Spencer’s House and Barn from “Pretty Little Liars”
‘ Though all of the homes featured on Pretty Little Liars are pretty darn amazing design-wise, my personal favorite, hands-down, is the farm-like residence where Spencer Hastings (Troian Bellisario) and her family live. So when I began tracking down the locales used in the pilot, which was shot in Vancouver, Spencer’s pad was at the…

Westside Pavilion from “Christmas with the Kranks”
‘ Some cities know how to do Christmas right. Sadly, Palm Springs is not one of them. As I mentioned last year, the desert just seems to be lacking when it comes to Christmas décor. Yes, there are lights and garland strung in certain sections of our local mall and colorful wreaths hung from a…

The “She’s Out of Control” House
‘ Last week I enlisted fellow stalker Chas, from the It’sFilmedThere website, to help me find locations from the 1989 teen comedy She’s Out of Control. Now I should mention here that while I absolutely LOVED LOVED LOVED She’s Out of Control growing up, according to the movie’s IMDB trivia page film critic Gene Siskel…

The Newhall Mansion from “Charmed”
‘ Another location that the Grim Cheaper and I visited two Saturdays ago while doing some stalking in the Heritage Valley area was the Newhall Mansion, formerly the Piru Mansion, which fellow stalker Chas, from the ItsFilmedThere website, had told me about a few weeks prior. The Newhall Mansion has appeared in countless productions over…

The Bar from Michael Jackson’s “Beat It” Video
‘ UPDATE: While I originally thought that the video’”‘”‘s pool hall scenes were also shot at this location, that is not the case. The pool segments were actually shot at the Brunswick Billiard Academy, which was formerly located in the basement of the San Fernando Building at 400 South Main Street in downtown Los Angeles. …

Donna’s House from “Rosewood”
‘ I’ve never met a police procedural I didn’t like. When one centers around an insanely charming male lead who constantly (and comically) spars with his cynical female partner, it’s a guarantee it will make my top ten. Such was the case with the FOX drama Rosewood, which began airing in 2015. For those who…

The “Beaches” Mansion
‘ One location that I have been asked about repeatedly ever since I first started my blog almost four years ago (and I CANNOT even believe that it has been that long!!!) is the large Tudor-style mansion where Hillary Whitney Essex (aka Barbara Hershey) lived in the 1988 tearjerker Beaches. And while it had long…

The Friends Apartment
‘ Another one of my must-see New York filming locations from my first trip to the Big Apple was the Apartment. The apartment is actually located right in the same neighborhood as Carrie’”‘”‘s brownstone and SJP’”‘”‘s house. I could hardly contain myself as we walked up to the building – I felt like I had…

The Grease High School
‘ Growing up I absolutely loved the movie Grease. My friend Nat and I used to dress up in her mother’”‘”‘s wigs and act out scenes from Grease in front of the TV. So how excited was I to discover the location of Rydell High School in my go-to stalking book “The Ultimate Hollywood Tour…

Moving Day!
‘ My parents officially moved to Palm Springs today, marking the first time in over a decade that we will not be living in the same zip code. Watching their U-Haul drive off was one of the saddest moments I’ve experienced as of late, so I was not in a really good place to write…
