Joe’s Apartment from the Second Season of “You”
‘ The second season of You couldn’t have been more quintessentially L.A.! Nowhere is that more evident than in the apartment building that served as Joe Goldberg’s (Penn Badgley) new West Coast home. As a reader commented about the place to me last week on Facebook, “It seems like I’ve passed it 284739484 times in…

‘ Today’s Los Angeles magazine post was written in honor of the legendary actor Eli Wallach, who passed away yesterday at the age of 98.

Jimmy’s Restaurant from “Grandfathered”
‘ The Grim Cheaper and I were inundated with new shows we love during the Fall 2015 television season. Virtually every single one we sampled became must-see TV for us, including Blind Spot, Limitless, The Grinder, Quantico, The Family (which technically didn’t start until early 2016), Oil (really bummed that one was cancelled), Wicked City…

Anoakia Mansion from “Doppelganger”
‘ There’s no denying that Doppelganger is a pretty horrible movie. But part of the fun of the Halloween season is watching ridiculously terrible horror flicks from years past – and stalking their locations, of course. I had long been on the hunt for the psychiatric institution from the 1993 thriller and was given a…

‘ One location that I have been on the lookout for for over eighteen years now is the Paris restaurant where Donna Martin (aka Tori Spelling) and Brenda Walsh (aka Shannen Doherty) ate veal brains in the Season 3 episode of Beverly Hills, 90210 titled “Too Little, Too Late/Paris, 75001”. Because almost two decades have…

Mitchell and Cameron’s House from “Modern Family”
‘ The second locale that fellow stalker Robert, from the site , tracked down from fave new series was the Spanish-style duplex where Mitchell Pritchett (aka Jesse Tyler Ferguson) and Cameron Tucker (aka Eric Stonestreet), and their newly adopted daughter, Lily, live on the show. Because I have always had a thing for Mediterranean-style homes…

Christmas Tree Lane
‘ Last December, I blogged about a house in Altadena known as the Balian Mansion, or, as I like to call it, the real Clark W. Griswold house (pictured above). And even though the mansion has appeared only briefly onscreen – in the movie Obsessed and in an early episode of Beverly Hills, 90210 –…

The “It’s A Wonderful Life” Train Station
‘ If there is anything I have learned over the past ten-plus years that I have lived in Southern California, it is that stalking tips often come from the most unlikely of places. Take for instance this past weekend. The Grim Cheaper’s father has long been a collector of model trains, so last Sunday afternoon…
