promised in Tuesday’s post, here is a photograph of me dressed as Buffy the Vampire Slayer for Halloween back in 1992. My mom made the costume for me by hand and she made it absolutely PERFECT, so I was especially excited to tell Kristy Swanson about it when I met her this…

Terry’s Apartment from “Jumpin’ Jack Flash”
‘ I’ve made no secret over the years of my love for Jumpin’ Jack Flash. (You can read the posts I’ve done on the 1986 comedy’s locations here, here, here, and here.) Whoopi Goldberg is literally perfection in her role as zany New York bank employee Terry Dolittle and I pretty much go around quoting…

Bad Day!
‘ This past Friday was an exceptionally bad day for me and my family. Not only did I have to take my dad to the emergency room, but while we were there we received a phone call that my uncle was being rushed into the OR for an emergency bypass surgery – it ended up…
