Blue Blues Café from “Big Little Lies”
‘ Two episodes in to the latest season of Big Little Lies and I am still missing Blue Blues, the café that figured so prominently in Season 1. As the Huffington Post recently stated, the loss has left a “Venti cappuccino-sized hole” in my heart. So I figured it was only proper to devote a…

Forest Lawn Memorial Park Hollywood Hills
‘ I was all set to publish a blog post today about the Old School house, but a drive through Burbank yesterday evening caused that plan to go awry.

Rickie’s Alley from the “So-Called Angels” Episode of “My So-Called Life”

Halloween 2017
‘ I’ve made no secret of my love for Big Little Lies over the past couple of months (you can read my many posts on its filming locations here, here, here, and here), so it should come as no surprise that the HBO miniseries figured into my and the Grim Cheaper’s 2017 Halloween costumes. Interestingly…
