  • The Cooper House from “Forever Young”

    The Cooper House from “Forever Young”

    ‘ Today’s locale is a bit of a long time coming.  In my early March post about the bungalow where Daniel McCormick (Mel Gibson) lived in Forever Young, I mentioned that I had stalked a different house from the 1992 movie – the one where Claire Cooper (Jamie Lee Curtis) and her son, Nat (Elijah…

  • Caliente Tropics Resort from “Alpha Dog”

    Caliente Tropics Resort from “Alpha Dog”

    ‘ Another location that I dragged the Grim Cheaper out to stalk while visiting the Palm Springs area two weekends ago was the Caliente Tropics Resort which appeared in the ultra-disturbing 2006 movie Alpha Dog. I found this location thanks to fave stalking book Hollywood Escapes: The Moviegoer’s Guide to Exploring Southern California’s Great Outdoors,…

  • Catherine Willows’ House from “CSI: Crime Scene Investigation”

    Catherine Willows’ House from “CSI: Crime Scene Investigation”

    ‘ I’ll never forget the first time I saw CSI: Crime Scene Investigation.  It was back in 2003 and my parents had come home from a random stop at the video store (remember those?) with a DVD of the series’ inaugural season in hand.  I had not heard of the show at the time and…

  • Photos

    ‘ A few of you have been asking why the photos on my site no longer open up to a larger size. And the answer is . . . I have no idea. 🙁 I think it has something to do with WordPress, but at the moment neither my boyfriend nor I can figure out…

  • Taking a Day Off!

    Taking a Day Off!

    ‘ The Grim Cheaper and I spent the past weekend visiting my parents in Palm Springs, so I, unfortunately, did not have time to write a new blog post for today.  But I did run into actor Jeremy London while at The Living Desert on Sunday, which was a total thrill!  He was incredibly nice and not…

  • Sierra Madre Pioneer Cemetery from “Twin Peaks”

    Sierra Madre Pioneer Cemetery from “Twin Peaks”

    ‘ As I mentioned in my post last month about The Old Place restaurant, thanks to fellow stalker/David-Lynch-aficionado Brad, from the Brad D Studios website, I recently discovered that fave television series Twin Peaks was shot almost in its entirety in Southern California.  Because I have long been a Twin Peaks fanatic, I was beyond…

  • The Neon Museum Las Vegas

    The Neon Museum Las Vegas

    ‘ I was able to check two major items off of my Stalking Bucket List while I was in Sin City this past March.  First was seeing Britney Spears’ “ . . . Baby One More Time” costume at the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino.  Second was touring the Neon Museum Las Vegas.  Both experiences…

  • Bad Day!

    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…

  • The Cunningham House from “Happy Days”

    The Cunningham House from “Happy Days”

    ‘ I consider myself a seasoned stalker.  I think most would agree.  Somehow though, until last month, I had never stalked one of the most iconic homes in television history.  I am talking about the Cunningham residence from Happy Days.  I did not even realize my colossal blunder until I was contacted by The Meredith…

  • Skylight Books from “Veep”

    Skylight Books from “Veep”

    ‘ While we are on the subject of historic book shops featured in Washington, D.C.-based productions (you can read my post on Idle Time Books from A Few Good Men here), I would be remiss if I did not mention a bookseller that popped up on my new favorite show, Veep.  The Grim Cheaper and…
