Hotel Normandie from “Vanderpump Rules”
‘ Vanderpump Rules is like a fine wine – it just keeps getting better with age. Six seasons in and the show still hasn’t peaked! Well, in my opinion, at least. Not only do the storylines continually get more and more compelling (and ridiculous – “My boyfriend can hang a TV in under seven minutes. …

My Latest Interview with US Modernist Radio
‘ Last month, I headed out to the Skylark Hotel in Palm Springs to meet with George Smart, of the US Modernist website, and record a bit for his popular podcast, US Modernist Radio. While sitting by the pool in the Skylark’s fabulously retro courtyard (which could not have felt more appropriate), George and I…

Anavrin from “You”
‘ I loved Season 1 of You, but Season 2 was even more gripping, engrossing and enjoyable! I think a large part of that had to do with Anavrin (pronounced “uh-nah-vrin”), the impossibly idyllic grocery store where Joe Goldberg (Penn Badgley) landed a job in episode 1, “A Fresh Start,” and worked throughout.

Killarney Market from Michael Buble’s “Haven’t Met You Yet” Video

Sure, we…

The House from “The Brady Brides”

Shakers Family Restaurant from “Old School”
‘ Today’s locale is another one of those facepalm spots. For ages, I had been trying to track down the interior of the diner where Mitch (Owen Wilson) and the boys discussed saving their fraternity in the 2003 comedy Old School. While I had long known that Montrose Bakery & Café (which, sadly, Yelp is…

The St. Regis Hotel
‘ Last year while visiting Manhattan, I dragged my boyfriend out to the posh St. Regis New York hotel on 55th Street. I had wanted to see the St. Regis not so much because it is an oft-used filming location, but because my girl Marilyn Monroe stayed there back in 1954 while on location in…

Lynn Bracken’s House
‘ Thanks to E.J. over at The Movieland Directory, I was able to do a bit more LA Confidential stalking this weekend. As I mentioned in a previous post, LA Confidential is one of my mom’”‘”‘s favorite movies of all time. She has always been in love with the houses and bungalows used in the…

Dennis Feinstein Headquarters from “Parks and Recreation”
‘ Though I chronicled the main locations used on Parks and Recreation pretty extensively for Los Angeles magazine in March, I still have a few of the series’ less prominent locales stockpiled in my backlog and figured it was about time that I covered them. While watching the Season 7 episode titled “Save JJ’s,” I…
