    ‘ Happy New Year to all of my fellow stalkers!  While most people are currently looking ahead, I’m spending today looking back – at my best entertainment finds of 2019.  Read on for my favorite book, podcast, movie and television discoveries of the last year and where to find them.  As my longtime readers know,…

  • Catalina’s Hamilton Cove

    Catalina’s Hamilton Cove

    ‘ While vacationing in Catalina this past week, I, of course, spent much of my time asking the local merchants which celebrities had been spotted on the island.  And I just about died when one store owner told me that Michael Buble, who has recently replaced Josh Duhamel as the celebrity love of my life, had…

  • Jesse and Becky’s Honeymoon Send-Off Location from “Full House”

    Jesse and Becky’s Honeymoon Send-Off Location from “Full House”

    ‘ I have grown used to productions playing fast and loose with location continuity, but was still flummoxed when I came across a thread back in January 2016 on a now defunct website in which a commenter asked if anyone knew which residence was used as the Tanner family home in the Season 4 episode…

    Casbah Café from “A Lot Like Love”

    ‘ Today’s blog is going to be a short one as I am heading out to the eye doctor in a bit to have my eyes dilated, which, second to being on an airplane, is my least favorite activity in the entire world. Speaking of flying, US Magazine recently published an article about celebrity riders…

    Bahooka Family Restaurant from “Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas”

    ‘ This past Sunday morning, my mom emailed me a link to a Los Angeles Magazine article about the upcoming closure of a veritable San Gabriel Valley institution, Bahooka Family Restaurant in Rosemead, with the admonishment, “You’d better take pictures! It HAS to have been in movies.” And she was right. Bahooka has starred in…

  • The Drug Store and Beauty Salon from “Beautiful Girls”

    The Drug Store and Beauty Salon from “Beautiful Girls”

    ‘ Another Stillwater location that I was incredibly excited about stalking was the drugstore where Gina Barrisano (aka Rosie O’Donnell) spewed a very choicely-worded rant at Willie Conway (aka Timothy Hutton) and Tommy “Birdman” Rowland (aka Matt Dillon) over their superficial treatment of women in fave movie Beautiful Girls.  Fellow stalker Owen had actually managed…

  • Willy Beachum’s House from “Fracture”

    Willy Beachum’s House from “Fracture”

    ‘ Back in early November, a fellow stalker named Eileen posted a comment on my site challenging me to find the residence where Willy Beachum (aka cutie Ryan Gosling) lived in the 2007 thriller Fracture, which is one of my all-time favorite movies.  In an extremely ironic twist of fate, at the exact moment that…

  • A New York State of Mind . . .

    A New York State of Mind . . .

    ‘ The Grim Cheaper and I are heading to New York for the week and I could NOT be more excited!  Manhattan is pretty much my favorite place in the world and not only has it been almost seven years since our last visit, but we are also meeting up with some of our closest…

  • Someone Else Had Good Luck This Weekend! 🙂

    ‘ While Oscar 2008 was almost a complete bust for me, I am happy to report that Hilarry from the blog “Think Pink” had a ton of luck stalking this weekend in LA – much better luck than I had!!! Many props to her! 🙂 You can read her Oscar post here. Thanks, Hilarry, for…

    Stalking the 2011 Academy Awards

    ‘ As I have mentioned countless times before on this blog, Oscar Weekend is, hands down, my favorite weekend of the entire year.  Hollywood just seems to come alive during Oscar Weekend and I honestly cannot get enough of it.  And this year was no different.  My Oscar stalking began early this past Saturday morning…
