  • The “Big” School

    The “Big” School

    ‘ Located just around the corner from the two main houses used in the movie Big is Cliffside Park Elementary School #6 – the elementary school attended by Josh Baskin (aka Tom Hanks) and his best friend Billy (aka Jared Rushton) in the 1988 flick.  So, since we were already in the area, Owen, my fiancé,…

  • The Brothers and Sisters House

    The Brothers and Sisters House

    ‘ Got a last week from who wanted me to do some stalking of the house used in the ABC series . I’”‘”‘d actually gotten this challenge once before, but since I had never really watched the show, I hadn’”‘”‘t put much effort into stalking it. But then I saw the house on and he…

  • Jonathan’s Apartment from “Mannequin”

    Jonathan’s Apartment from “Mannequin”

    ‘ I wanted to go to Philadelphia for one reason and one reason only – to stalk Mannequin locations.  The 1987 comedy is one of my all-time favorites.  I loved it as a kid and love it even more today.  It has pretty much everything I could ever want in a film.  A mannequin that…

  • Jan’s Duplex from “Beautiful Girls”

    Jan’s Duplex from “Beautiful Girls”

    ‘ One of the locations that I was most excited about stalking while in Minnesota three weeks ago (and I can hardly even believe that it’s already been three weeks!) was the duplex where Jan (aka Martha Plimpton) lived in fave movie Beautiful Girls.  The residence is actually located in Hopkins, a city about thirteen…

  • Anavrin from “You”

    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.  The charming…

  • Mr. Bones Pumpkin Patch . . . A Second Time

    Mr. Bones Pumpkin Patch . . . A Second Time

    ‘ This past weekend, I dragged the Grim Cheaper out to one of my all time favorite Halloween-themed stalking locations – Mr. Bones Pumpkin Patch in West Hollywood.  The family owned and operated patch, which is located on a vacant plot of land on North Doheny Drive in between Keith and Harland Avenues, has been…

  • The Former Site of the “Doogie Howser, M.D.” House

    The Former Site of the “Doogie Howser, M.D.” House

    ‘ This past (dismal and dreary) Sunday afternoon, after stalking the Jack & Jill house, which I blogged about on Tuesday, I dragged the Grim Cheaper a few blocks south to stalk a location that I had been wanting to see in person for years – the Howser residence, where teenage prodigy Dr. Doogie Howser…

  • Vacation Homes of the Stars

    Vacation Homes of the Stars

    ‘ Since the early 1930′”‘”‘s, Palm Springs has been a favorite desert oasis for the Hollywood elite.  With its perfect winter and springtime weather, fabulous shopping, and beautiful desert ambiance, it’”‘”‘s not very hard to see why.  While visiting the desert this weekend, I dragged my boyfriend on my very own little stalking tour of Downtown Palm Springs.  Much to…

  • Monrovia High School from “A Cinderella Story”

    Monrovia High School from “A Cinderella Story”

    ‘ My taste in movies is about as mature and refined as my palate, which favors chicken strips and ranch dressing above all else.  Case in point – I am obsessed with the 2004 tween romance A Cinderella Story.  Chad Michael Murray?  Hilary Duff on roller skates?  A high school love story?  A pink ‘50s…

  • The Lethal Weapon 2 House

    The Lethal Weapon 2 House

    ‘ Since I am constantly dragging my boyfriend on my stalking adventures every single weekend, I decided to finally stalk a place he would enjoy – the house on stilts from Lethal Weapon 2. This is the same house that Mel Gibson attaches to his pick-up truck via cables, drives away, and pulls right down…
