    El Pollo del Mar from “L.A. Story”

    ‘ One location that I had been dying to find for years was El Pollo del Mar (yes, that translates to The Chicken of the Sea LOL), aka the supposed Santa Barbara-area resort featured in the 1991 flick L.A. Story.  Try as I might, though, I just could not seem to track the place down. …

  • The “Boy Meets World” House

    The “Boy Meets World” House

    ‘ Last Friday, a fellow stalker named Breanne contacted me to see if I could track down the supposed Philadelphia-area residence where the Matthews family – brothers Cory (Ben Savage), Eric (Will Friedle) and Joshua (Daniel Jacobs), sister Morgan (who was played by both Lily Nicksay and Lindsay Ridgeway), and parents Amy (Betsy Randle) and…

  • Lila’s Apartment Building on Dexter

    Lila’s Apartment Building on Dexter

    ‘ A few months ago, my fiancé and I started watching the Showtime television series Dexter and I have to say that it didn’t take very long for the two of us to become completely and totally obsessed with it.  So, as I’m sure you can probably imagine, I’ve also become pretty obsessed lately with…

  • The Apple Pan from “Beverly Hills, 90210”

    The Apple Pan from “Beverly Hills, 90210”

    ‘ While the Grim Cheaper and I were out and about doing some stalking in the West L.A. area two weekends ago, we happened to pass by The Apple Pan, the exterior of which masqueraded as the original Peach Pit on fave show Beverly Hills, 90210.  Finding ourselves both hungry, we decided to pop in…

  • Woody’s Boathouse Restaurant from “Vanderpump Rules”

    Woody’s Boathouse Restaurant from “Vanderpump Rules”

    ‘ I had high hopes for a lot of rest, relaxation, and reading during my recent trip to Lake Arrowhead.  I wound up doing little else besides shopping and some Vanderpump Rules stalking, though, which, hey, I’m not gonna complain about!  One site I did not pinpoint the exact location of prior to actually setting…

  • The Stuart Building from “That Thing You Do!”

    The Stuart Building from “That Thing You Do!”

    ‘ Back in early October, upon returning home from doing some That Thing You Do! stalking in Orange (you can read my posts on the locations I stalked here, here and here), I popped in my DVD of the 1996 flick to re-watch it for the first time in years.  I was absolutely shocked –…

  • Jack Ryan’s House from “Clear and Present Danger”

    Jack Ryan’s House from “Clear and Present Danger”

    ‘ The Grim Cheaper was anxiously awaiting last Friday’s premiere of the new Amazon series Jack Ryan.  There was practically a countdown going on in our house.  When we finally viewed the first episode, though, my only thought was ‘I want that hour and four minutes of my life back.’  Needless to say, we were…

  • Auntie Em’s Kitchen from “L!fe Happens”

    Auntie Em’s Kitchen from “L!fe Happens”

    ‘ I recently re-watched the 2011 romantic comedy L!fe Happens and I have to say that I enjoyed it much more the second time around.  One of the locations featured in it – Auntie Em’s Kitchen in Eagle Rock – I had actually recognized during my first viewing.  I used to drive by the place…

  • Happy Thanksgiving!

    Happy Thanksgiving!

    ‘ I will be taking the rest of this week off as my mom is having surgery and I will be helping with her recuperation, as well as celebrating Thanksgiving with my family.  I hope all of my fellow stalkers have a fabulous holiday! Until next time, Happy Stalking! ‘

    Pat’s Topanga Grill from “Medium”

    ‘ Way back in December, after stalking the Topanga Canyon house where Paula (Sissy Spacek) lived in the 2008 Yuletide comedy Four Christmases (which I blogged about here), the Grim Cheaper and I passed by Pat’s Topanga Grill and decided to pop in for some breakfast. Because the GC always likes to joke that businesses…
